First Look At Over-The-Air iOS Software Update [iOS 5 Features]
When Apple unveiled iOS 5 at WWDC 2011 Keynote, one of the features it showcased was the OTA software update.
iOS 5 Beta 4 that was just seeded to developers of iOS Developer program is also available as an over the air (OTA) software update, which makes it the first OTA iOS Software update (from a developer point of view).
How does it work?

isnt there a jailbreak for ios5
-
Was that even relevant?
-
True dat!
-
speak english.... what da f**k
-
Lol. ;-)

It will be harder on jail breakers but for non-jail breakers it is a great advantage. Also apple is trying to make all I devices pc free that is why ota updates are now aviable.
-
So cool, however it wont work with jailbroken devices!
-
I'm sure there will be a tweak to enable it on jailbroken devices much sooner than later.
-
I was having problems with mine updating yesterday. after a couple tries it worked perfectly fine. :)
-
My update downloaded and installed just fine. Any word on just what new features / improvements, etc were installed? Sure wish I could turn off the multiple routes in Maps, that's for sure.
-
So if I'm understanding this right, it downloads a 128MB update automatically. What about people on the 200MB data-plan. Isn't apple forcing them into an overage?

there's a magical thing called Wi-fi.(;

Yes, turn on your wifi but rest assured, it doesn't update "automatically". You have to accept the EULA first before it'll download, then accept the EULA a second time to install the downloaded update.Cheers!
