  1. i don’t understand y most of the new apps in appstore are compitable with 3.1 firmware?? is it due to apple forcing them to work only on3.1 or its developer who opt. not to support older firmware???

  2. 3G !!!!
    OS 3.0 !!!!!!

  3. Man that looks cool.. Can’t wait for the 3.1 JB so i can grab it…

  4. I believe the Yelp app have this similar feature when you tap the monocle option and already available under 3.0 OS…you will need to shake the phone while the app is open for the monocle option to appear for the first time.

  5. @iphonejunky Thanks for the explanation. I totally forgot about that. I was pissed when I read 3GS only but now it makes more sense.

    Sad panda.
