The wait is over ladies and gentlemen, the iPhone / iPhone 3G OS has been updated to version 2.2 thanks to the latest software update available today via iTunes. As with prior updates, you will need to connect your iPhone to your computer via USB cable and have iTunes installed to join in the fun. At the top of the agenda for the 2.2 Software Update is none other than Google Street View which takes you on a virtual tour of your surroundings with street-level navigation. Also making an appearance in the 2.2 Update is the ability to get walking direction, find public transit schedules, check fairs and estimate your travel time.
Also Included in this update:
- Enhancements to Maps: Display address of dropped pins, Share location via email
- Decrease in call setup failures and dropped calls
- Preference to turn on/off auto-correction in Keyboard Settings
- Enhancements to Mail: Resolved isolated issues with scheduled fetching of email, Improved formatting of wide HTML email
- Improved sound quality of Visual Voice Mail Messages
While we load the 2.2 Software Update on our iPhone we’d like to hear from the readers. Has Apple finally resolved that 3G signal, does fetching of email live up to the hype? Let us know in the comments and we’ll be sure to report back to you with our findings a little later today.
