Its sunny somewhere.
because they threw it out at the end of the 90s
That late?
Right, so I've downloaded and installed (I think) ISO4 for my 3g...but I can't tell any difference.
What's the point of it then?
A lot of the new features aren't available on the the 3G (like multitasking), but one new one that is is folders; drag one app over another one and they get put into a folder - useful for keeping things tidy if you've got pages and pages of apps.

Yo! Pesh! Hullo!

Really? Where are these folders? Are they on the home screen type thingy or whatever it is.
And multitasking? You mean I could for example on one screen have both a text message open whilst playing a game?
Just click and hold an app icon until they all start to wiggle, then drag one over another and you'll see what I mean
There's an explanation of it here.
Is there no zoom on the 3g under iOS 4? There is on my iPhone 4.
There is an app that gives you digital zoom, it's called Camera Plus. It also gives you a "flash" (by tweaking the picture).

The iPhone doesn't have an adjustable lens, so it's digital zoom or nothing.
Of course that's always an option.

Looks like the antenna issues are starting to have an impact in the real world now too, with the Telegraph reporting: "There are bad reviews and then there are bad reviews. Apple, the technology company, has seen over £6.5bn wiped off its value after an influential US magazine criticised the latest version of its iPhone."
Apple really needs to do something over this issue as even Mac sites think it's a disaster:

Update: "It appears as though Apple will be holding a press conference this Friday, June 16th, at 10AM Pacific Time to finally — officially – address the iPhone 4 antenna circus issue."

Oh, and it looks like the OS 4.1 update doesn't fix anything - http://www.mobilecrunch.com/2010/07/14/nope-ios-4-1-doesnt-fix-the-death-grip-antenna-issue/

Screen protector films for the old models should fit this one shouldn't they? Worth getting for any gadget beyond the cheapest.

The most astounding issue is not that there's a problem, clearly there is a very real problem for some users even if it is a small number. Its that such a PR and marketing savvy company like Apple has completely and utterly fucked this up from day one in its approach.
According to the BBC the Apple briefing is today (15th)

Folders are good on the 4 software but I really wish that it was easier to move the app buttons about on the phone or in iTunes

My iPhone 4 arrived this morning. (Apple's attempt at allowing me to track it was laughable, but I have it now.)
Restoring and syncing my old settings now. New sim activated within minutes, super speedy. I guess it's because not every O2 user was trying to do the same at the same time.
Phone is heavier than the 3G. The bumper is less than inspiring, but will be firmly attached to the phone until I get one of the new incase cases when they come out later this month. Haven't used it for a call or text yet. wi-fi connection is strong. First thing I did was realised I grabbed it with my left hand covering the black strip Nothing drastic happened.
It's very pretty. Glass doesn't attract smudges anywhere near as much as the old one - they still happen, just not as annoyingly so.
Can't wait to get a proper case. My 3G was never out of one, so I feel antsy.

Did they send it via TNT like they did mine? I just logged onto TNT's website and entered the delivery reference number Apple gave me and full tracking info was available.

Despite having been able to reproduce the signal drop a couple of times, I was demoing my phone yesterday for a colleague who asked to see it can could not get it to drop signal at all.
Before anyone has a conniption, btw, I made sure he was aware of there being other choices.

No, it's Friday and that article also says the 16th. It's going to be fun seeing how Apple get out of this one.
Free bumpers? Gift vouchers? More denial? I can't see a product recall happening, but with the antenna issue making the mainstream news internationally, it's got to start hurting sales soon - or at least putting a seed of doubt in people's minds.
It's all very un-Apple-like.

They've changed it. When I posted it said the 15th.
