Some days ago we posted about the changes firmware 2.2 makes to the mobile safari application. Today we’ll brief you shortly about the changes Apple is pushing in firmware 2.2 for their App Store. The biggest change graphically is a new categories page with large category icons, although these are not functional in the beta firmware 2.2.

A new update on the blog of the iPhone Dev Team has appeared. I won’t discuss this in detail but i’ll give you the full post so you can make up your own mind. While we continue working on the two current remaining challenges from Apple (the iPhone 3G soft unlock and iPod Touch 2G jailbreak…see the end of this post), we’re also watching the latest beta releases from Apple.

Apple has seeded some iPhone developers with a new beta iPhone firmware for testing. The new version is labeled iPhone OS 2.2 beta 1 and is accompanied by a new beta of the iPhone SDK (build 9M2611). Beyond “compatibility testing”, there are no other differences noted by Apple. It’s not clear yet if the new builds have any further implementation of background push notifications that have been promised by Apple.
