Apple rumored to release iOS 4.3 beta 3 today


Boy Genius Report suggests that Apple will be releasing iOS 4.3 beta 3 today to developers. According to their sources, the release will be build number 8F5166b and, as BGR mentions, will be the third release in so many weeks if it appears today. Apple must be keen to get this update out the door.

Beta 2 was released on January 19 and is rumored to have a PhotoStream service, iPad FaceTime support and PhotoBooth apps for iOS. Here's hoping Apple's rapid development gets this OS into our hot little hands soon.

Ughh I dunno I DLed the first two betas and all of the ancillary downloads (iPhone, XCode, Apple TV) and to me it is almost all much ado about nothing.

I'm waiting for the final version now, I am too busy to muck around with 4.3 B3 anyhow :-/

Well, some of us might be devs, so it would be interesting for some. By the way, golden masters often (always?) might lack the code that checks for dev udids, as they are hopefully identical to the release.

Too bad they essentially gave up support for the 3G...a device that is only 2 years old.

Just be glad you're not an Android owner with one of their many devices under a year old but unable to upgrade to their newest software releases b/c of the device makers!

Proofreading seems to be gone in general. Check out this quote:

"...gets this OS into out hot little hands soon."

Should be into OUR hot little hands soon.

I've got an idea - You do better! Write for a massive audience with numerous entries per day and never make a typo that won't show up in a spell-checker.

Now go! :-D

Why do a post on rumors of a third beta release. Must be a slow news day...

Correction. It will not be the third release in as many weeks. It will be the third release in four weeks. You should know this since you even write that beta 2 was released 2 weeks ago. Guess basic math is not needed to be a writer.

Don't know whats the big deal. Its not like we consumers can use the beta with out registering our UDID. So to me, nothing exciting, unless 4.3 B3 adds some really cool features. Already not liking th new FaceTime icon on the iPod touch.
