itunes 7.7.1 update is out…

late last night software update alerted me about the lastest version of itunes… the size of the file was 48mb for me, on mac… I think the pc version was about 29mb… I don’t see anything different with this update… perhaps is in preparation for the iphone 2.0.1 update? ideas anyone?

2 week wait for iphone 3g…

almost 3 week after launch, the iphone 3g is still hard to come by… someone I know just went to a nearby at&t store to purchase one and they told him it’s going to be 2 week before he gets his phone… a quick visit to at&t website and you’ll see this notice…

• As of July 30, direct fulfillment customers are receiving their iPhone 3G, on average, 13 or 14 days following purchase.
• Delivery times vary based on the specific model a customer chooses
  (8 GB, 16 GB white, 16 GB black).

now, aren’t we glad we got ours on the first day?
