Apple has seeded the Golden Master (GM) version of iOS 6 to developers today. The GM release represents the final version that will be shipped to customers. Apple will be releasing iOS 6 to customers as a free download on September 19th.
Apple has provided an extensive preview of what's new in iOS 6. This includes Maps with turn-by-turn directions, enhancements to Siri, a new Passbook app, Safari improvements and more.
iOS 6 will be available for the iPhone 4S, 4, 3GS, new iPad, iPad 2 and 4th generation iPod Touch.
I think it's pretty ridiculous that they support iPhone 3GS, but not the original iPad. They were still selling the original iPad about a year and a half ago. They still have original iPads that under warranty.
I guess when you buy an Apple product now, you can expect to be dumped from software support before your device is even old?
How can you acknowledge Apple's support for the iPhone 3GS, yet claim they don't support old devices in the same post? Rather than being disappointed that they don't support both, you should be impressed that they support one. If these were Android devices we would be lucky to get updates for the iPhone 4S.
