The Lucky Few…

I am one of the lucky few who recieved an email this morning that my iPhone 4 will be arriving a day early.  That is to say, I will have my iPhone 4 the day BEFORE launch day!!  Excited…  That’s an understatement.  Tomorrow is going to be a great day!  Well, every day is a great day, but tomorrow will be fun and great, too!  WOO HOO!  Ok, enough bragging. 

I installed iPhone iOS4 yestarday.  It took awhile, I had several issues.  The upgrade hung just as it was about to finish and I then my phone went into restore mode, and I couldn’t get it to restore either.  I tried several times, but it kept getting hung up.  It was a 1002 error, if I remember correctly.  After reading Apple’s help documentation, I followed their reccomendations and it worked.  It turned out hooking my iPhone into the Dock for Dell Latitude instead of into the laptop itself was causing some issue.  I just un-docked my laptop so that the iPhone was the only USB device attached and voila!  It worked fine.  iOS4 is running pretty well on my 3GS.  I’m enjoying the multitaksing with Pandora.  I really haven’t hit upon anything else that impresses me about the multitasking.  Of course, apps launch alitle faster, but nothing all that great.  The folders are awesome!!  Although, I’m having issue catagorizing all of my apps.  I’ve found I have a lot more kids games on my phone than I previously thought.  But at least I’m down to 4 pages instead of 9!! 

Again, can’t wait to get my hands on the new iPhone 4.  I already know I’m going to need a tiny torex driver to take it apart, but that shouldn’t slow me down too much!  If I can make through the first week with it and NOT jump in a lake with it in my pocket, I’ll be happy!
