This may not help much, but we have several users here in the U.K.
(Edinburgh, Scotland) using UK version 3 firmware who do not have this
bug.

Many Thanks

I'm glad to see others with this problem (meaning that in nicest way
possible of course). I had opened case 337745 with Apple. From what I
found, the phone sends out probe requests for the known network and
receives responses, but the phone never sends 802.11 auth frames (let
alone association frames) for said network. Only if the user taps the
network does the phone connect.

 

I'll see about the suggested 3.1 beta - sounds intriguing.

It's a bug in iPhone OS 3.0. You should probably talk with Apple about  
access to the 3.1 beta for testing...
