iOS 5 has been in development for the last few months, with 7 beta versions issued to registered developers so far. As the operating system gets closer to shipping stage, we're now hearing reports that it might be scheduled to be sent to manufacturers during the last week of September in order to be installed on the upcoming iPhone and iPod touch.
If you own an iOS device, the greatest roadblock to browsing the web you've ever run into has been Apple's insistence not to build in native support for Adobe Flash, citing performance issues that the plugin would cause. While today's development doesn't change Apple's stance, Adobe has developed a new technology that could, 4 years later, finally bring Flash content to all iOS devices, namely; iPhone, iPad and iPod touch.
It's September already, which to all iPod enthusiasts across the world means new and refreshed iPod hardware. While not much is known about a possible updated iPod nano, shuffle or classic, new sources are pointing towards a brand-new iPod touch with 3G connectivity, as it had been reported a few months ago.
Over the last decades, we've witnessed a trend of an increasing number of large retailers going out of business or becoming less relevant by the day. GameStop, a popular game retailer, is trying to counter that trend by tapping into a growing and profitable market of iOS devices.
Along with the release of iOS 5 Beta 7 moments ago, Apple has also released iTunes 10.5 Beta 7 in order to bring its jukebox software up to par with the newest release of iOS 5.
If you're a regular reader of this site, then you're probably aware of iOS 5, the next major release of the operating system that runs on iPhones, iPads and iPod touches. While the system's main features have been outlined by Apple two months ago, and the brilliant piece of software is believed to be very close to a public release, some still expect new features to be introduced at the last minute, perhaps exclusive to the long-awaited iPhone 5.
If you've been following the Apple news recently, you're probably aware of iOS 5 Beta 6, the latest build of iOS 5 which was seeded to registered Apple developers. The first question you might be asking yourself is whether this new release can be jailbroken: the answer is yes, we have tested and can confirm that this latest seed of iOS 5 can be jailbroken using current version of Redsn0w (by pointing it to iOS 5 Beta 5 firmware), on any device other than the iPad 2.
As you might be already aware, iOS 5 Beta 6 has just been released. In order to sync iOS 5 Beta 6 devices, however, you'll need to install iTunes 10.5 Beta 6, which was also seeded to registered Apple developers today.
Two weeks ago, iOS 5 beta 5 was released and can already be jailbroken using Redsn0w, but those who were looking forward to using Sn0wbreeze on beta 5 are now able to do so with a new version of the tool that was released today.
When the iPhone first came out, it was the first ever mainstream device of its kind to be powered by a multi-touch display. Before then, people would use a pen, otherwise known as a Stylus, in order to interact with mobile devices.
