The iOS 4.2 GM build seems to missing something -- AirPlay support for iPhone 3G. As we all know, iPhone 3G is already missing several iOS 4 features, and wasn't scheduled to get AirPrint either. Apple has said in the past 2008 hardware just wasn't able to keep up. However, AirPlay was alive and well on iPhone 3G throughout iOS 4.2 betas and Apple's very own website claimed that AirPlay...

How does the 2008 iPhone 3G work with the soon-to-debut iOS 4.2? When iOS 4 first came out back in June it was laggy and non-responsive and generally not a good experience for many iPhone 3G users. Apple promised a fix with iOS 4.1 in September but not everyone was thrilled with the results. Now it's November and iOS 4.2 should become available this week. So, we took a look at iPhone 3G...

It does not include the SHAtter exploit developed by pod2g. Nothing new is revealed to Apple with this jailbreak. If you use the ultrasn0w unlock, they tell you to wait for pwnagetool as...
No iOS 4.2 AirPrint wireless printing for iPhone 3G owners, according to Apple: Printing is available only on iOS devices that support multitasking. Which iPhone 3G does not. So add AirPrint to the list, along with wallpapers, fast app switching, HDR photos, and the rest, and how much further behind is the 2008 flagship falling? [Apple.com]
While we won't know for absolutely certain until the final release version of iOS 4.1 for iPhone arrives sometime this week (maybe Wednesday), it's looking like HDR photography will be exclusive to iPhone 4 and iPod touch 4, and not available for iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS users. HDR photography requires separate 3 pictures be taken as simultaneously as possible -- regular, overexposed,...
Steve Jobs began his introduction of iOS 4.1 for iPhone and iPod touch not by listing the new features, but by listing the bugs it fixes -- proximity sensor, Bluetooth, and iPhone 3G. Each of those were annoying enough to be near deal-breakers for some, so their being fixed is certainly good news. Finally. iOS 4.1 is scheduled to arrive next week. Is that soon enough for you?
