Apple iOS 5 beta 3 now available

Just a few weeks after the last one landed, Apple iOS 5 beta 3 is now available to developers and it brings a few new features.

The major new things in iOS 5 like the notification bar and the Twitter integration came out with the original beta and the second one brought things like WiFi syncing and OTA capabilities, so we’re still digging through the iOS 5 beta 3 to see what’s new. So far, we’re noticing some new toggles for determining location-based services and some tweaks to some icons.

Now that I have an iPhone, I’ll download iOS 5 beta 3 and report on all the changes. Let us know what you find in the comments, too.

      Unlike Apple’s OS, Google’s is “open”. Lol well that was a joke, as anyone with a half a brain knows Android is anything but open, but if it were open they couldn’t file a lawsuit.
