    More of the typical BULL from Apple about their phones just not being able to handle bla bla bla....but then they turn around and release a NEW model 6 months later than CAN support whatever the last could not??? BULL. Bottom line. Why can my 2G do things it just should not be able to handle doing?? Recording video with sound, mult-tasking??? F.U. Mr. Jobs. Better yet, why can the hacker community bring things to your devices that your OWN programmers cannot??? Surely they make a hell of a lot more $$ AND understand your devices better than these hackers do.

    If you cannot afford innovation! stop buying phones that you will keep for more than 2 years...
    I bet if Apple allows the new OS to run on older models people will be bitching and crying about why have they released such update! either way people will **** and **** and ****!!!!

    While I believe that is photoshopped (looks like it, tho I could just spoof version 4 firmware on an iphone 2g easily, it looks off for some reason) I also believe that this is completely possible. of course, you'd need to make it look exactly like a 3g, or the app store would detect it (2G running 4.0? OUTRAGEOUS! *disable*), this seems possible as the 3G has the same hardware as the 2g in all respects but gps and... well the 3g.

    I can afford innovation. But still I need to consider these things since I am not millionaire.
    In addition, the money we spend need to worth why waste it.

    "this seems possible as the 3G has the same hardware as the 2g in all respects but gps and... well the 3g"

    I think not, the whole logic board is different, infact i dont think ANY of the hardware in the 2G is the same as the 3G

    My post was not about being able to ''afford innovation''. I don't know where that was coming from. Anyway, I own both a 2G and 3G.

    Your insight into this topic is overwhelming!!
    Now feel free to cut out a star and use a gold crayon to color it in, pin it to your top and wear it to school, ask an adult if the scissors are too sharp for you

    hmm im wondering why ur not getting mad at technology itself? it's not steve jobs fault that technology advances at such an exponential rate that devices made 4 years ago aren't cutting it performance wise for software created in the present time.

    Stop blaming them for trying to do their job: to make money. They're other job is to please the customers and they're doing that pretty well. They have 4 iPhones now its not a surprise that by this time they've dropped support for the 2G.
