And if you have an Apple TV you can also stream video.

 

Manufacturers are already on board. This speaker looks quite nice. http://ihomeaudiointl.com/discover/airplay/

 

cheers looks a good idea

 

This still seems to be quite a while away, probably not even the revised date of 24th November.

 

I called into the Apple store and they still don't know when the upgrade is out but what they do know is it will allow you to roll back to another OS

 

From the look of the dev seeds it does not update the baseband, or at least on of the chaps was able to downgrade from 4.2 to 4.1. I could see how if there wasn't a baseband upgrade that you could downgrade the OS, as the new baseband is tied to the OS, older OS cannot use new baseband and vice versa.

There was a 4.2.1 GM seed released on thursday, probably to address the known issue with background voip apps.

 

Today

 

Now in fact ... just installing.

well that sucks! the only thing i was interested in with this update was the free 'find my phone' thing, but Apple in its wisdom has not allowed it on the 3gs

 

Just noticed the update is available, best get on it!

 

all done and dusted

 

Was going to download it but my iPad is STILL backing-up!

Been going for just over an hour now and it's only about two-thirds done!

Will have to leave it for another day now.

 

600mb+ download so quite a biggie

BTW if you want airprint but dont want to spend £xxx on an HP printer, then for $7.99 you can use your own printer

iPads seem to take forever to back-up: My wife's can take up to 3 hours and mine takes 1 hour. One of the applications apparently causes it, although I don't know which one.

I see they changed the font in notes

 

i upgraded ipad and iphone4 - iphone is meh, but ipad is more responsive!

well worth it.

i am so impressed with ipad, that if they improve the screen on iPad 2 I shall get one regardless.

 

Have a look in iTunes, specifically the "Apps" section of your Library. You can view in list mode and then add a column listing size. It'll probably be the largest one that is slow. Also, if you have mail setup, or a large photo album, that can slow it down too.

 

Done the update

 

Just been using a 3G with 4.2.1. Have to say it is rather slow, very much so compared to a 3G running 3.1.3 and performing the same tasks. Granted I was doing something with a webview and JavaScript and the js interpreter could be a but manky but it was not a pleasurable experience. If I had a 3G i would stay on 3.1.3

3GS and iPhone 4 seem happy enough as does iPad. Nice to finally have parity between the devices

 

Aha, was wondering how the multi-tasking thing worked.

Didn't realise you had to double-tap the main button to access the menu....D'oh!

 

best take that off you, far too technical
