iPhone 2.0 with Vodafone UK

After a few months using ZiPhone (brilliant app!) on my 2.5G iPhone, I've upgraded it to v2.0 using the iPhone Dev Team pwn tool. So, how does it work?

Well, the first thing to do is download the 2.0 software from Apple's servers - download only though. 

With all the right files from iPhone Dev Team, I ran the program and followed the prompts, backing up my shiny new 2.0 software before hacking it with the pwn tool. 

The whole process took about 10 minutes and I find myself with the new software installed and working perfectly; although, having said that, it does seem a little slower to respond than 1.1.4 did - longer to open certain apps, longer to open my contacts list - things like that. Not major niggles but I wonder if that's just 2.0 or if that's pwnage that's done it. Either way, there's no going back now.

I still intend to replace the 2.5G with a 3G when the Vodafone contract is up in January '09, and sell the 2.5G on the Bay of E. Some minor scratches have appeared on the shiny silver surround which I expect have come from dropping it into the dock cradle - they were certainly never there when I just used the cable connection. No matter - the way I see it you either spend £25 on a case or you get £25 less for it when you sell it because it's got a few marks - and let's face it, those marks are pretty unavoidable if you actually use the phone and don't cradle it all day in cotton wool.

Anyway, glad to report that generally speaking, all is well with the Phone of I.
