Usually (at least for me and a few other iPhone owners that I personally know) the iPhone freezes when you download an app and attempt to use the internet, or anything the needs the G3 network. So, the only advice I can add to your article is: 1) Let your app download and install completely before using the phone again. 2) It also really helps to turn the phone off, then back on after downloading an app; especially a big one. Ever since I started doing that, it's been smooth sailing. After the 2.0.1 OS update I mostly have problems with making phone calls. Sometimes, even with the strongest of signals, the phone will reject all calls, incoming and outgoing, just after you connect with another number. You can get on safari and send text messages and even e mails just fine though. I notice that usually happens after downloading large apps. Once again, turning the phone off, then back on usually fixes that. I think people need to start viewing the iPhone as a computer more than a phone. Most people I know never turn their phones off… ever! When you install a program on your computer, typically they suggest a complete restart. I don’t think it is any different with the iPhone. Then again I have never owned a Mac… =( Thanks for writing the article, it was very informative and I think your readers will get a lot out of it. -Matt Moitoza- Hi David,
