Thumbs up for iPhone 2.1 fixes

STILL have to attach an adapter so that I can get stereo bluetooth rceived on my bluetooth stereo headphones…

The omission of this feature (A2DP) as standard functinality on an iPhone is either:

a) mind-dumbinlgy idiotic or
b) blatantly opportunistic..

I am holding my breath to see which one it turns out to be.

after i downloaded the 2.1 software my 3rd party apps all started to not work. every time i start one it breaks down! what should i do?

This is the best phone on the market. No one has visual voicemail, such an intuitive messaging system. BTW who is sending all this multimedia over messages? Is it really that big of a deal? anyways, down with Microsoft! Viva Apple!

I absolutely love the iphone, we use it in our business http://www.firetext.tv we are a text to tv screen company and it’s way better then our past blackberrys. The thing with any technology it takes time to perfect, but I know Apply will pull through.

JD and Frank- I disagree with you. I have had Verizon and Tmobile in the past, and at&t in my area runs circles around them. I can go anywhere and I have all bars with a perfect signal. I’ve been an at&t customer since 1996 when it was Bellsouth Mobility here and the service has always been amazing. Having the iPhone now has increased my loyalty to the company even more. My friends who have Verizon are constanly having signal issues and end up using my phone to make the call. Maybe it’s the area you live in, cause here in Georgia, at&t is on top of their game.

JD, i’m with you. I like the I-phone and Apple in general. However I am not a fan boy as such AT&T will not get any more of my money.

As with others my iPhone 3G was a huge disappointment after just days of use. Low battery life, crashes and slow everything. It got to the point of not showing my iPhone off to convert people because of embarrassment. Finally with the v.2.1 update it has restored my faith and I now am proud to show my iPhone off and get people over the fence to Apple.

It still didn’t fix the main problem; and that’s that it runs off AT&T’s network.

Because the Genius of the ‘Genius’ feature is that Apple gets to repackage and resell our personal data to any manner of different industries just by tinting the data with one colour brush or another.

It makes me so exciting and excited. Thanks to Apple, soon the entire world will know of my cool and eclectic musical and stylistic tastes. They will understand I am the pinnacle of culture and bow before me and Paris as we sashay by.

My Genius membership will lead to me being hired as a consultant by hopelessly square old white men so that I can infuse their lame products with marketing savvy intended to educate the young and naive; those still foolish enough to believe you can be original trendsetters and click-clinging doppelgangers.

I am genius, globalized. Thanks for getting the word out Stevie.

This update has done wonders for my Edge iPhone. All the promises have been delivered. As an Apple supporter I had been disappointed by the lack of stability. I couldn’t install new apps without bricking the phone. Restores were a regular occurrence. After the update yesterday all seems to be well in my Apple world. No crashes, fast backups, apps installing at record pace, syncing as promised with ease. I believe that’s a tear in my eye. My faith has been restored.

Apple is what’s hot right now, Microsoft is yesterday’s news.
the Iphone is just nice and neat and those who say that it isn’t are just hatersthat are stock in the past and unable to learn how to use apple, or don’t have any $$ to afford it.

Newsflash folks : Apple and Microsoft’s programmers are human beings. Humans make mistakes. For the most part, Apple learns and fixes theirs - Microsoft not so much. I upgraded 2 iPhones to v2.1 last night - the installs went flawlessly and both iPhones are now working as advertised. Only one annoyance - I don’t have visual voice mail and have a red dot on the phone icon that won’t go away - but I attribute this to the old SIM card I am using that originally came with my Moto Razr.

I just don’t understand why Apple needs my credit card information to allow me to use Genius?

David: Can you believe it Apple’s programmers are no better than Microsoft’s. The irony.

The difference is that Apple’s programmers actually fix their bugs. Can’t actually say the same for Microsoft’s.

I hadn’t noticed much of a difference before with ‘problems’ other than a lag when accessing my contacts. That seems to have gone away. What a great option to have software updates!

I, I’m not sure how to react to this news….you mean Steve Jobs actually admitted that they are issuing a software update because…because the Iphone had “bugs” and this update fixes “a lot of bugs”. I am speechless. Can you believe it Apple’s programmers are no better than Microsoft’s. The irony.
