iPhone 2.1 Update Coming Friday: Less Call Drops, Crashes, Faster Sync, Better Battery Life

By Sean Fallon on September 10, 2008 at 3:54 AM

We were hoping for it, and it looks as though will actually get the iPhone 2.1 update on Friday. Word is that the free update will “fix a lot of bugs.” Expect less call drops, crashes, better battery life, and a faster sync (thank God). Still no copy and paste though. Bumnmer. UPDATE: Current iPod touch owners will have to spend US$10 to get the 2.1 software via iTunes—unless you purchased 2.0. For those users it is a free update. It is also included free with the purchase of a new unit.

    @th3gh05t: MMS is a hack invented to do over the cellular network what should be done via email. I see the iPhone not having MMS as being very similar to when Apple stopped putting floppy drives in their machines. SOMEBODY has to take the bold first step that might be a temporary inconvenience, but as more and more people get smartphones, and as the line gets blurred between regular phones and smart phones it will be less and less of an inconvenience.
