imageiPhone OS 4 Now Called iOS 4; Release Date Is June 21

Steve Jobs announced at today’s WWDC Keynote address that they will be renaming iPhone OS as iOS so iPhone OS 4.0 is now iOS 4. It makes sense as iPhone OS for iPod Touch and for the recently launched iPad didn’t seem right. We’re also hearing rumors that the new...

    I really like some of the new features, another step away from Jailbreaking.
    Now we wait for Comex & Dev team to comment ;-)

    I think that one of the main reasons to Jailbreak is Tethering. I'm planning on keeping my $30 data plan and run MyWi as soon as it becomes available for iOS 4.0. Also, I like to see how 3G Unrestrictor would perform with video conferencing over the Cellular Network.

    Yes you can. As they AT&T says it, if you already have the existing unlimited data....they will grandfather it onto your 4g. Only new customers will have those horrible options. I feel sry for them.

    I can't believe there are still people out there that even use a stock iphone the only thing on mine that resembles the iphone is the body; the rest is KDE or Nexus themes with 30,000hz text tones. Its called Cydia people wake up !!

    Get at me for screen shots or tones

    Hmm think it's not enough to not jailbreak Tim?
    Looks good tho, and bite SMS etc would be icing on the cake :)

    just had some 'PlayTime' with the Dell Streak.......It's well nice but could do with the 2.2 droid fw

    iOS4 looks really featured, think Apple are secretly listening to the 'forum voices' at last.
    Now, if they added Shrink, My3G & Infinidock to '4' id be happy

    Haven't been home since we last talked Craig, not forgot those disk's though, away in a sandy province for a while longer mate

    it's only really available for Mac users b/c there isn't a windows itunes 9.2 out just yet.

    itunes 9.2:

    working ipsw of ios4:

    you don't need itunes 9.2 to actually install ios4, but to activate the phone and all you need to have it.

    What's up with copying Cisco's IOS name for operating system. Wish Apple could get sued for using iOS. Since they sue everybody else.

    Cisco has apparently licensed the iOS name to Apple so it won't be sued.

    Seriously, jailbreaking is completely pointless. What is it useful for? All that happens is your warranty becomes void, and your phone now looks like a different phone. Frankly it's annoying, as you can't read the text under the apps with the personal background, and it just looks stupid when you change the apps to other pictures.I think I may be the onlyperson in the world to jailbreak their iPhone, then undo it because it was the most pointless move in the world. Really, why did you buy an iPhone, then hollow out the insides and stuff in some crap from a Nexus. JUST BUY A NEXUS!

    Now, n00b. Here's a little history lesson. iPhone come out. No app store! Dev team make their own app store(technically they didn't, but they made it possible). Apple go "that good idea!" and make app store.

    Let's zoom forward in time. iOS 4 multitasking; Already done! Pic behind wallpaper; done! iPhone tethering; done! Unified inbox; done! In fact, there aren't many things apple haven't copied.

    Cisco licensed them to use that name, Apple went to them before they officially called is iOS

    It would be cool if the camera could be upgraded from 3gs to 5.0 mega pixls. After all, there are apps which enable 3g users to take videos...

    I've finally been able to install iOS4 GM on my 3GS now that iTunes 9.2 is out for windows.

    I'm wondering if there's a way to fake iPhoto faces & events information, so it'll show the apropriate options.

    I'm assuming iPhoto just uses custom tags to tag photos with faces and events, which the iPhone detetcts and displays.

    Anybody have any idea how to do this in Picasa or Windows Live Photo Gallery Wave 4? I've tagged faces using WLPG4 but am not getting the 'faces' option on my iPhone.

    Places does show up and works perfectly, even with photos that are geotagged via other programs.

    Anybody have iPhoto and can analyze an iPhoto tagged face pic for any clues?

    Jailbreak still required. Tethering with the AT&Ts grandfathering will still require Mywi or you will fall under the new 2g of data plan
