I am going to try and upgrade my 1.1.4 iphone over the weekend. Wish me luck !! Lots of it.

Pls note that a lot of the Installer Apps that you are used to is still not available if you upgrade now...just that you can use all the new features of FW 2.0 eg. push mail etc and also AppStore.

Stay Tune......Watch this space over the next few days for updates.

Top 5 Reasons

Well, we are now 3 days away from the official launch of iPhone 3G and firmware 2.0 Are we ready for this? For those in Singapore, you will have to wait a little longer...perhaps in another 2 months.

To prep you for this moment, I have read several articles on the net recently that are of interests for pros and cons of owning an iphone. here you go, happy reading :-

iPhone 3G vs iPhone

So, iPhone 3G is officially announced but you can only get it together with a contract with one of the official carriers. Looks like I will stick to my first generation 16GB iphone. It has been good and still is and I actually don't have a need for 3G or the GPS.

For those of you who like me who do not need 3G or GPS, first generation iPhone works just fine. We just have to wait till June 27 or so, when iPhone 2.0 and App store is released by Apple and patiently wait for someone out there to break the code.

Like someone mentioned in recent news, Apple iPhone strategy is more on the software rather than the hardware. iPhone 2.0 and the new SDK is really the key to iPhone success.

Although I wont be queuing up for the iPhone 3G, I will still be recommending to all my friends and those who are reading my blog to get one if you have not, it is now so much more affordable than any smartphone in the market.
