61% Users Have Already Upgraded to iOS 5.1 Thanks to OTA Updates - What About You?
Over-the-air incremental updates was one of the major features introduced in iOS 5. iOS 5.1 released couple of weeks back was the second OTA update to be released by Apple.
Even though iOS 5.1 didn't include any major new feature and jailbreakers were warned to stay away from it, David Smith - developer of Audiobooks app (App Store link) reports that quite a large percentage of users have already upgraded to iOS 5.1.

LOL how is it so hard not to update? some people amaze me.... if they dont want to upgrade why accept it.....
-
nope, waiting on the unteathered jailbreak...thats why.
-
Nope. I won't do it until a jailbreak materializes for iOS 5.1. ;)
-
No way... Untethered Jailbreak must be released
-
I rather not. Update 5.1 has nothing major compared to 5.0.1. If siri was to speak spanish and understand it or even work out of USA then i would comsider updating to 5.1 for now Jailbreak seems like a bettet deal since theres no limit to what i could so with my iphone 4S. Apple always wants to be in control of my iphone even after i paid full price.

iPad2/64gb/3G - sitting at 5.0.1, not upgraded to 5.1 because I need jailbreak and ability to receive SMS using SwirlyMessage
-
Just bought my iphone yesterday, came with 5.1 on it. Really waiting for any jailbreak to come out for the 4s.
-
some questionable, How they have to measure the version ? using WebServer or Just some specific apps ? if it has been collected using Major Webserver such as Google, It is pretty accuated, but, if just use the Apps, it is just a potion of Apps User.
-
Wow, don't misunderstan,, I agree the convenience and trand to update of OTA. I am just staying about the sampling method for statics.
-
So i guess only 39% user jailbreak there idevice? Otherwise they wont be stupid enough to upgrade when theres no new jb available.
-
Your grammer lets the rest of us know, your IQ.....
-
I am with you Logan.... I would be happy with a tethered version...
-
I think my IQ dropped a few points as well just trying to decipher some of these posts :)Anyhow, im sticking to 5.01 on my iPhone 4, definitely not updating to that ios 5.1 update and losing my jailbreak. But my new iPad gets very little use without a jailbreak :/
-
Totaly Agree!
-
Lol. You could use it as a cutting board like the old guy in the video. J/k don't do that, it breaks my heart to see that video.
-
Waiting on untethered jailbreak, but might settle for tethered if there's enough reports of actual battery life improvements!
-
Anyday now with that iOS 5.1 untethered jailbreak
-
Wow I can't believe people are still downloading 3.0's why?
-
61% total of un jailbroken idevices.
-
Last time I saw a statistic jailbrake adoption rate was 10%. So I guess 5.1 should top out at 91%. 1% are really rich, really stupid or both.
-
i jailbreaked (jailbroke?) my ipad2, hence i regularly update my iphone os. i updated to ios5.1 on my iphone4s and i can really say that the battery drain problem has improved substantially.
-
Upgrade was required due to battery issues in iOS 5.01
-
U all suc
-
iPhone 3g...

"Smith points out that this is significant from developers point of view as it allows them to drop support for older versions and focus on updating their apps to take advantage of the new features introduced in the latest iOS software update."This bothers me a lot. I was planning to stay on 5.0.1 until iOS 6 came out. In the past, as long as you were on the same major version, most apps would work. Apple really should let you download older versions of apps if the new opes are no longer compatible with your current iOS version.
-
Gave old 3G to my son on 4.2.1. Really slow. Painful Apps supporting this iOS are dwindling. iOS 3 even worse for apps.
-
False, there is a 5.1 tethered jailbreak for all devices except A5 and A5X devices. Good day sir.
-
Im keeping iOS 5.01 on my iPhone 4s and notUpgrading to 5.1. It is working great with no Problems. All I hear is about all the safari security problems with 5.1 and I don't want no part of that till they get the problem fixed.
-
A tethered jailbreak is like robbing the bank for $50. You have to keep doing it every time you want more money

And your spelling is a reflection of your I.Q. too! Grammar is spelled with an "a" at the last syllable.
