Steve Jobs: Software Fix Coming For Slow iOS 4 Performance On iPhone 3G


Steve Jobs: Software Fix Coming For Slow iOS 4 Performance On iPhone 3G

Steve Jobs just loves emailing the community, or at least someone does in his name. Good news today fellow iPhone 3G owners, the slow-as-tar iOS 4 fun that we have been suffering through will soon be remedied. A frustrated customer sent Jobs the following note:

I’ve waited patiently through 4.0.1 and 4.0.2, looking for a fix that will make my phone work again. I’ve read the forums that advise me to jailbreak my phone or use some other method so I can downgrade back to a version of iPhone 3, however I’m not prepared to use a method that is not supported by Apple.

To which our fearless Dear Apple Leader said the following:

Software update coming soon.

Sent from my iPhone

There you have it folks, your Friday good news. Previous fixes have been lackluster, leaving millions of iPhone 3G owners holding more or less downgraded devices. Until the fix is released, you can check out our tips on how to speed up your iPhone 3G.
