In line with Apple's announced schedule calling for a release today, iOS 5 is now available to download for iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch users. Users can obtain the update by connecting their devices to iTunes and clicking the "Check for Update" button. It may take a few minutes for the update to propagate to all users, however.

Took a few presses in iTunes to get it to start the update process however, at first it kept seeing 4.3.5 as up to date.

So keep trying peeps.
