OWNERS OF OLDER IPHONES and Ipod Touches will be in for a nasty surprise if they decide to update to the latest OSX for Iphone 3.1.

The point release - which is supposed to improve security, reliability and fix bugs - also stops all devices older than the brand new Iphone 3GS from accessing some Microsoft Exchange 2007 servers, according to reports.

Users are telling us that after installing the update, a message informs them: "Policy Requirement - The account [account name] requires encryption which is not supported on this iPod/iPhone". Although the encryption policy is a server side option, thousands of users have been succesfully syncing to these servers for many months without problem.
