iPhone 2.2 Tomorrow?
Posted 11/20/2008 at 10:24:25pm | by Roberto Baldwin

2.2

Appleinsider reports that a German security firm may have stumbled upon the release date for iPhone firmware 2.2. Lucky for us, that date could be tomorrow.

the Fraunhofer Institute for Secure information released information about security hole that would allow malicious code to be placed on a website and allow a phone number be dialed with the iPhone.

The institute noted that only three lines of code are necessary to exploit the security code. Apple was informed of the exploit a month ago, and Fraunhofer claims that security update will be available November 21.

Apple could just push a small security patch to the iPhone, but Appleinsider thinks Apple could go all out and release 2.2.

Let's keep our fingers crossed for Google Maps with street view and bus and walking directions, the ability to download podcasts directly to the iPhone, updated Safari and App Store face lifts, and emoji icons.

We're gonna use those emoji icons all weekend long. Oh, no word on copy and paste.
