Today I witnessed the impossible. My iPhone synced (sunc?) with my computer in less that four minutes. The new firmware certainly has some improvements that are evident from the get go.

Today, Apple released the promised iPhone firmware 2.1 update right on time. They also provided a little more detail as to just what it does.

Apple has just unleashed the latest iPhone and iPod Touch firmware update to the interwebs. The update is said to address numerous “Bug fixes.” It’s 249MB, and that’s about as much detail as can be found right now. There are no specifics as to what bugs are being fixed, but with all the crashes iPhone users have been having with the 2.0 firmware and apps, this will be a welcomed update.

If you want to get some update action, sync your iPhone (or iPod Touch) to iTunes, hit the “Check for Update” button, then click “Download and Install.” Then, you have to agree to the terms and sit back and watch the bugs drop dead inside of your iPhone. Well, bugs don’t really die, they get fixed (hopefully). Anyway, I’m hoping this will bring an end to the unexplainable and all too frequent crashes of the 2.0 firmware.

Find out more about what it does after the break.
