I got my iPhone a few days ago... I know I should have waited for the 3Gs but the current 3G was on special because of the 3Gs coming out in a week!

I must say, the media totally blew over the whole battery thing, its really not that bad, why does everyone say it runs out in like 3 minutes?

This version of the iPhone software (2.2.1) is the current version.

OK, it's June 17th . . . . where's the 3.0 update? I guess I am a little eager, but it IS 10:00am, or 7:00 in Cupertino, CA. Anticipation, . . . you're making me wait . . . Hmmmm . . . those would make great lyrics to a song . . . .

Tell me about it. It's been June 17th for over 15 hours here! Where's my 3.0!?

I'm hoping "start of business" in Cupertino, 8:00 PST, 11:00 EST. 30 minutes. Come on Apple, don't let me down.

I'm going for an hour later. Singapore says they get it on the 18th of June. Which would be 9:00 am in Cupertino.

It is kind of frustrating to be honest. The software is obviously complete. It is just a matter of "turning it on" through the servers, per se. To me, it should have been available at 12:01am PST. Plus, it spreads the initial hit on their servers. Now you have a bunch of people like me "standing by" to pummel the servers the moment this nearly 1.5GB file becomes available.

philbowell · 06-17-2009

I'm getting seriously fed up of this!!!!

It's 6pm here now. If they say the 17th people expect it to be at 9am when the working world starts! The software's ready so turn the damn thing on!

Uuuggghhh! Apple you are annoying me. I don't understand the game with the release. Bad on me for wasting my day, thinking this might be out each subsequent hour. Bad PR IMO
