Apple Releases iPhone Fix

Apple has released a software update to fix the reception problems with the 3G iPhone claimed by many users.

Apple has released a software update for its 3G iPhone which should eliminate the problems with reception and dropped calls reported by a number of users.

Although Apple has made no official comment on the problem, as is its way, some have speculated that the problem might lie in the Infeon chipset the handset uses.

From hints that have been dropped, it’s believed that the problem affects around 60,000 users. The iPhone firmware 2.0.2 is available for download through iTunes.

Chris Neher, of MacDailyNews.com, told the BBC:

"This is a big to-do at the moment but in a few weeks people will have forgotten what the issue was all about. It’s because users expect more from Apple. There are many more users saying their iPhones work than not."
