    Just rumors and not games but over at MacRumors I read two interesting threads concerning two apps:

    Sirius XM app supposedly releasing Thursday or Friday of this week at a $2.99 price point but you also need to shell out $12.99 per mo/for internet only streams.

    &

    The ever talked about Hulu app releasing by end of June if approved.

    Of course both could still just be a bunch of BS. We will see. Baseball Slugger should be released by end of week though which I am looking forward to.

    EDIT: Almost forgot the unlock for all iDevices on OS 3.0 (does not include iPhone 3G S) is also coming out tonight or tomorrow!

    You know what might a good idea is to hold off a bit before updating to see what the initial reports and bugs are because there will be bugs and technical issues. I know everyone wants to jump on board at the stroke of midnight, but you may want to see how it plays out initially.

    True.

    I just made a thread regarding 3.0 being released already, it seems it works for some but not for all.

    Thread is here.

    I just saw that. In this case, it may be better to wait a few hours after it's released to see what happens. Not all games and apps have been updated to 3.0, and you run the risk of them not working after the update. The beta had bugs in it, and you never know if they were all ironed out.

    Pablo, Pablo, Pablo...someone in my office just tried it too, and it's not downloading either. I'm sure it will eventually, but I think need to be aware of the games and apps they have. Make sure you sync before you d/l.

    Don't really care about that, back up takes 2 hours, and putting all my fav games back on takes 10 min. Tell that "someone in [your]... office" that "Pablo19 feels their pain" ;)

    Personally if the 3.0 update did not as so much awesome to app's I would not bother, 2.2's web browsing and everything else is all I need since I brought my touch as a gaming device.

    Yeah I don't see myself getting this as I have a touch and probably won't be taking advantage of DLC.

    What exactly is the purpose to immediately jumping on 3.0? Is there really anything new in it that would be taken advantage of right away. I understand that games may utilize the DLC, Bluetooth, and Push notification upgrades, but I can't imagine that stuff is going to be streaming in tonight or even within a few days.

    Is there anything else that I'm missing.
