The Apple iPhone 3G has finally arrived. Horray for all the Apple fans out there. I have not purchased one yet and won’t until NH gets 3G service. I don’t see the point seeing as Ialready have an iPhone and the aps are killer!
While watching Leo Laporte’s 24 hours of iPhone, the husband and I downloaded the new 2.0 software on Thursday. The install and update took long but went well with no glitches. Once the software was sucessfully installed it was time to let the downloading begin! The first ap to be installed was “PhoneSaber” Gotta love Star Wars! Then came “Jott” which is a voice recording application to capture thos “don’t forget the milk” moments. I downloaded eReader to do some light reading while waiting in the grocery line. And “Twitterific” is a must if you follow anyone on the social networking scene using Twitter.
The software upgrade provided some changes to the phones interface as well. The calculator changed it’s look and turns into a scientific calculator if you turn it on it’s side. There is a separate icon for your contacts and the me.com auto sync is great. Changes on the fly to your calendar and address book and other me.com features turns your phone into a true mini computer. All in all it has been a great experience for this release of the iPhone.
