IPhone OS 3.0 Software Download: During WWDC 2009

IPhone OS 3.0 Software Download: During WWDC 2009

By: Daniel Chubb | June 8, 2009 | 17 Comments

Lets first point out that this is just a rumor that was submitted to PR news, its in no way officially confirmed by Apple, that would be later today at WWDC 2009 if it happens.

One PR user reported a tip that the iPhone OS 3.0 software would be released on June 8th 2009, and more importantly it should be available for download directly following Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference.

They went on to say that they work for Apple corporate in California – apparently – and they recommend downloading the software at a certain time, which makes sense considering past download congestion.

You can see what the tipster said below; let us know your thoughts on this rumor.

IPhone OS 3.0 will be released on June 8th 2009. I work at Apple corporate in California. This software will be available for download directly following the conference. I recommend dowloading the software at 6:00 because that was the least congested download time last year.

    i was reading on another message board and they said the last update was available at 6pm (1800) regardless what time zone you are in on June 17th. Not sure if this is true but just as a FYI.
