    iPhone time zone support

    Has anyone noticed that appointments alerts do not always activate when you are on time zone support (i.e. travelling). I tested this on my 3GS and ipod 3G, so i know its not one faulty device - must be a fault in IOS 4

    How's your speed of iOS4 on 3G models?

    I have a 3GS and my wife a 3G. IOS is great for the 3GS, but i would caution 3G owners unless they want the camera zoom and the folders. IOS 4 is very slow on a 3G

    no data connection when upgrading to IOS4

    Apps not working in IOS 4

    So far skype and News24 are not working properly on IOS 4. Anyone having the same issues? Also has anyone noticed a drop in performance on 3G's? My 3GS works great, but 3G seems sluggish. Lastly, old wallpapers have gone - anyone know where to redownload these?

    iPhone 3GS

    I would have thought that that the ethical annd correct thing to do in the case, considering who Voadcom is, is to have an update or status window on their website - not too much to ask. Their attitude stinks though. Their way or F.O.

    iPhone 3GS

    @CharlC - thing is, in most other places in the world, the operators tell you there is a shortage before you sign up. They also have far better public information. On Vodacoms site there is no mention of stock shortages - its as it has been from when the phone first launched.

    iPhone 3GS

    @FaNIX - yes - bacause you do the upgrade deal and are told the phone will be available within 4-5 days - i would never have anticipated waiting this long - and they continue to advertise it

    iPhone 3GS

    have a look at "iphone" on hellopeter - there are so many frustrated people and Vodacom has such a bad attitude. Interestingly enough, its the same copy and paste answer to all the complaints.
