Not too long after the 2.1 update, Apple has just released the iPhone firmware update 2.2 beta 1. Apple notified some iPhone developers that a new beta iPhone firmware 2.2 is available for testing. The new version is labeled iPhone OS 2.2 beta 1 and is accompanied by a new beta of the iPhone SDK (build 9M2611).
We still have no idea what the newest firmware would contain in comparison to the current version. Firmware 2.1 did address several bugs and issues that have plagued several iPhone 3G users since the device’s launch, so it is not clear what 2.2 would bring to the table. Mac Rumors also points towards a post on its own forums where one user claims to have received a response from Steve Jobs on the where abouts of push notifications. “We’re running a bit late. We want to get it 100% right the first time.” Steve. Notably missing from this news is any rumor of Copy and Paste functionality for the iPhone. Apple released the 2.1 Firmware to the public on September 12th. iPhone 2.1 addressed a number of bugs and stability issues with the iPhone and App Store.
