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 crap) … 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.

Great review, thank you!

@Paul: still no copy paste (

What I discovered: The keyboard software was improved. Keyboard now “learns” words with less than five chars length (still no words with only two chars ). And at least the German dictionary has been improved quite a bit.

Question: Does Safari now remember passwords? I miss this one VERY much.

Am I the only one who notices that you can’t actually invite anyone to appointments over exchange? I think I remember this being in Windows Mobile. Maybe I’m just missing this.

the biggest weakness in the 1.x interface has been the lack of a copy/paste function. I did not see any reference to this issue. Did I miss something has this been resolved?

Some minor changes in SMS you missed:

It now remembers what you've typed in everyone's text field and haven't sent, even if you type in more than one.
In 1.x you could send a text by pressing anywhere in the grey area above the "send" button instead of trying to hit that little button and getting an o or p added to the end of random messages. In 2.0 you have to hit the send button. What was the point of taking that out? I loved that, the only time I ever even aimed for the send button was when it was a one-liner and no grey area. Can I at least get a send button that floats in the center?

nsaaa seriously? wow I don’t know where i’ve been. i’ve used the timer about 10 times in 1.1.4 and had never seen the “sleep ipod” option. i always hesitated playing an album on my iPhone before going to sleep because i knew i’d only hear the first 3-4 songs and i’d be sleeping while the rest of the album played out. well it’s good to know anyway, at least now i can play my music before hitting the sack. thanks nsaaa

chris this feature haas always been available in the clock app, trust me I use it all the time.. and have yet to update to 2.0

By: Chris

Chris — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 04:32:19 +0000

clock app has changed. Discovered this by reading apples iPhone guide. Timer now has a new option when the time runs out. Instead of an alarm, it can now “sleep” the ipod.

@Larry and @Brian: Thanks! Added!

@Scott: To the best of my knowledge, while you can forward attachments you receive in email, you can't add attachments to new messages from within the Mail app. However, apps like YouTube, Safari, Photos, Notes, etc. have buttons inside that will let you email their data type (a note, a photo, a link), popping up a new email with the attachment in place.

Scott — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 01:08:09 +0000

Great article. One downside that I found is for the ability to attach a file to a new composed email. No options for “add attachment” that I can see.

I don’t know if this was present prior to 2.0 but text messages with web links now include an additional arrow to the right that allows you to follow the link or add it to bookmarks

Something else you missed – Settings/Mail, Contacts, Calendar – scroll way down to “Import SIM Contacts”. Also “New Invitation Alerts.”

Great review!

This is a wonderful article, very informative and well written. This is all I need to find out if I want to upgrade or not.

Thanks and great work.

great review. One note: mail has a much better multi-delete feature (and you can multi-move as well). A great change for dealing with all that push-spam!

Thanks for the heads up on the screen capture. I had no idea. Really quite useful.
