Here’s our first look at Apple’s in-the-box iPhone updating machine


Presto update-o.

When you buy a new iPhone, there’s usually a software update waiting to be installed as part of the setup process — anything that was released between the time the phone left the factory and got into your hands. An earlier report from iGeneration also mentions that the machines are connected to specific servers that can access software updates 24 hours ahead of their general release. So if you buy a new iPhone from Apple after April and it comes with the latest OS version installed in the box, you’ll know you have Presto to thank.
