Same here. I don't even see how to get back to the screen to change the menus at the bottom. I went to the screen after (when it had More and then you could either go to Update or Redeem) to edit the menus, but I didn't edit anything, so maybe there's a bug there that doesn't set the menu to More after that.

I've noticed it takes a VERY long time to backup my 16 GB 1st Gen iPhone now. It took about 90 minutes to get about 90% complete, but I fell asleep waiting for it to finish, so I'm not sure how long it took. And then it still needed to update my apps.

Does anyone know any way to speed up the backup process?

You think thats bad...?
It took me 16 hours to back up my iPhone 3G.
And thats after many many failed attempts.
Usually at about 8 hours in, it'd automatically disconnect my iPhone and pop up with an error saying it had been disconnected.

I think it's time to get my iPhone checked out before the warranty is up...haha.

As far as speeding it up, I couldn't tell you. I could be wrong, but I think if you do it more frequently, it doesn't take as long.

Wow...and I thought 60 minutes was bad to back up my 16gb 3G! I can't believe how long it's taking you. How much space is used on your phone? I wonder if this is widespread or isolated. I can't imagine taking that long!

I'm only using 1GB of space..
I have a 8GB iphone...
Apple rep said there is probably a corrupted file.

I did see a time-lapsed video of someones taking 8 hours. And everyone thought that that was as bad as it gets.
Maybe I should call guinness book of world records? haha.

upgraded my 1st gen 8gb ipod touch, and for some reason the apple logo disappears half way through boot. apart from that, seems just as stable as 2.2.1, but it keeps dropping the bt homehub - when i go into settings the wifi is there again but had that with 2x

When I sync, iTunes shows about 5 GB of orange "other" content. This is phantom content that does not really exist on my phone.

I freaked out yesterday when installing the OS because the Apple logo dissapeared and the screen was blank, but lit, for awhile.
I think this is normal. Just a new way to boot I guess.

Basically now that they've added the 'more' button in the iPhones app store, you can go to 'edit' and rearrange the buttons.
I check for app updates daily (I have tons of apps) so I wanted the updates visible. After going to 'more', then 'edit', I drag updates and replace the categories button with it. I then drag updates over next to the 'more' button. I click done...close the app store and re-open it, it resets itself and doesn't save.

Can other people confirm this too...?

Yep, did the same to me.
