I definately enjoy the apps and the app store with the 2.0 software. And I agree with the freezing/restarting problem, it’s a real pain. Theres still areas where they can improve but they have done alot, and they’re going to keep improving.

Screen Capture was available on the 1.0 OS.

I still have the old iPhone with the new software update. I was impressed with one major upgrade that affects how I use the iPhone & YouTube. First off I have a Toyota Prius second generation that I have modified. I view all my iPhone & iPod movies through my navigation screen while my car speakers provide the audio. Up until the release of the 2.0 software, you could only watch YouTube videos on the device screen, they could not be exported for viewing using the iPod/iPhone component video cord which is what I use to connect to my car’s screen. The new software unlocked this feature and now I can watch YouTube video’s in my car once they are downloaded from the network. I’m still using the old iPhone so I can only view the edge network quality video’s. I have yet to find out if the iPhone will download a higher quality video using the 3g Network when available. If so I would love to upgrade so my friends can choose to watch anything they want during our car trips!

I agree with these comments. Personally I think it is turning in to a sort of Windows Vista. Apps are always crashing and start times are outragously huge on the iPod touch 2.0. I think Apple should slow down on the new features and start developing a cleaner os for it like mac os x snow leopard.

I suppose a good and bad point combined would be the maps,. Where I live the 3G and even Edge connection is very poor,.. Granted it was a good idea to use google maps as they are a terrific tool but it would be that much better to have the maps integrated within the phone,.. But it is the first introduction of the SatNav chip and it can now be taken advantage of !!

Apps are probably the best thing on the new version of the iPhone OS, closely followed by push email and all of that.

But for me the worst thing on the new OS is CRASHING! At least once a day for me. I hate it, but I heard a new version is coming out – 2.0.1 soon.

Yes, the iPhone 3G needs flash really bad! That is one of the draw backs of the phone, and going to a web page with flash video and just seeing the blue box icon! I sure hope Apple implements this very soon! Other than that love my iPhone 3G!

Screw Flash. I’m already turning off push services, setting email checking to manual, disabling BT and Wifi just to get acceptable battery life. The last thing I need to waste the battery on is stupid Flash banner ads.

Access to Flash videos would be nice, but with the YouTube client, and now Truveo and vSnax, I don’t miss Flash at all.

’til they support flash and I can make qik.com video’s – I’ll pass on the iphone. It is pretty cool though and the pricing is good.

- possible cool app idea – using phones gps maybe automatically post location to fireeagle at set times of the day

No flash for you!

Seriously – why is everyone so het up over flash? I personally rather detest the bloody thing – IMO there are much nicer ways to animate your site than relying on a plugin.

So, Chris, enlighten me – why so flashy?
