iPhone 1.1.4 Update is 165-MBytes of “Bug Fixes”
Apple on Tuesday released a 1.1.4 firmware update for the iPhone and iPod touch.
Available through iTunes, the update is a beefy 165-MByte download, but incredibly, adds no significant new features.
According to iLounge, which examined the update closely and quizzed Apple about it, it’s nothing but bug fixes.
The update is probably laying the groundwork for the iPhone SDK, which Apple promised to release this month.
The 1.1.4 update presents no problem to jailbroken iPhones, TUAW reports — which will be a moot point if sanctioned applications will be released shortly. Who wants to hack their iPhone to load applications if there’s a nice SDK a way to load them through iTunes?
