iPhone 3G Software 2.0 Fix in 3 Weeks
Filed under: Cell Phones, Handsets
The Apple iPhone 2.0 software has been a nightmare for thousands of phone users since the day they updated, with many problems including the extreme lag that we have had, friends, Product Reviews readers have had and hundreds on the Apple official forum.
While we all want our problems to go away from the nice new iPhone 3G or first generation iPhones that got the 2.0 update, it is not that simple.
When will we see another firmware update to fix the many reported problems and complete slow down of the iPhone?
Today one Product Reviews reader claims to have been told that an update is coming in 3 weeks:
My iPhone 3g is much slower than my wife’s iPhone 1. It also fails to make calls and when I switch from wireless to Edge or 3G I have to reboot in order to get any eMail to work.
I went to Apple and they have heard all this before and say a new update should be available in 3 weeks. I’m not holding my breath.
Lets hope it comes in no longer than 3 weeks, although personally many iPhone owners want the next firmware now. If you have an update from Apple, please let us know in the comments or view more iPhone 3G news here.

First off I love technology and how it just keeps moving along. Apple is not a bad guy here. We want these updates here and now. The truth is this stuff takes time and we either test it and work on it or stay with what you had before. I do think the 2.0 release was almost Vista like. As consumers though we have to accept that we cannot have a perfect world and let apple do the improvements. I think a good idea would be for apple to let people choose to go back a software version on all new releases. Not everyone is equipped with troubleshooting skills and can handle the occasional glitch. The only way to work out all the kinks though is to release this stuff and let it sink or swim. If you want perfect though ask yourself this when was the last time you where perfect in the everything you do.
