Must be everyone and their great great grandmother jumping on to D/L the newest iOS updates - not to mention there is another iTunes update (75MB) as well that has to be completed too....

I'm on Comcast, wireless, and to do the iOS update via the iPad2 wirelessly, it's saying the estimated time is 3 HOURS.... LMFAO... Usually, my updates fly, as well as anything else going through my wireless... but damn, tonight, it's going as slow as molasses via Apple's site for D/L's....

So, I'm updating my iTunes (which is also going abnormally slow) and will do my iPad2 64 update, iPhone 4 and 4s through iTunes in a bit...

Not sure how some of you are able to update in 30-40 mins...

This is a pretty lean update. Not a heap that I will really use. Interested to see what difference the TV optimisation makes. Updated fine. iPad 2 Wifi 32GB

Does 5.1 have wifi hotspot for IPad?

I have no idea where where to look for that.

I just searched my iPad for hotspot and no findings.

I started the update to 5.1 on iPad 1 about 20 minutes ago and it is on update screen with progress bar saying it is preparing update, so is still going.
I started update on iPad 2 a few minutes later and it went out of update screen to blank apple logo screen, I was a bit worried but left it and it did everything in about 10 minutes.
iPad 1 has just this second gone to blank allele logo screen with empty progress bar, so hopefully will soon finish.
