Rumors of iPhone OS v2.2 to be released on November 21st

[AppleChic]

iPhoneHellas is claiming to have confirmed from a credible source that iPhone OS v2.2 will be released this November 21st, although they say they cannot identify who their reliable source is. Some expert sites say that iPhoneHellas has made accurate predictions from credible sources in the past, others are unsure because they have not had experience with iPhoneHellas.

Anyway, here’s how the rumor goes;

First off, the supposed reliable source has indicated that the iPhone firmware v2.2 will NOT be available to Greek keyboard or Greek menu.

Also rumored, according to iPhoneHellas,

“- New look for the Safari with the Google search bar now occupying its own space on the title bar
- Toggle On / Off to disable the auto-correction
- 461 Japanese emoji icons
- Support for new languages.
- Line-in audio is activated and can be used through the headphone jack
- Google Street View, Google Transit information - Routes public transport, Walking directions, Location sharing.
- App Store: 'Categories' now shows the icons of the applications instead of the list, In each page of the application has been added by a button 'Tell A Friend' & 'Report A Problem', Added the possibility of scoring the application when the user chooses to delete from the device, Added the possibility for direct downloading of podcasts from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store”

Well according to the rumor, the feature list remains the same as on the beta. Maybe a surprise copy/paste function will be added last minute? At any rate it seems that the futuristic versions of the iPhone that will turn on your coffee maker and lock the doors to your house that AT&T Chief Ralph De la Vega described in a recent interview are a long way off.

[BLACKSTEEL1]

no push...this sucks!!

[MrNoSox]

I think Apple is hoping we'll forget about MMS. WHERE THE HELL IS MY MMS?

[m600i]

I hope they fixed the mail fetching routine.

[Dizz]

What exactly do they mean by line in audio?

[CodyR1951]

That's be a GREAT birthday present for me.

[imagine engine]

Does the 2.2 update provide A2DP, landscape typing for email/SMS (without needing a third party workaround), allow apps to run in the background and support for tethering?

[sziklassy]

OMG OMG OMG!!!! Wait, they still added nothing that we have been asking for? I don;t believe it! They always listen to their customer's desires!

[kadinh]

meh....

not enough for me to un-jailbreak mine. i have it how i want it now. except the push and yahoo mail not working from time to time

and "line in" means you can plug something into your phone (like a guitar just for example) and use the iphone to record or use it as a speaker.....

[enjoylife]

all useless.

WHERE IS JAVA AND FLASH.. i could careless about the rest

[monstar]

All of this is useless to me
I want speed and stability

*opens the thread, does a quick search for 3g unlock, and proceeds on his merry way*

Im pretty sure Apple isnt going to release an unlock in any firmware version....ever.

[cricketlang]

i feel like everyone else saying where is copy and paste and where is the MMS. these are basic functions that need to be added to the iphone/ipod. What is apples deal. there is tons of what we are NOT asking for and absolutely NOTHING we are asking for. Please apple....give your customers what they are asking for...we arent asking for too much

[stlcaddie]

I want a G1, I've had a good fun run with my iPhone, I'm just ready to be uncuffed from the apple police and have FREEDOM and CHOICES.

[Cocchiararo]

i read somewhere that the g1 also has a locked bluetooth :P

[fastforward]

lets tell apple what we DONT want and maybe they will add wat we do!!! im confused!!!

[boe_dye]

so i can have a korg pandora like application on my iPhone...

So now not only can i carry my phone in my pocket, i can also carry my guitar and pignose amp and be like Lightning Boy from Crossroads only with effects, and a GPS and a cellphone so i can make phone calls!

Cool, but still not going to update until something worth while comes along.

[BoostedEvoIX]

what i dont understand is why something so simple apple wont do?!! Theres so many phones out there that either have a keyboard for txting or landscape mode. Also, theres cheaper phones out there that have MMS and video capability
