Apple iPhone Losing Svelte Status?

August 19th, 2008 by Eric

Apple iPhone Software update 2.0.2
The last post about the Apple iPhone software update came nearly two weeks ago before the second update arrived. This seems rather unusual for these updates to come so close to each other. Is Apple losing its svelte status with the iPhone? One of the first things that I noticed with this update over the last one was that it worked more smoothly. However, it is still rather annoying that I had to download over 250MB for the entire image, then spend even more time waiting for the update to install, reboot my iPhone, then get back to a normal state. In relative comparison, my Windows Vista updates are smaller in size and quick to install.

I have been reading as many discussion forums about an issue that I have been having since I got my iPhone which is trouble syncing email. Not Exchange mail, but POP3 and IMAP for mobileslate email. Reading the Apple Discussion Forum shows that I am not the only one having trouble, others are definitely experiencing the same issue. Resetting my device once a day because email is failing is just not acceptable. Several have suggested to shutdown the email program by pressing and holding down the “Home” button for 5-7 seconds and that will “force-quit” the email application. But where is the permanent fix to this problem? 2.0.3? I hope it comes soon, but concerned that Apple is starting to put out buggy software and losing the quality standard, just slightly.
