Ahh no wonder, Bob, once you download the Update , it should only take 10-15 minutes to update the Iphone
FYI for future times always choose the download and not install option, This will get the file only and then at a later date you can update the Iphone at your leisure. Keep im mind that updates are non disruptive and keeps all the info you already have. If you ever get prompted for a "restore" it erases the Iphone and you have to either start from scratch as new one or load a backup From: Bob Fronk [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 17, 2008 3:47 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: OT: iphone update - how long does it take?

I am getting ready to call them.... No... I don't know what it had on it. Have not been keeping up with the iphone hype.... Bob Fronk [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: Andrew Greene [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 17, 2008 2:56 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: OT: iphone update - how long does it take? It took about 30 minutes for me. I've never interrupted an Apple update to the iPhone, but once did while jailbreaking my original iPhone (fortunately it wasn't bricked). If it's still going in another 20-30 minutes, I'd definitely give Apple a call (supposedly their phone support is good). Incidentally, do you know what the original firmware that was installed? 2.0? 2.0.1? 2.0.2?

I connected it and opened iTunes and activated. Then it said an update was available and I hesitantly allowed the update. Now I am nervous that I should have just left it alone. 1 hour 20 mins now..... still on "restoring iPhone software" Bob Fronk [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: Christopher J.
