JamesL Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 For all of you iPhone (and iPod touch) users here, just wanted to remind you that OS 3.0 is available today for upgrade (free for iPhones, $9.95 for touches). This adds a whole bunch of items such as: - Cut/copy/paste!! - Landscape support in all the major native apps (mail, SMS, etc) - System wide search (spotlight). - Voice recording app. - Applications can now "push" data to your phone even if you are not running that program. - Plus more. I have been using 3.0 for a while as a developer... it is nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like you had to remind us. Fun day today. True... I actually did meet up with some friends last friday who actually had no idea that OS 3.0 was coming, or what it had in it!

JamesL Posted June 19, 2009 Author Share Posted June 19, 2009 Hopefully the lines are a lot shorter than last year when the 3G came out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ACampbell Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 I went this morning right at 7 and the line was too long for me. Gonna have to go back later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesL Posted June 19, 2009 Author Share Posted June 19, 2009 I am surprised, as this wasn't that radical of a hardware change ... and I am sure there are a decent amount of people not eligible for the full subsidized price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesL Posted June 19, 2009 Author Share Posted June 19, 2009 Oh, and don't feel bad for not staying. For the 3G I stood in line twice, as the first time (on release day) it took so long that I had to leave for an appointment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesL Posted June 19, 2009 Author Share Posted June 19, 2009 Az must still be standing in line... haven't heard much from him today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+mcallahan Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Az must still be standing in line... haven't heard much from him today I stood in line 4.25 hours, but I got mine! Worth the wait! The reason it took so long was the phone had to be activated in the store and I had to sign this, sign that, etc. They only had about 8 clerks activating phones so about 1 person was going in every 10 mins. I'm assuming they did it that way to keep from flooding their servers. I saw Andrew too..called out to him, but he walked right by so I guess it was early for him...

JamesL Posted June 19, 2009 Author Share Posted June 19, 2009 Good thing you got yours activated, reports are coming out that it might take up to 2 days for some phones to get activated due to the overwhelming number of phones being sold. I am truely amazed... they are saying Apple might sell more 3GS's this weekend than they did 3G's during it's opening weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
