iPhone 2.2 is out...

[Surely]

"Pressing the Home button on any home screen, brings you to the first home screen" = a sick hidden feature not known before.....

Not hidden....it's listed in the feature list. See post #8

You can change the Google search toolbar to Yahoo! if you want. In Safari's settings.

Was that there before?

It's only been there since about a year before the first generation iPhone went on sale.

(someone seems to ask that question after every update)

as speculated when you delete an app it asks you to rate it...

Well I guess I'm the lucky one this time.


Snarky much?

Not being a smartass or anything, but how are walking directions any different than driving directions? Does it give your short cuts like "walk into dead-end and hop fence on left. Ignore dog barking and just run!"?

another great comment hahaha

sometimes there are one way streets you can walk both ways on and cars have to find another route. There are many different situations where you'd want walking specific directions over driving.

OMG, downloading now.

Does safari still crash on this page

[rorschach]

They made some changes to the App Store as well:

 

[mcmanus7]

[GottaLoveApple4]

Street view is awesome and is so fast!

Let's see the blackberry do that.

It also wouldn't be to safe walking on highways

It loads that page fine. No Crash.

 

[CBR900RR]

Not for me.

Not crashing on 2.2??????

 

[efice32]

I second Safari being much much much "snappier" and based on limited usage so far it seems much more stable. I'm not worrying about it crashing as I go through pages. Also if you rotate to/from landscape view while a page is loading you don't feel like you're gonna crash the browser...it just changes perfectly and quickly.

[pranavss11]

So whats the verdict people?

 

[heaven]

Not for me.

confirmed. It doesn't crash

+1 street view is VERY fast

blackberrys can do street view through the google maps app they have, but it looks nothing like this (friend has one and I've used it)

 

[CBR900RR]

Loading now, cannot wait

 

[Justinerator]

oh dear lord this is going to get loooong!

it's only a matter of time that an idiot will hop on the thread with only the intention of flaming it...

Anyways, it's installing right now on my 3G. Does e-mail now support landscape mode? Did I read that right? I have to admit, in wanting to update it so badly, I jumped over the actual changes/additions... haha

 

[okrelayer]

awesome! I cant wait to give Safari a ridiculous spin tonight, to test how well it holds up! Its been a love/hate relationship with Safari recently!

 

[Wolffie]

They made some changes to the App Store as well:

You can flick through the multiple screen shoots of the app too!

Mostly it's the same, other than not bothering to avoid one way streets and such. It's the public transit part I'm excited about.
