new software updates crash my iPhone, other iPhone rumors

This morning I awoke to a new iPhone update.  I had to do it manually (check for updates button in iTunes).  See details on the Apple site:

 

iPhone Software 1.0.1 released

Apple has released iPhone Software 1.0.1, featuring security fixes and perhaps some bug fixes too. You can download it by attaching your iPhone to iTunes, and clicking on the Check for Update button.  (thanks Joe!)

Being an early adopter and addicted to getting my iPhone to do what I want, I also hacked into it with help from this site:

which I do not recommend prior to installing this update.  As I experienced several crashes and had to start from scratch…(remember the activation screen with the earth?)

So the update scrapped the mods (buh bye ringtones) and made Safari more secure…

So lesson learned.  I am now back in action.

On the bright side I came across this good news:

Happy iPhoning!
