I have a phone with each version side-by-side. One change is in mail settings "always cc myself" is now "always bcc myself."
Apple just released firmware 1.0.1. So far reported benefits are increased volume, and no safari crashes while listening to music. The official change log is merely "bug fixes."
Update: the volume increase is disputed.
Update: on security issues, apple posted this: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306173
I thought that "issue" did not affect anyone but a few random unlucky souls?

Thanks for the info on iFuntastic.... after I'm done with my second restore I'll take it for a test spin.
After my restore the first time:
My phone was like a new phone. The restore did not bring back any data except for what was already on my mac.
SMS gone
Email accounts gone
All custom settings gone
Anyone else have this happen?

There is now the OPTION in MAIL SETTINGS to BCC YOURSELF on all mail. It used to be CC.
Still no BCC Option for RECIPIENTS other than SELF, though.
Don't know why it isn't listed in the UPDATED MANUAL which is actually dated as AUGUST 1 so maybe it'll be in there tomorrow?
Anyway, just thought I'd point it out for people.

After accepting that this is ONLY a security update, I thought I'd check out the only security update I personally found unnerving:
http://www.figma.com/dialerbug/
NOPE, NOT FIXED YET. Whoops.
I'm glad however, they they nixed a number of the cross-site scripting attack issues however. The dialerbug is still a bit disturbing if not high-priority.
Other than that, for what its worth, I think Safari does feel much more stable, but I'm guessing Apple won't "own up" to stability issues. I'm going to keep all my tabs full and see if I can "crash" it again tonight. Having no "luck".
This is interesting though. Apple knows how many DISTINCT and INDIVIDUAL iPhone customers they have piling onto iTunes and getting updates. This first security update would be an excellent way to see how "ACTIVE" their customers are in getting iPhone updates. A great story to share with potential partners if the "update rate" is high. My guess, the percentage of quick updaters will be higher than any other phone on the market, everytime they do it.
Also, tremendous WARNING SHOT across the bow of modders. In order to update, you'll need to RESTORE. How totally and completely sucky. Now I'm *completely* not interested in any mods. AT ALL. (Though honestly, nothing was compelling much anyways).

jailbreak still works after the update.
There is a slight problem though.
Originally when pressing and holding Home and Sleep, you would have to release them before jailbreak would go to "sending more files", the program seems to automatically start sending the files once the Exclamation Point screen comes up on the phone. If you do not release the buttons fast enough the jailbreak will fail and tell you that
"Problem with Ditto: 6
Sorry, apparently things just didn't work out.
Look on the bright side, if jail was that good for Paris maybe you should give it a second chance."
So this time as soon as I saw the Exclamation Point screen I released the buttons right away and everything works now
Just a little FYI.

I tested the volume before and after, and I am one of the ones with no visible change in volume level.

First bad news...
Safari still crashes. It took more surfing to make it happen than usual but it still happened. I was listening to music in the background and the music didn't stop playing...so I guess that's good - although that rarely happened.
I hope in some way, my Safari crash was due to a unique condition that they didn't test yet because if it keeps crashing in the next few days, I may have to switch back to my BB Pearl until the next release.
I was so excited and now...not so much
http://www.appleinsider.com/article...iphone_software_update_to_arrive_shortly.html"Management expressed excitement at plans to increase iPhone value over time via new software features, citing 'the sky is the limit' for iPhone software," analyst Mike Abramsky told clients in a research note Tuesday. "An iPhone update patch is expected shortly."
Abramsky speculated that upcoming iPhone software updates would include new widgets, peer-to-peer applications (chat, picture messaging, social networking), location-based services, MMS support, home networking, and possibly some integration with Mac OS X Leopard.

so you were holding out for a security patch? They didn't even know about the security issue until what, a week ago? You can buy mine.

exactly - they should have done SOMETHING. Even if it was just one feature instead of the whole collection that has been rumored. Give hope to those holding out. This is why I went back to my backup-phone, and just bought a Nokia N80 tonight - Apple really is disappointing with this secrecy.

Try setting it as a bookmark in your computer browser, then syncing your bookmarks to the phone.

heh, took me a while to find that character (the tilde, if you care)... With the keyboard up, tap @123 to bring up the symbols and numbers, then press shift.

I would say make a bookmark on your desktop, sync it, and then you have it.
That's the best I can think of.

yup anyone have any suggestions?
Yup, so for the 9 days we'll be abroad we'll use about 3,758KB/day based on current usage. Bringing our cost to about $7.70/day. I can live with that.Sorry, but $0.005 x 1000 = about $5 per megabyte. Your first 20 MB may cost you $25, but the next will cost you $100.

Watched the install. One interesting step was identified as "verifying current software." It will be interesting to see what happens when someone tries to update a user modified iPhone.

Oops.. Not everything is fixed. And of course Safari still runs as root, meaning every crash is a potential arbitrary code execution with full system access possiblity...

Why do you say that? Does ARM not allow protected code pages?
I'm no ARM expert, but i'm not aware of very many modern processors that share the x86 problem of treating code and data as being freely interchangeable (absent specific instructions to do otherwise).
Also, what's your source for it still running as root?
You sign up on a month by month basisAlso, (I may be wrong about this) but to sign up to that plan is $25 per month, and is for a whole year, or a $175 ETF.
I redid my math as well, keeping it in KBs as thats what all the measurments are in. I also realized that I had initially left out the $25 fee so here's the math with that included. We average 3,785KB/day with average every day use here in the US, that includes browsing, email and yes, Google Maps. Now assuming i stopped using Google Maps my cost could be even lower.Total = $369, or if you use the ETF, $25 + $175 + $69 =$269
So its either $41 or $29 per day - about the cost of drinks.
Again, I sure hope you dont use google maps...

We now know, from the patches, that the claim that a safari crash can lead to arbitrary code execution is real. Right?
The hackers who created the exploit said any safari crash is a potential exploit. Safari still crashes. Do you disagree with this?
I am assuming Safari still runs as root until we know otherwise. Apple's descriptions of their fixes did not mention fixing the architectural issue.

All other plans state clearly when you need to sign a 1-year agreement, not this one:
International Data Global Plan for iPhone
For just an additional $24.99 per month, iPhone customers may add a Data Global Plan to their existing domestic data plan and receive 20MB of data usage in 29 countries, including Canada, China, Mexico and many additional countries in Europe/Asia. Overage rate is $.005/KB. Outside the 29 discounted countries, the data usage rate is $.0195/KB
But I was told by the CS agent that there is a 175$ termination fee and , yes, you need to sign for a full year. I guess 175$ is not that bad if you consider that a week
I redid my math as well, keeping it in KBs as thats what all the measurments are in. I also realized that I had initially left out the $25 fee so here's the math with that included. We average 3,785KB/day with average every day use here in the US, that includes browsing, email and yes, Google Maps. Now assuming i stopped using Google Maps my cost could be even lower.
3,758 KB/Day * 9 Days = 33,822KB - 20,000 Free 20MB = 13,822 KB * $.005/KB = $69.11 + $25 upfront fee = $94.11 / 9 Days = $10.46/Day
