Will we see a new 3.2 software release?
Everywhere in the news is the constant comments about the Ipad(which to me is already tiresome), but no mentioning about the new OS 3.2(For iPod touch/Iphone) that the device ships with installed. There are a few nifty features(like the ability to add wallpaper to the home screen and calendar/notes/contact app makeover) that I will like to see transported to the smaller screen devices. When the Ipad was announced back in January it was said by the own apple CEO that the OS 3.2 was for Ipad release only(it's was a real bummer to hear that). However, I still have thoughts that apple has some surprises under their sleeves and eventually bring some news after the Ipad release onto the market this Saturday April 3.
On that same note, apple has set the standard that once every year(around march) they give a sneak peek of the new version of the iPhone OS. For example; on March 6, 2008, was the Iphone OS 2.0 shown to the press along with a SDK release and on march of 2009 apple gave a glimpse into the Iphone OS 3.0. But this year, the timeline appears a bit off. We’re already well into end of March this year, and so far, no word about Apple being close to doing the same. Despite rumors of a newer version of a OS 4.0 bringing support for multitasking of third party apps, no word of it's release yet. It seems that of the Ipad news everywhere on the press that the new iPhone OS release has been muted(by apple) because of the recent iPad unveiling, and it’s upcoming launch on April 3. I really want to see a new software OS for the iPod touch. It's weird that the new ipad it's getting a new 3.2 OS software while the iPhone itself is still, as of this writing, is currently running 3.1.3.
