iPhone Firmware 4.0 Beta 2 Now Available To Developers
Earlier this afternoon, Apple pushed out the iPhone SDK 4.0 Beta 2 and the iPhone 4.0 Firmware Beta 2 (8A248C). This comes just under two weeks since the original release of iPhone 4.0 Beta 1 on April 8, 2010.
Apple typically follows a 2-week release schedule for beta releases of iPhone firmware.
The firmware 4.0 update is to deliver a slew of new enhancements, some of which are detailed below:
- Multitasking
- Custom homescreen backgrounds
- Camera 5x Digital Zoom
- Application Folders
- Places and Faces in the Photo App
- Bluetooth Keyboard Support
Also remember, if you have your iPhone/iPod Touch jailbroken or unlocked, you should not update to 4.0 when it is released, as you will lose both your jailbreak and unlock.
