should only be deployed on devices dedicated for iPhone OS 3.0 beta software
development.
• Updating devices to iPhone OS 3.0 beta software. B y installing iPhone OS 3.0 beta software on your Authorized Test Devices, these Devices are permanently “locked” into testing mode and cannot be restored to earlier versions of iPhone OS.
does this means that if I install this Beta OS, i cannot then restore to the 2.2.1 version? This is my daily phone, and if this OS version is unstable etc. i cannot simply restore? O.o  |
Apple had the same "Threats" with iPhone OS 2.0, however, if you know how to use DFU mode you were able to restore things.
If you are worried about this situation, I wouldn't update your iPhone. I would also keep an eye out for more information regarding this topic.
