    IOS 5.1.1 update on the New Ipad

    If I am not experiencing any of the bugs & issues this update was released for, is it really worth loading ? More so when there have been further problems reported by those that 've taken the plunge on their iPhones & iPads

    Hi Tara, I was going to ask the question in a different way: what does this new update do? And I'm surprised there isn't a whole lot of discussion on it already! I was tempted to go the the update page and see what it had to say, but I'll bet it won't tell the whole story.

    Cheers!

    I wouldn't upgrade if you are jail broken as there isn't any compatible jailbreak for this version.

    Since you are into posting links, that explain the issues experienced with an iPhone, that link gives you some pretty good idea on what you'll encounter with updating the iPhone. I'm assuming you are wanting to know about your iPad. Here are some links that you might want to further read, FROM this forum:

    IOS 5.1.1 issues

    Does 5.1.1 improve battery life

    Anybody Upgrade iOS to 5.1.1?

    Shed light on the aftermath? Only time will tell, this was just released a week ago.

    Really, regarding your concerns of after math...it's hard to say if there is any yet, since the updateis fairly new. I updated mine a day after it was released and my iPad is running fine. I use it quite a lot here on this forum and have not noticed any issues ...for me at least.
