It feels to me as if app updates for the new iPhone OS 3.0 are coming along at quite a slow pace so far. Others ‘ mileage may well vary, but I have 10 screens worth of apps (over 160 apps total), including some fairly well-known and popular apps, and so far I ‘ve only seen around eight apps with 3.0 related updates.
I thought that given that the new OS was previewed 3 months ago, and all the hoopla surrounding it, and the wealth of new features in the 3.0 SDK, that we ‘d be seeing a flood of updates leading up to and following the new firmware release. Figured lots of devs would be adding notifications, in-app email, built-in maps, in-app purchase, and assorted other 3.0 goodness.
I still expect we ‘ll see tons of these updates “ I ‘m just surprised they ‘re not getting pumped out more quickly “ or maybe they are and the hold-up is at the Apple approvals end.
What do you all think? How many 3.0 related updates have you seen so far?
