These shenanigans have gone on long enough, and I think it's time for Apple to admit that the 3G iPhone was (and still is) not ready for public consumption.
3G network connections are still reportedly abysmal, MobileMe is in such a state of disarray that Apple has already offered a second free extension to subscribers, and now Steve Jobs himself has apparently acknowledged that there's a known bug that causes some downloaded apps to simply stop working.
By all accounts, the 2.0.2 update was a crapshoot, with some users reporting minor improvements, but other 3G iPhone users reporting that they can now no longer make calls at all.
The bottom line is that the 3G iPhone is, at this point, simply too unstable to recommend to anyone.
If yours is working flawlessly, hey, that's great. You played Russian roulette and won.
But the mountain of bugs and glitches is simply becoming too huge to ignore.
I'm guessing this situation will be ironed out in a month or so (assuming a full recall isn't necessary) with a collection of patches.
But until then, I'd suggest staying away from the iPhone until Apple gets this train wreck back on the rails.
