Why Update Your iPhone?

When the iPhone was released, Apple promised to improve its functionality over time with new applications. 5 months later, we have the Wi-Fi iTunes store, and that's it. And personally, I've found that my iPhone has become more unstable than it was at launch. So, as 9 to 5 Mac asks, what is the reason to upgrade again?

I'm sure Apple will eventually roll out a killer new application for the iPhone. But with the SDK and the release of third-party apps still several months away, there is little reason to not disconnect from Apple's "bug fixes" and jailbreak your phone.

iPhone 1.1.2 Still Not Released Via iTunes

As of Sunday evening, the 1.1.2 firmware update is still not accessible by iTunes, yet downloadable from various other sources. Strange.

1.1.2

Several sites are reporting the 1.1.2 firmware upgrade drops tomorrow (Nov 9), with no new features for us Americans except bug fixes. For some reason it bugs me that Apple never says what's being fixed.

In Brief: iPhone Update!

iPhone update v1.01 is finally here! I features "minor" software and security fixes. One of the fixes was hardly minor, as it was a major headache before the update. I am now able to listen to my iPod while surfing Digg.com today. It didn't crash once. The iPhone didn't like Ajax so much before. Hallelujah.
