Loving street view on Google Maps. And clicking the home button to return to the first home screen is a bonus.

Have they fixed the browser crashing? Mine does it all the time but having Googled it I am not the only one suffering that fault.

Not quite sure what use Google street view is in the real world though, I would much rather have some useful updates like cut and paste, email attachments from within Mail etc etc...

It sounds like they've fixed safari crashing though...

Safari crashing can normally be held off for a few days by rebooting the phone. Hold down top button and home button for a few secs,

The update hasn't fixed the browser crash. Mines crashed 4 times today already.

Try the popular cities, Paris, Las Vegas, Hollywood, Barcelona etc etc.. Like I said earlier, a pretty pointless addition....

upgrade mine - its introduced a new bug too, in some instances, after removing the headphones no txt alerts or ringing will come out of the speaker - almost as if its on silent (which it isnt). Quite a few affected by this

I doubt it'll ever arrive. It's only needed by a few special people.

Typical the safari on mine has not crashed (after the update) untill I was looking at this thread, at the moment I'm thinking of buying another phone and just using this as an ipod

How often do you restart your phone and how many applications do you have?
