FRUIT THEMED CARGO CULT Apple has lately been telling the world plus dog that it is about to release IOS 4.2 for the Iphone, Ipad and Ipod Touch.
Besides showing off pictures, it seems that the IOS Dev Center has confirmed that developers can now submit IOS 4.2 apps, in anticipation that the software update is about to hit Idevices.Apple has released IOS 4.2 Build 8C134 for the Iphone, the Ipad and the Ipod Touch, and word on the street is that the update should be delivered to Ithings everywhere by the end of the month.
The first thing anyone will notice in the Ipad is the availability of IOS Folders, alongside a variety of features that previously were only available on the Iphone.
There are some multitasking features including the incorporation of the software orientation lock and music playback controls in their new and updated forms.
It seems that Steve Jobs was impressed with the Microsoft Xbox Live Marketplace as his Game Centre looks very similar to it. No doubt Apple fanbois will be telling us that Jobs invented it long before the Xbox Live was ever created.
Still it will be nice for them to be able to download games, set matches online and upload their scores, like Microsoft gamers have been able to do for a while. (Source: Inquirer)
