*iOS 4.1*
Today, Apple introduced iOS 4.1. Steve Jobs noted a lot of fixes and new features, including:
* various bug fixes for Proximity, Bluetooth and iPhone 3G
* High Dynamic Range photos
* HD video upload over Wi-Fi
* TV show rentals
* Game Center
High Dynamic Range photos consist of essentially three separate images so that it will gather midranges, shadows and highlights effectively. As I mentioned earlier, HD video uploads and TV show rentals, and Game Center–a hub for multiplayer games.
iOS 4.1 will be available next week for iPhone and iPod touch. More on this then!
*iOS 4.2 for iPad*
The iPad should feel special, because it’s getting its own (i)OS update. iOS 4.2 is all about the iPad.
This is why it’s hot:
* wireless printing for iOS on your iPad
* AirPlay to stream video and audio over Wi-Fi from your iPad
* add apps to folders, just like iPhone, as well as multitasking
The update will be available in November, and it’s free for iPad users. We’ll be writing more on this as soon as we get our hands on it.
