Apple is really, really excited about iPhone OS 3.0’s ability to send and receive MMS messages. So excited, in fact, that they didn’t even notice the glaring red error icons lingering in their promotional screenshots.
See, when you’re sending a text or picture message on iPhone OS 3.0 and something goes awry, a little red icon pops up next to the failed message. Its primary purpose is letting you know something broke, but it doubles as the button to resend the message. In Apple’s US store, the error icons are nowhere to be seen. But on the UK page? There they are, clear as day.
Sure, Apple UK might have just decided that this newfound error alert system was a worthwhile feature to passively show off without any mention whatsoever. Or not.

ROFL
I have an iPhone 3g and am planning on updating to 3.0 when I go to sleep. This is really funny. I find it weird saying this, but “Wow Apple, Nice going.” Good thing I live in the US though.
When I search for the 3.0 update on iTunes Denmark it’s shown, that 2.2.1 is the current version. I already updated to the 8.2 iTunes software and did search for further updates. Come on APPPPPPPLE!!
Perhaps they are just preparing everyone in advance for the inevitable collapse of O2’s service later tonight!

Oops. Sorry for the double posting…
I have just downloaded the updates onto my 3g and must say the voice recorder is useless, it is so faint on playback that you cannot hear what you have recorded even with the sound turned full on.
