Another bug with safari is when logging into devices that ask for a username/password, if the device doesnt have a user or pass, safari wont let you proceed.

This will be a bg in the financial feed data. Either the data is being displayed verbatim,, or the diff data was incorrect. If it was truely such a fundamental bug in the widget, a lot more stock would be incorrect on a frequent basis. Ergo, this is not a bug in the iphone.

Never heard of EYE-raq, where is that? Is it near ee-raq (Iraq)?

This is why I stay away from Apple products, i-phone, i-raq
it wouldn’t surprise me if they are behind that as well, the coincidence is too striking

Hi. Same “bug” on the Dashboard stocks widget.

BTW, Adam, don’t forget that the stock value is correct, only the percentage is wrong. So it’s not clear at all if this is a Y! XML bug.

See the irony that a Yahoo/Microsoft-powered widget running on an apple product is not working?

Well, I have no way to know if it’s bad XML data, all I know is that the information on the iPhone screen is faulty. That’s all it matters in the end in fact. That’s the life of a consumer product for you.

What makes you think that’s a bug and not just bad data? You like to throw around the term “bug,” but if it’s just fetching XML and the XML includes inaccurate info, that doesn’t make it an “iPhone bug.”
