So, tabbed browsing isn’t the only thing coming down the road for BlackBerry OS 5.0 – @Jsanders10 has just posted a batch of screenshots showing off a few other cool updates.
- Auto-updating clock based on time zone
- Extra remote wipe options for SD card and user-installed apps
- Updated application list with icons
Other updates for enterprise users include e-mail flags and file access, and considering we’re seeing all these screenshots floating up all of a sudden, it’s probably a safe bet we’ll be seeing OS 5.0 in public and on a new device sooner than later.
