After 3 Betas Apple Finally came out with the final version of the iOS 4.1 and has been released today. Its nothing too major, but let’s go down the additions:
- Updated Game Center
- HDR photos

- TV show rentals
It should be arriving next week. iOS 4.2, which should bring multitasking, folders, and other functionality to the iPad, will be arriving in November.
webOS 2.0 is the next generation of Palm’s mobile operating system, and it brings a number of new features that developers are going to want to use and features to make using webOS devices better. This beta of webOS 2.0 is being made available to let developers start building apps that take advantage of the new feature, and will be released to users later this year.
Here is the Official Changes from Palm Developers Blog
Palm's groundbreaking card metaphor made multi-tasking on a handheld device easy and intuitive for the first time. webOS 2.0 takes it to the next level by grouping related cards in stacks, reducing clutter, and making it even easier to move quickly between tasks.
We've renamed Universal Search to Just Type and extended it to do much more. Quick Actions makes it easier than ever for your users to update social status, set reminders, add items to a shopping list - or do whatever it takes to get things done in the context of your app.
Exhibition is a webOS 2.0 feature designed to inform, entertain and delight you while your device is docked. Set your device on the Palm Touchstone Charging Dock, and it will enter a special full-screen mode optimized for passive enjoyment and utility. While a handful of compelling Exhibition options will be built into webOS 2.0, but we're counting on you and your fellow developers to make Exhibition truly great. You can add Exhibition support to an existing app, or build something new just for Exhibition.
In webOS 2.0, we're opening Synergy up to our developer ecosystem. You'll be able to develop Synergy connectors for Contacts, Calendar, and Messaging - and later, for other webOS data types as well. Using the new Synergy APIs, you can let your users:
Connect to your chat or IM network from the webOS Messaging app
Access their personal contacts, their favorite businesses, or your community's shared address book from the webOS Contacts UI
View and manage their personal and shared calendars, keep track of their favorite sports and entertainment events, and more, from within the webOS Calendar app
Roll your own services with Node.js: The popular Node.js runtime environment is built into webOS 2.0, which means that you can now develop not just webOS apps but also services in JavaScript. The active Node ecosystem is on hand to provide community support and a rapidly growing library of modules that you can use in your webOS services.
Today, you can use the webOS Plug-in Development Kit (PDK) to build games and immersive apps in C/C++. But the feature that gives the PDK its name-the ability to build C/C++ plug-ins for your HTML/JavaScript/CSS apps-is still in beta.
This feature will exit beta in webOS 2.0, opening the door for you to distribute apps that incorporate PDK plug-ins. Using plug-ins, you can more easily port app logic from other platforms while leveraging the Mojo Framework to give users a familiar interface and integrate seamlessly into webOS.
webOS 2.0 adds a number of new HTML5 features and enhancements, giving you more tools to work with when building apps and sites for webOS.
Don't think that this is all there is to webOS 2.0-these are just the highlights. We've added a lot of features that will give your apps more power and flexibility than ever. We're excited about what webOS 2.0 has to offer, and we think you will be, too!
Some T-mobile G2 info leaked from T-mobile web servers and appearing that T-Mobile G2 has a 3.7" WVGA touchscreen, 1GHz Snapdragon CPU running Android 2.1 Eclair (with Sense UI on top, of course). Wi-Fi and GPS are a safe bet too, but what sets the G2 apart from the Desire is the landscape QWERTY.
