iOS 4 released

Διαθέσιμο πλέον το iOS 4 από την Αpple! Οι servers έχουν φορτώσει αφού μάλλον όλοι κατεβάζουν μανιωδώς το νέο λειτουργικό για iPhone 3GS, iPhone 3G, iPod Touch 2G και iPod Touch 3G συσκευές.

Η όλη διαδικασία γνωστή για του παλαιότερους, αφού η αναβάθμιση γίνεται μέσω του iTunes. Προσοχή πάντως καθώς θα πρέπει να διαθέτετε την τελευταία έκδοσή του για να ολοκληρωθεί χωρίς προβλήματα η αναβάθμιση, οπότε αναβαθμίστε πρώτα στο iTunes 9.2 αν δεν το έχετε ήδη κάνει. Το αρχείο αναβάθμισης είναι περίπου 378ΜΒ οπότε κάντε υπομονή, καθώς η ζήτηση φυσιολογικά είναι τεράστια και είναι βέβαιο ότι θα υπάρξουν οι σχετικές καθυστερήσεις.
