iOS 5
Not surprised to see this overshadowed a bit due to E3, but iOS 5 was confirmed today, and with it, a decent list of new features that will be headed our way in the fall. Beta is out now for those registered developers (if we have any on these forums, send me a PM please).
Major new features are as follows:
Notification center: Overhaul of how notifications are displayed. Think of how it's done on Android devices, pull down menu from the task bar. Displayed on lock screen as well, where a swipe will get you into the message.
Reminders: Location based to-do list
Twitter integration: Login with Twitter and be able to instantly post from several built in apps such as photos.
Newsstand: Used for magazine and newspaper subscriptions in one easy to use location
Camera tweaks: Small editing features added to camera app, camera button on lockscreen, volume buttons can take pictures
Split keyboard for iPad
PC Free support: Setup device for the first time with no connections, sync device cable free, OTA updates
iMessage: Apple's answer to BBM
iCloud support
