When IOS 5 becomes available, will I be able to download it directly to my IPad 2? I don't have a computer.
Thanks

No. You will be able to update 5.0.1 that way, but iOS 5 will still require you to connect to a computer running iTunes.

Apple stores will doing this as a free service I understand from an employee.

Not to sound like a noob, but what is the difference between 5.0.1 and iOS 5?

The first release of iOS 5 will be 5.0.0. It will include the ability to update future versions - iOS 5.0.1 for instance - over the air without a computer attached to iTunes.

The current version 4.n does not support over the air updates.

How does one get on the Apple notification list to hear when it is released?
