Unhappy I love my new iBrick

Stood in line for 1 1/2 hours, got the next to last phone they had available (16 Gig white - not my first choice) and now, after 4 hours of trying, I still can't activate it since apparently iTunes has crashed, and of course my old cell phone SIM is now deactivated.

Makes a nice paperweight though . . .

Yep. I am just trying to download the 2.0 update for my oldPhone. iTunes is buried. I have been able to download a half dozen apps, though. But no 2.0 update. It is nowhere to be found right now.

I can't wait to play super monkey ball!

Oh yeah, Exchange support will be nice, too.

There is a clever free one called "light" that jacks up your brightness and turns the screen pure white for use as a flashlight.

I saw this off of Drudge Report about the Apple issues:

Software problems bug Apple's launch of new iPhone

I'm glad I decided to wait; I knew there would be some sort of issue. I'm in no rush to get an iPhone but I'm glad to hear that you can download Active Synch so Microsoft Exchange email will work on it.

I hope it gets sorted out quickly for you...

Waiting on the Blackberry Bold on my end...

Can you open PDF files on the iPhone and scroll around freely? This is something the blackberry is not very convenient at.

Make sure you have the 7.7 itunes update installed.

Here is the direct link to the 2.0 firmware.

download file, connect iPhone, hold down the option key click, update, choose location of the file you just downloaded. good to go.

Yes you can. With the new version you can open all Microsoft office type applications and interact with them (apparently). Check out this demo I got from Apple. It's long (about 30 minutes) but pretty cool to see all its capabilities.

This is the right way to do it. I did mine last night like this. No problems with my update. The two people that I know who did it automatically had problems.

I also went to buy a 16 GB iPhone, but ATT is having an IRU problem. The store kept one on reserve which I can buy when ATT fixes their cr8p.

I noticed that 3G in my area has been disappearing at times today and reverting to Edge or GSM/GPRS - thanks to all those ibrick users taking up my bandwidth on AT&T no doubt...

FYI my local AT&T store said they had people lined up at 5am and they only got 50 phones and sold out in the first hour. I wonder if the Apple store got any more than the AT&T stores? They said you could order online and get the phone in 2-3 days.
