  1. One less bar for me but the contacts are much more responsive. The overall response of the phone is much more in line with the 2g that I had. Hopefully this update also addressed the mail malfunctions. It will take time to see if it did.

  2. 1. Didn’t application updates use to allow an “Update All” selection? I thought it did, but it doesn’t now. Maybe I’m wrong.

    @The Other Steve,
    Don’t know what the max is, butI currently have 4 pages of apps. Not sure what you’re looking at.

  3. Today after a week’s vacation I was sitting in my office, across the street from City Hall in Philadelphia, in 2 Penn Center, with no 3G bars at all-EDGE only.

    This is amusing because I took a day trip with my wife to Baltimore on Friday, and had nice, strong 3G reception while in the Inner Harbor. I mean, literally, in the harbor, on a ferry, in the middle of the freaking water. Nice, strong reception all the way through to Fell’s Point.

    Nice to know I can get better 3G reception in a boat in the harbor staring up the Domino’s Sugar sign than I can get in my office looking over at City Hall. A block and half from the AT&T;store.

  4. 2+ hours to backup/install/restore to 2.02.

    All 3rd party apps crash on launch.

    Now I get to spend the rest of the night doing a clean install and setting everything up from scratch. All games in progress, lost. All data in Epocrates, lost. All personalization of any kind, lost.

    Thanks Apple.

    At this point the ‘killer app’ for the iPhone would be one that backs up and restores all data for 3rd party apps at the tap of a button.

  5. On the other side of things……on my iPod Touch…..update went quickly….it was done by the time dinner was over. All programs work and run smoothly….no crashes at all.

  6. Updated to iPhone 2.0.2, and now the iPhone doesn’t show up in itunes anymore. Turned the phone on and off, rebooted, even re-downloaded iTunes 7.7.1. Nothing. I can’t sync the iPhone. Any suggestions?

    try unplugging your keyboard before hooking up your iPhone..

    question-
    I had the 1st rev iPhone and when someone would send a picture message it would send me to viewyourmessage.com to view it, but with my iPhone 3G it doesn’t send anything; ATT said its my 3G chip so I went and got a replacement iPhone and its still doesn’t work.. I’m I the only one with this problem?
