    Big demand for it as it's said 4 hours to down load and crashed 3 times and now just says 13 minutes so fingers crossed.

    tbh everything that is new in 4.0 is already out on jailbroken phones anyway and has been for a while.

    Jailbreak it, set your iphone free ;)

    Must say I thought the multi tasking would be two apps open at same time, so not good there.

    Zoom is nice on camera, but best of all is the geo locations on the camera, I know its always asked for location, but could never access it.

    Shame there is no refresh in safari apart from the one at the top, not good when your halfway down large page like this forum.

    Does seem to have got the speed back it used to have originally, aqua forest is miles better.

    Think I may have to copy greywing and open it.

    Did you know you don't need to scroll up to the top manually? If not then when you're half way down a page, tap the grey bar where the time is shown and it will go straight back to the top :)

    It must be great having a phone that you need to constantly update/jailbreak to get it working how you want it.....

    lol thanks wb, yeah I knew that, but then I have to scroll down again.

    Was more for real time logs, so thirty seconds of scrolling down everytime you refresh, any other tips though would be cool.

    Glad the real msn finally brought out an app, saves sharing your live password with any old chinese app makers, well a security risk.

    I don't update mine, my updates from apple are turned off. Mine is jailbroke and stays jailbroke. You can get unofficial updates which are much better than apple's.

    If a new update comes out, you go onto an app forum and grab each individual part of that update.

    Multitasking on the jailbroken iphones has been around for about a year.

    For me I don't think it is the iphone that is particulary special or better than other phones, it's just the range of apps available that make it a better unit.

    The new iPhone 4 is a huge improvement on 3! The screen resolution makes reading text on a web page a real pleasure - it's indistinguishable from looking at a book. You really can't see any pixellation.

    I thought that the higher speed would be the draw, but having used it for a couple of hours so far I can say that the astonishingly high quality screen is a much bigger deal than the slightly more responsive interface...

    I had to restart Windows 7 in order to download iTunes 9.2, in order to download iOS 4, to update my now obsolete Apple iPhone 3GS.... even now it still does capitals on "White Tongue" :D

    BTW if you order a iPhone 4 make sure you pre-order one of the bumper cases to - as this happens if you drop it: http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/24/iphone-4-drop-test-yields-results-video/
