Updated to note that iPod app can now rotate video portrait or landscape, and to link to MobileSafari’s new speed boost…

Great phone needs landscape mode. When I see the way the iPhone goes as a phone is for the average business man, not the avrage teen. I mostly use the phone for testing sense my friends don’t have Internet on there phone. If apple gave landscape mode as a minor upgrade via a not notice app inside the text app that whould be cool and mail whould be great. What I think apple did is see the blackberry and treo and bulit the phone from that point on. Also, I think that apple needs to get handwritting for the iPhone. Why only Chinnses, When I see most people use there PDA to handwrite a memo. Look, I know now most people text and don’t see the beauty of this; but a college kid who has a (non jailbroken) iPhone will whant to take notes to take notes the fastest way and if handwritting, then do it!

Really (really) great review.

I found the Ver 2.0 upgrade ‘buggy’ at best on my 2G iphone but bloomin awful on my new 3G (considering putting the 3G on eBay as I type).

Seems like WiFi controls have changed as radio doesn’t seem to come on as soon as phone wakes up as it did in earlier version. Sometimes you need to go to settings and turn off and on again to wake it up. Is this by design?

Have one of the original 8GB iPhones, and have been thru hell since agreeing to a 2.0 update. Since the update, can no longer sync Calendar with my corporate Calendar system, and I have a lot of company on that problem. Getting Contacts to sync was problematic. I’ve suffered like this each time Apple has pushed a SW update for iPhone. What a bunch of amateurs. Seems that Apple’s problems have escalated to the point where they are not only not providing any support whatsoever for resolution of their 2.0 issues, their online discussion area for iPhone … which is the only thing that they really have to offer in the way of support (what a load of ****) … is now offline too. I actually rue the day that I received my iPhone as a well-intended gift.

Plz I want to ask if the new version has the following: In the Notes 1. Does it synchronize or still not? 2. Can we now arranging the notes with certain order not the entry order? 3. Voice notes?

In the calendar 1. Floating events. - Events will automatically move to the next day same time unless it is checked "done"-? 2. Repeat the alarm till it I press done or it's just only the 2 alarm reminders? 3. Repeat certain days "select repeat events on Monday & Friday or 9 weeks? Dialing 1. The ability to backspace to precisely correct input errors. 2. The ability to delete certain numbers from the log. 3. Does it have an extended log to more than the old which lasts for less than 2 days

SMS 1. The ability to send multiple sms's not through contacts. If I have more than one number to enter. 2. Can we now forward messages 3. sms delivery message.

Finally are of course the cut, copy, and paste functions?

As an Appleite from way back in 1986, I so want this iPhone 2.0 to work smoothly. But I've spent the past five days in massive troubleshooting, adding back information that was inexplicably deleted in the update, resetting, rebooting, restoring, trying to figure out why apps were crashing and what mojo would get them working again, trying to get iPod videos created with EyeTV to work again. And the luring siren call of MobileMe has crashed me into the rocks twice already, letting me see the great advantage of the once-a-day manual cable sync for Calendars, Address Book, and Safari bookmarks.

I was so anxious for 2.0, I couldn't hold back. I don't regret jumping yet I would advise others to wait at least for 2.0.1. And then get back to me.
