Apple seeds iPhone 2.0 beta firmware
According to our sister blog, Engadget, the iPhone 2.0 firmware has been seeded to developers. Before this update, the firmware was listed as version 1.2, but now shows up as version 2.0. Engadget says that the update didn't provide many changes: Cisco VPN tweaked, root-level mail / ActiveSync settings were changed around, but not much else.

One thing that this post doesn't say is that the new firmware makes your machine unstable as hell. If you aren't a developer, stay far far away from this. Developers (and Windows users) are used to the pain and suffering of beta software - but you definitely don't want to deal with this stuff just to play around. Use the simulator until you're ready, because once you update to this release your baseband will be updated and there is no easy way to go back.

Agreed 100%. Even as a legitimate developer, do not load this until you *have* to test on a real device, or unless your development device is not your primary phone. I've been force-quitting apps & resetting my phone several times a day.
