If you read my earlier post, you’ll know that my iPhone has borked itself for the second time in two days, requiring a complete restore from backup. I published that post at 12.15pm, and the progress bar was right at the start.
Well, it’s 2pm now, and you can see how far it’s progressed in the screencap above. That’s right: 105 minutes and it’s still less than half done. Oh, and every couple of minutes, my PC brings the restore window to the foreground, interrupting whatever task I’m doing in another application.
Nice, eh? This really isn’t what I was hoping for from Apple. Macs are famously crash-proof, but it seems the 3G iPhone is somewhat less so (unless I’ve managed to pick a wrong’un handset, of course). EDIT - it’s now 2pm, and the iPhone is back working again, albeit with three quarters of my apps needing to be synced on again. Hmm.
