***The iOS 5 Thread***

[neil_g]

So should I start updating now? Or do I install the new iOS and then update the apps?

if theyre available now then do them, theyll be backwards compatible

 

[Cavallino]

So just to confirm. Siri is not available for iPhone 4?

Not available for the 4 I am afraid

Not yet anyway, whilst it is in 'beta' form. IIRC there was mention that it could be made available to other devices once past beta

Yeah, as do I, but you never know, in maybe 3 months when the heat is off the sales...

 

[Marky]

Anyone know when we can expect magazines/newspapers on the iPhones Newsstand?

[mad_weegie]

wow Scotland getting something first..... lol

 

[Somnambulist]

Yeah there's a few magazines on Newsstand already, I think Wired was the first.

 

[baron02]

I cant access the newstand store on my iphone

 

[ChrisSmith3]

The only ones that appear in the Newsstand store are:

The New York Times,
Disney Family Fun,
HowItWorks Magazine,
MacUser Magazine,
Sidewalk Skateboarding,
China Daily,
and, Comic Heroes.

 

[Skully]

Newsstand works here, after turning my phone off and on again.

 

[Eddie182]

Not a great selection for launch then, although to be fair I expected as much. I knew that T3 and The Times wouldn't be being as they are the only two things I subscribe to.

And I've just restarted the phone and the store is indeed working now.

Booo no Siri on the 4

Was pretty much the only thing I was looking forward to :/

Has Apple announced anything about combining Apple IDs yet? I've got a MobileMe address which Find My Friends is making me use and I use for email, but my iTunes account is tied to my Gmail account.

I'd rather just use the MobileMe (iCloud) one!

Never has been part of iOS5 - they need something to sell the 4S with after all
