Anyone else excited for this to release next week?

i'm running the GM version and i must say it is simply amazing i cant wait for the full version to be released and be able to use the cloud completely and perfectly, but at the moment it is running quite neatly, i get all of my music pushed to all my devices and the documents is awesome for school in case you loose something or the print comes out wrong.

what are you thoughts fellow iphone users?

inb4 android is better

Completely compatible! Only complaint I have about the notifications is that the notifications dont show up on the lock screen if you are in a game and it comes in the top bar thing

Sorry mobile ns fail. But when you don't click on it it and lock your phone it doesn't show up. Once you have it for awhile you will see what I mean. But besides that the notification system is awesome. Oh and you still can't type in shit without it turning to shut. Facepalm.jpg

Mine is alla done. It's a little better looking, and it's faster, even on my 3GS. iCloud doesn't seem to work though. That sucks, since it was the biggest reason to update. Looks like you need Lion, and have a school-computer, so I'm not aloud to upgrade it to Lion..

It keeps happening to me too. I updated the whole computer (not just itunes) and restarted it and it's still not working.

Wow you have slow internet man, how do you watch porn?

3 devices took 15 minutes, but I'm getting the error messages. Google time to figure this out.

Apparently everyone in the world with an Apple device is trying to update right now, so Apple's servers can't handle all the traffic.

The error message means you're getting kicked off since there isn't room. This is ALMOST as much traffic as Abstract Mall gets when the winter line drops every year.

my iTunes isn't recognizing my phone. And my phone is telling me to plus it into iTunes.

I've tried different ports, and different cables. No luck
