It is a typical day. I got up, grabbed my iPhone, ran down to the computer in my office and… nothing. Yup, no OS 3.0 yet. And if Engadget got the math right, there won’t be until early afternoon.
Here’s how they figure it…
Carrier 3 in Hong Kong just sent an SMS to their iPhone-owning customers that OS 3.0 will be out on June 18th, 01:00 local time. That would work out to 1pm today, June 17th in New York, 6pm in London, and 1900 in central Europe.
In otherwords… I’m getting back in bed…

Having a father who was heavily involved in early laser and fiber-optical research, Dan grew up surrounded by technology and gadgets. Dan’s father brought home one of the very first video games when he was young and Dan remembers seeing a “pre-release” touchtone phone. (When he asked his father what the “#” and “*” buttons were his dad said, “Some day, far in the future, we’ll have some use for them.”)
Technology seemed to be in Dan’s blood but at some point he took a different path and ended up in the clergy. His passion for technology and gadgets never left him. +Dan Cohen
