Other The iFail- wait sorry, iPad, is officially out

iPad firmware 3.2.2 was released sometime today i think, fixes a few bugs, i think regarding PDF's. Still a good old 400+mb download.

afaik all it does is fix the jailbreak vuln - no point, just install the PDF patch off cydia.

 

iPad OS 4.2 is supposedly due in 2 days (12th) although there is no official word from Apple.

Have been using 4.2 on my iPad for a few days now. The folders work great, the combined email accounts work well, I haven't had a chance to use the print feature yet, and multitasking is slowly becoming my new best feature.

 

All I use my ipad for is zombie rush... really addictive!

 

Too bad about the orientation switch

 

Installed it now, but it is for iPhone?

 

4.2 Supposedly delayed by about a week due to a wifi bug or something.

Air Print delayed? Nah, not if you know what's going on under the hood:

Copy the files, re share the printers and Robert's your mother's brother.

 

It's good that 4.2 had been delayed to fix the wifi issues: I can't browse for more than five minutes before it just stops working. Cycling airplane mode is getting extremely frustrating.

 

iOS 4.2 for ipad build no. 8C134b just got put out - it fixes the wifi issues. will report back once i've updated.

Update: it's alive!! Wifi works fine in this release, no dropouts and it seems a bit snappier too.

 

iOS 4.2 now rumored for 24th November Release.

Crocodile snappy, or Alligator?

I've bought a 32Gb 3G iPad for MrsGOO for Christmas... I had to physically restrain myself from firing it up and having a go when it arrived last week.

I also got her one of these in ostrich skin leather for it:

It's along the lines of the dodocase, but seems to have a larger variety of cover options. It's very well made, and from the video on the site, it'll stay put in there, unlike some of the reports I've heard on the Dodocase.

If I ever get an iPad myself, I quite like the old school marbled notebook look.

 

Just for fun, download and install OnLive Viewer (free) - I just watched a gamer strangle an NPC in Assassins Creed. The gfx are actually better than I thought they would be, but still not great. However, as a voyeur, great fun to check out the Arena and watch others playing.
