Cool

Thougt the change would be from hitting the Upgrade button rather than iTunes!
Either way - Roll on Friday when I pick up the 3GS 32gig
Whoo Hoo :-)

Edited to say - I'm now unable to find an upgrade button. Guess I'll try iTunes :-)

I would have thought, at the very least, it'd be midnight at PDT when it's released, though more likely to be 9am PDT

Been running it for a week now.

No problems at all. Update was fine.

Some nice new features but the main features will come from the new apps now the developers have access to the new tools etc.

This is what happens when you are the market leader - everyone wants to copy you and no matter what you do you will always be following the leader

lol nope sitting at home waiting for the world to change forever

lol @ the theme, like I have said before, the iPhone is very pretty, surely thats what themes are all about

Tis quite ironic, but then goes to show that non iPhone users are just jealous really. Can even get the iPhone theme fpr my other phone, the 5800

PS, hope you all get the update soon and it is what was expected and all that Seriously

I was hoping it would be here this morning, but 6pm is fine for me.

All the features will be good, but I'm looking forward to A2DP so I can stream music through my car stereo via my Parrot 9200 kit, not to mention the other bits & pieces.

Never sent an MMS in my life as my previous Orange contract didn't allow it, so not too bothered about that, still nice to have though to bring it in line on the featureset.

Will it be a downloadable EXE, or it it done via iTunes?
