Now that the 2.1 ’s, its 3G iPhone is finally perfect – right? Well, it all depends on your definition of “perfect”, but there are chances that you still have a niggle or two poking from behind that overcrowding lot of bugs and security holes that were crushed in Cupertino putty knife in the Last week updated. Here is a look at what we are hearing so far:

• The exclusion of those of you who do not know where you are, our survey on the receipt called for improvements in 2.1 suggests that the majority of owners iPhone 3G (by a slim margin) see no improvement or – gasp! — A signal degradation since 2.0.2.

• Given that up to 2.1 fixes bugs with certain third-party applications, it is not surprising that some of ‘em are seemingly at odds with the new firmware (a disappointment, yes, but not a surprise). It sucks that Apple whacked the ball into developers courts on it, and we hope in the interest of users and developers as long as it does not take many sleepless nights of re-coding and debugging to get the affected applications back on the right path.

• We are now hearing some reports of e-mail buffoonery from the inability to add new accounts to 2.1 equipped with telephones, the failures of accounts that had previously worked at a total rupture exchange. Are you people see anything? All types of businesses like this that they have lost access to their beloved ActiveSync configurations?

Hehehe

This small phenomenon has been underway since the lines were wrapped around buildings that consumers were waiting with impatience the iPhone 3G, but even now, iPhones from the wild are fetching prices on the market opportunity. In a strange twist of the economy, Apple iPhone actually maintained the majority of its value, even after his successor on the market. Why, you ask? In other words, first-gen iPhones purchased from eBay and other retailers owned arrives without an AT & T contract, and of course, it may be (relatively) easily unlocked to work with another carrier. PSA: If you are still sitting on your old iPhone without apparent reason, now would probably be an excellent opportunity to test the market.

DaveyJJ sends news of yet another rejection of an iPhone app by Apple, with perhaps a chilling twist for potential developers of productivity or utility apps. John Gruber of Daring Fireball writes: “Let’s be clear: forbidding ‘duplication of functionality’ is forbidding competition. The point of competition is to do the same thing, but better.” Paul Kafasis (co-founder of Rogue Amoeba Software) makes the point that this action by Apple will scare talented developers away from the iPhone platform. And Dave Weiner argues that the iPhone isn’t a “platform” at all: “The idea that it’s a platform should mean no individual or company has the power to turn you off.”

The_AV8R writes “Jonathan Zdziarski showed that every time you press the Home button on your iPhone, a screen capture is taken in order to produce a visual effect. This image is then cached and later deleted. Zdziarski says that there have been cases of law enforcement looking up sex offenders’ old data and checking recovered screenshots.” This revelation occurred in the midst of a webcast on iPhone forensics, demonstrating how to bypass the iPhone’s password security (not trivial but doable). Video from the talk is not online yet but is promised soon over at O’Reilly.

Coollittlethings Studio has added its own software to the mix of blogging applications for the iPhone in the shape of Blog Press (iTunes Store link).

Unlike some other general blogging tools for the iPhone which have missed out one or more key blog platforms, the developers claim it works happily with all the major players — that’s Blogger, Windows Live Spaces, WordPress, Movable Type, and TypePad.

It supports photo uploading from a Picasa Web Album or Blog Press Public Album (both of which would need to be set up first, naturally). It’s not clear whether you can also grab photos from the iPhone’s albums, as you would with most other applications.

Blog Press supports WYSIWYG editing of text and photos, and automatically saves drafts in case of an incoming phone call. It can also manage multiple blog accounts.

It launched today in the App Store, and is at version 1.0.0, but at least you can be fairly confident of updates coming as and when bugs are found. It costs £5.99 (probably around $9.99?) so it requires a little financial investment, and if you’re only interested in blogging for one platform, you might try the free WordPress or TypePad blogging applications instead.
