Ha, totally didn’t read the post right above mine that said no more, but hopefully since I “technically” waited until the 20th, you’ll let me be numero uno for today’s licences.

Hi there,
Thank you Sujan - I just wanted to confirm that this all worked for me - all activated fine. Thank you for giving my UDID access to this software.
I will report back any issues I find!

One point to note is that although all apps are fine, my iPod (16Gb, 3G) app won’t load.
In order to load it successfully, I need to remove all music before syncing. Podcasts do sync however, it’s just the music playlists that have problems.
Very strange!

Hey! I was lucky enough to grab one of the copies. I was wondering, are we going to be getting the updates along the line as well? Either way, thanks for letting us test 3.0!
March 20th, 2009 at 5:16 pm
Is the plan still to release more licenses? Anyone heard anything?
March 20th, 2009 at 5:47 pm
I hope you guys receive some good business and PR through your generosity!

iPod wasnt working. Restored it and it started working again. So far no problems with any third part apps. Copy/Paste works excellent.
So far I like it. Can’t wait to get the real thing
March 21st, 2009 at 12:52 pm
Got it installed on my iPhone 3G and it’s pretty awesome!
Sure a few of my apps reverted to older versions and some don’t work at all, but fortunately all the important things do.
It really feels like I have a new phone. It’ll be even better once MMS and push notifications actually work! My last wish is that they add video.

I’ve been testing OS 3.0 Beta 3 and it’s slightly better. The only problem I found is with the keypad… from time to time the add contact, call and delete buttons key keep disappearing.
