iPhone Firmware 2.2 Beta 1 seeded to developers

It seems Apple has fixed most of the large problems with the iPhone’s firmware with the iPhone 2.1 release, but they are by no means stopping there. Apple has seeded firmware 2.2 beta 1 to developers, but it’s unclear as to what is different.

Along with the beta firmware comes the newest build of the iPhone SDK (build 9M2611). The firmware is labeled with “compatibility testing,” but that’s the only clue. Whether push notifications have made their way into this build is also unclear. But, according to the latest supposed e-mail from Steve, it’s on their minds.

We’re running a bit late. We want to get it 100% right the first time.
