Hopefully their OS 6 revives them.

Their software is clunky, old, dated, and not all that friendly. Their phones are falling way behind as well. And their strategy to just keep the same phone model and add tiny little things to it over the course of every 2-3 years isn't going to help in the long run as their hardware is getting dated now as well.

I think the iPhone 4 update for the 3GS works just fine, I also note that the iPhone 3GS has a pretty poor battery life with any of the Bluetooth and the Wireless featrures enabled - otherwise the new update iOS4 works quite nicely and I really love the drop in images.

Multi-tasking is excellent and glad it has come ... Though a lot more features could be introduced

Still no news in the Netherlands, not even a pre-sale.

I wouldn't even worry about it Floris, you probably wouldn't get reception there any way

BTW: Anyone have a clue about the announcement for friday regarding iPhone 4? Is there going to be a recall or some other for of reimbursement for them releasing such garbage

I was planning on switching from verizon to AT&T tomorrow and buying the IPhone, however your post has just taught me that maybe I should wait until Saturday

We may just be lucky that we missed the presale. Pressure is building on Apple to do a recall. The situation much reminds me of the time shortly after the vb 4 release.

The iPhone 4's biggest problem is not its antenna

They had their little public meeting today and it was a joke. Jobs even had the gall to say that all smartphones have the antenna problem, even the Blackberry Bold 9700 (which I have). One of the guys said he couldn't get his Bold 9700 to drop the bars while they were there and Jobs told him "It doesn't happen in all areas." They have decided to give away free cases, until September 30th, to fix the problem. Glad I didn't get in on the iphone.
