What time will iPhone 3.0 be available? This is the big question today, with Apple only saying that it will be sometime today (June 17, Wednesday).” I have been on my iTunes now for about an hour and I have been clicking update every five minutes, but still nothing.
We do not understand why Apple have not informed anyone what time the download will be made available, but one thing is certain, when it is here, Apple’s servers will get hit very hard. If anyone can see the download yet or if they know what time it is coming, then please let us know by adding your comment below.
The new iPhone 3.0 OS will come with 100 new features, which aims to make the iPhone better than ever. Some of the updates will only work with the new iPhone 3G S, which is due for release on June 19. One of the features that will only work on the new handset is the voice control.
As of writing this article, I have pressed update about four times in iTunes, but still nothing. I can see myself getting bored with doing this after a while, but I need to try this new iPhone 3.0 update out.

Give it another 35 minutes man, its not the 17th in California, I’m in Georgia and was praying that it was gonna be eastern time, but I’m betting 12am in Cali. If not expect like 6 or 9, but those would be stupid on apple’s part because this will let the traffic smooth a little. i do feel sorry when for the IT guys when it releases.
Well its 1.45pm in London UK and no upgrade yet!
I looked on the O2 website which is the carrier for iphone this side of the pond and it gives instructions on how to prep your iphone for ‘this evening’.
Guess the rumours that it will be released around 5 or 6pm GMT could be correct …..
Hey I wold like to answer everyones question but saying that i was on the phone with apple and they said it will be coming out 3 o’clock eastern time
Ok guess i was wrong, im going to sleepp. it’ll be ready when i wake up
Same with me, I live at the most eastern part of north america, so June 17th hits us first. I checked at 12:00AM my time, and no update so i figured it must of been at 12:00AM Cupertino time. So far it\’s currently 12:12 AM in Cupertino and still no update.
Call me antsy, but your 4 click to update is surmassed by my about 400 clicks of update. I don\’t know how much longer i can pull this out seeming it\’s about 4:45 AM here now.
i hope it is release soon, all i know is iTunes is giving me the whole \”Your iPhone software is up to date. iTunes will automatically check for an update on 24/06/09.\” I really hope apple doesnt disapoint.

Sorry for the above post and the spelling / punctuality error’s. It’s been a late night, and i had to copy-paste which put in all the annoying back-slashes.

C’mon apple - what time is it available?????
It’s the 17th June already!
We’re on it very soon. Hang in their my friends. You’re gonna love it!
I am in the UK and there is no sign of the update happening yet. It will be interesting to see if apple techs can cope with the inital demand when ever they do decide to make it available.
Spain 11.00 AM. No update so far… Aiming for patience…
Nothing yet… Come on Apple, it’s time to launch it so that those of us that want to miss the rush can get it…
3:28 PST in Cali still nothing
