iOS5 releases October 12th as a free upgrade

[thewitt]

iOS 5 requires iTunes 10.5 so go ahead and update that now. Then iTunes will tell you the iOS update is available for your device just like past releases.

Will the download be in app store or iTunes? Where is the update for ios5 located? HELP!

It'll be in iTunes on your computer. Hook up with USB cord, as usual, then you'll be prompted to load the newest OS. It's supposed to be available to most users on Oct. 12.

Trumpet was referring to the Golden Master build, which Apple has released to developers:

iOS 5 will drop Wednesday, October 12th likely at 10 a.m. U.S. Pacific Daylight Time (PDT), the same hour that a majority of other upgrades have been released. Be aware that Apple's servers will be heavily taxed and it may take a while to get a decent connection. Waiting a few hours is often a good idea.

Like all other updates, I suspect iOS 5 will come from the iTunes store. Not until you've upgraded your unit will any subsequent updates be available from your device. At least, that is what I've been reading and have come to understand.

I have just updated to the new iOS 5 and it's great. The new tweaks are very good especially the keyboard split. Notifications centre is a lot better but it's a shame they don't stretch to the whole of the screen width on the iPad 2. The mail app is a little nicer to.
