I’ve been playing around with the iPhone SDK mainly for the purposes of integrating the iPhone with the Ublip GPS tracking system. If you’re interested, you can read some of the research I’ve done regarding iPhone GPS tracking. I’ll be continuing my research and sharing it in the Ublip blog. But the point of this post is to mention that just this morning my iPhone went into emergency mode where I couldn’t get it to sync with my Mac and it was completely off the network. It turns out that Apple just released a new version of the iPhone SDK and OS today. So I started downloading the 195 MB file about two hours ago. Apparently I have 5 hours to go. Needless to say, Apple’s servers are getting hammered right now. The image below about says it all. I feel like I’m on dial-up again!
