+1. It is quite a pain to scroll down 1/2 the page to find the next entry.

And it's all the more annoying when you finally reach that next entry and it has one of those huge, stupid liveblog boxes.

yes, I had the same experience with Xcode beta 3, but alas after going back to OS 240, iTunes complains that it can't activate the phone since the OS is too old. I guess I need to wait for the SDK download to finish and hope this fixes it.

First time installing beta 4 os (via xcode w/ sdk beta 4), I thought my phone was just locking up (stuck on black screen). Two iphones would show up in Organizer (one green, one red). The green one had no info (identifier, etc all n/a), while the red one which had the phone's identifier was waiting for the iphone to respond. It looks like the start of the install process wipes the info, but then gets confused looking for the wrong phone.

The solution was to remove the old iphone instance from the Organizer (via right click), and then attempt to restore the instance with the n/a info instead. Of course you have to try to install the os unsuccessfully once before the n/a version shows up.

Before I realized this, I tried restoring the beta 3. This worked fine, but iTunes refused to activate it since it's no longer the latest version.

Anyway, beta 4 worked once I realized what was going on, and appears to have both the iTunes and AppStore installed now. Still syncing, so I don't know if DRM work or not.

Were you guys able to resolve your problems? I am having the same issue and installing the sdk and trying a restore doesn't fix it, I am stuck with an iBrick and now the Organizer says that my iPhone is not even connected so I can't even restore!

Aaron - Thank you! Mine was stuck at the black screen too. I was afraid to remove the other "iPod" from the list, but it seems to be working for me now. :)

Aaron wins the prize. Apple is pushing out OS updates quickly, but
some of these things that we're discovering should a) have a proper
place on Apple's developer site to discuss them b) be discussed in
the release notes because I can't imagine that Apple didn't encounter
these errors themselves.

iTunes still refuses to copy DRM music (music legitimately purchased through iTunes) with beta 4 it appears. :(

Its not just music taken from iTunes DRM. There are a number of MP3 files that won't work for me as well.

Fixed it: while it was stuck on "Waiting for Device" I removed it from the organizer and then un-docked it/re-docked it, restored to beta 4. There's a new app called "App Store" with a "top 50" tab :) better get back to coding... hope this helps anybody in the same boat...

Saad, thank you for following up on this - I was having the exact same problem and this seems to have fixed it for me.

In case it helps anyone else, here's my dumb mistakes and how I got it to work:

1. Tried to install beta4 OS with beta3 SDK. Failure.
2. Tried to revert to beta3 OS with beta3 SDK. Fails, says hardware not supported.
3. Bricked phone, tried to revert with iTunes to 1.1.4. Failure.
4. Download beta4 SDK and install. Go to Organizer, doesn't recognize phone anymore.
5. Delete phone from organizer, re-seat phone in cradle. Detects.
6. Try to install beta4 OS. Phone goes blank, hangs at "Waiting for device..."
7. Panic, try a bunch of things to no avail.
8. Head to tuaw.com and see Saad's comments.
9. First restore with iTunes (fails, but at least gets it showing a graphic of some kind instead of blank screen)
10. Following Saad, launch Xcode and in the organizer, when it gets stuck on the "Waiting for Device...", delete the iPhone entry and remove and re-seat the phone.
11. Firmware restore proceeds like a champ.

THANK YOU Sadd!!!!!!!! I thought I was loosing my mind, I even contacted the iPhone Developer Support and with the e-mail I had to reply to, I sent a link to this post to make sure anyone else with this problem found a solution.
