Not good.

Most browsers see it as a ZIP file.
While it is downloading, click on the download in progress file on your desktop and remove the dot zip extension. Everything after dot ipsw has to go.

yup.

No clue about how it looks on a PC but on a Mac the final download icon looks like a cube with musical notes on it.

ALT +Restore in iTunes, then when the window opens up select the file.
It takes about 10 minutes to upgrade, plus the time to get all your music and software back.

You will LOVE 3.0.

copy, paste, capability to email multiple photos at once, bluetooth stereo streaming, landscape keyboard... global search (just swipe right on home screen) etc.

Haha! And that's the way it should be

I would say it's about half-way there.

I love the new Search option and the landscape texting! That's right, iPhone 3.0 now on my iPhone!

Thank you, Chip!

I can't wait for my 3GS, in the meantime I'll play with 3.0 once it's released.

It wasn't a small download. I had to use one of my client's fiber connection to get it and it still took awhile.

You need a larger upload pipe Chip.

Seriously, thanks for the file and it has been working great on my iPhone.

Even though you asked Jen, I'll respond as I have been using it now for a full day. It's fantastic. There are some nice little feature updates across the board. Very stable. I especially like the ability to forward text messages, Voice Memos is great, and cut, copy, paste is FANTASTIC! And the new universal search feature is awesome. I rarely use my phone in landscape mode, so while it's nice to have, I am not really impacted by it. Things I want to still see, MMS activated!

I wish there was something I could do as I am not that far off from being eligible, but the fact that I had to wait 3 weeks to get the 3G pushed it back for me. I really would like to get the new iPhone ASAP as things are about to get really hectic, but I also don't want to spend the additional bit of money for it. I am a corporate customer, with unlimited minutes, unlimited data, and unlimited texts, so I think that I have definitely paid my fair share to AT&T. I've been very happy with them thus far, just want the new phone.
I'll be eligible since I paid full price for the 3G. I wonder if it's worth it?

From everything I've read, short answer is yes. http://www.macworld.com/article/1411...?lsrc=rss_main

This will give you an idea. It does a good job of breaking out the differences in capabilities between the two phones.

I'm thinking the video function will get a lot of use

One other thing I can't wait for is the apps to start being allowed for the push services. AIM will be awesome then. And I can't wait for GMail to start it's push services for email.
