Firmware 2.1 Breaks Open Clip's Copy & Paste Functionality, Spirit
Posted 08/25/2008 at 4:40:38pm | by Florence Ion

iPhone fans everywhere are still clamoring over their copy and paste void. Who can blame them? Surely, one would assume that a smartphone would come equipped with something as useful as copy and paste.

iPhone Update 2.0.2 First Impressions
Posted 08/19/2008 at 6:33:47pm | by Roberto Baldwin

update 2.0.2

The Mac|Life staff has had 24-hours to try out the latest iPhone software update and this is what we have to say about it.

Susie:

It's the greatest iPhone firmware update since 2.0.1! (Heh.)

248.7MB, that's a biggish-seeming update for the absolute lack of details Apple gave about it.

I haven't noticed any real-world difference in my limited time with it. I think I read syncing is supposed to go faster. But it's not like I'm sitting here with a stopwatch clocking the iPhone's sync time, you know?

 

Find out what the rest of the staff thinks after the jump.

Developers Get iPhone 2.1, Including Push Notification Service
Posted 07/31/2008 at 3:10:01pm | by Susie Ochs

Apple's Push Notification Service is getting closer to a reality; the first implementation of it was included in a beta release of iPhone Software 2.1, which was seeded to iPhone developers yesterday. Once the service is live, app developers will be able to send various notifications to their users even if the app in question isn't running on that user's phone.
