OK, iPhone geeks — there’s a software update hot off the Apple presses that’s supposed to address some of the problems you’ve been complaining about: Apple - iPhone - Software Update.
Better connectivity, fewer dropped calls, better battery life, faster backups and faster app installation are the claims. I haven’t thoroughly tested all of that, but first impressions: immediately after installing I do notice that backing up is much faster, and I seem to have four bars in areas where there were previously two. Not sure yet whether it improves 3G connectivity.

Good news — in one of the places where I’ve had consistently poor 3G connectivity since I got the iPhone, I now have a flawless 3G hookup that can even download the videos in AP’s Mobile News app very quickly. Looks like a score (not a fail) this time.
