My old iPod touch used to do similar, would put cover art on the wrong songs. When I re-synced everything (wipe clean then reload) it fixed the problem. Maybe you can try that. I think it happened when I would interrupt the sync process by stopping the sync, think that screwed up the album art.
Yes, that was going to be my next step, a full restore. The funny thing is that the "random cover art" I was referring to is actually random Genius Mix cover art. The ones with the four square album art covers. Like this...
I have both the Airport router and Airport Express, and my phone talks to them just fine.
Thats just me of course
I know everyone isn't effected, but many are. Just check Twitter, it's being a huge issue for weeks. It's sort of like when you update your Mac OS and get no issues, you wrongly can assume there are no bugs just because you haven't been effected.
I think it still may be. My friend's linksys wifi router hates my iPhone, while at home it works great. Might be a WPA issue on either end.
It's not a router problem, you sound like a fricking Apple tech support person I was talking to.
I have wifi addresses in for 4 separate locations. All friends houses (work won't allow iPhone on the network).
I have the problem at every house and all of us have different routers. I'm the only one with an N Router. D-Link Dir655 with the latest firmware update.
It's a iPhone OS problem. Just do a search for "wifi problems with iphone 3.0".
It's not an isolated issue and not router related.

I doubt the OS would only affect some and not others. It's an OS problem no doubt.
Apple should be more concerned with fixing that than crippling the Pre.
I hope this addresses a strange problem I've been having where the album art (not coverflow) randomly assigns album art to various videos, tv shows and podcasts.
Odd. That should have already been fixed with the last (previous) update.
Interesting, 3 iPhones here (1 3GS, 2 3G) all running 3.1. No problems here with WiFi. Not complaining that's for sure!
when my wife got a 3G i put it on our work wifi
tried with my 3GS and it didn't work. the password is very long and it wouldn't take it. we have enterprise Cisco wifi at work. both iphones work fine at home on an old linksys router
Don't expect that until 4.0. In the meantime get a Pre. I'll stick with one app at a time, but much richer apps.
Personally I've only ever wanted one type of multi-tasking: The ability to play a radio app in the background. That's all.
That is what I think, too, with the 3GS also getting multi-tasking capabilites, not the original or 3G as they just don't have the HW for iPhone OS X to run background apps well. I expect some sort of Setting to turn on a bcjground app or two so that when you press the Home button it insteads minimizes. Maybe to a small icon in the Menu bar.
The argument for background apps usually is limited Internet radio sincr listening to audio is one of the few widely useful things you do whilst in another app.
What I'm most interested in seeing in v4.0 is a much better messaging window, closer to what Android and WebOS have. I would like a list of all previous messages listed so I can read them in full without having to enter the app and zo I can pick ad goose which to read. After that, I want to have my phone auto-send certain numbers to VM; for instance, numbers that aren't in my address book, but that may be a carrier feature.
Perhaps you turn your router off every time you leave your room?
NO complaining here either actually- it gives me some excercise to get my butt off the couch.
Nope, Time Capsule Extreme and an Airport Extreme (both with current firmware) always on here and are very reliable for me. I do IT for a living and use WiFi in multiple locations every day with a variety of brand name hardware. Solid! ATT 3G coverage in my area is another story! Has improved over the last year but has a way to go by comparison to my former provider Sprint.

And I'm crazy? Simmer down now!
It's entirely different.
I have an Apple Airport express.
I thought everyting is supposed to just work in it's own ecosystem.
Oh no he's off again.

I just want to be able to send texts from inside of open apps

Yeah, "quick reply". Check my comment bottom of page one. Agree.

It is not the router. It is not the router. It is not the router. It is not the router.
It's not the router that hates the iPhone, it's the iPhone that hates the router, even Apple ones. It's a bug in the bloomin' OS!

Edit. WiFi was fine before 3.0 at all locations.

Give me multi- tasking Apple and not next June .
Since you demand it not be next June, it will be the June after that. So there.

I am thinking of jailbreaking my iTouch,
Of course you are.
Because you call it an iTouch.

Who cares what he calls it. We know what he means.
