So bizarre seeing the 4G icon up there.

Too bad I'm pulling about .25 down/.99 up. Yay "4G".

yup mentioned that the last page.

because the iPhone 4S supports HSDPA+ it is technically a 4G phone.

just not 4G/LTE

5 hrs? I just started it on my phone and it says 2 minutes. And I'm downloading the Xcode 4.3.1 update at the same time. I think it's time you get off dialup.

i should clarify, i was downloading it thru iTunes, which was a 700+ MB file.

if i downloaded it thru my phone its only a 177MB file.

anyways it did not take 5 hours as its already done downloading.

wow, that is bad. Mine wasn't that bad. Mine would hang for a few seconds when I clicked on a folder, hang when I click the home button, lag when I start up the camera app, stuff like that.

Yep and the camera opens pretty quick. You can also pull down from the top of the screen to bring the lock screen back.

Might be a placebo effect but my battery seems much better so far. Ive had it off the charger for 2 hours and have used it for about 20 minutes and still have 100% battery.

Normally I'd be at 95% or so by now.

I was wondering why it wouldn't fucking open the camera when I kept tapping the camera button.

And my download + installation of the new update took about 15 min total

Anyone else notice the 4G icon doesn't look straight? The 4 looks taller than the G. And it looks farther to the right the AT&T logo than the 3G one did.

First world problems..
