Will this sort Keynote?
Has anyone any idea whether the new build is likely to resolve the current issue with Keynote/Lion and the dreaded beach ball? I was considering going back to Snow L this week but will hang on if its likely to be remedied. Views, thoughts appreciated...

Yeah, that's basically the wish list a lot of us have. If I could flick for multitask bar, I'd only have to hit home button to exit apps and turn on screen, which I'd love.
This. If Apple is going to announce a "one more thing" feature, such as the rumored Nuance integration, the GM can only be released after the announcement.
We are not going to see the GM before the announcement.
one more thing is generally left for new hardware not necessarily iPhone 5 specific
probably bug fixes for working with iCloud before they officially update the apps
Doesn't matter. Whatever they have planned for the Next Big Feature, whatever it is, Apple isn't going to put it into a beta that's released BEFORE the announcement. There are too many people dissecting the betas for Apple to take a risk like that.
The GM will come out AFTER the announcement. Of course, if we're unlucky, we'll see another beta instead of the GM.
Umm no. Its been pretty split between software/hardware. The iTunes store, safari for windows, FaceTime, selling movies through iTunes and iTunes Match were all unveiled as "one more thing".
Well with ios5 you have the four finger sweep up to bring up the task bar and you can sweep left and right to move between apps plus do the five finger pinch to return to the home screens.
In combination with the smart cover I never use the home button!

Except that it likely isn't true. Too bad, because some of the features would be cool.

I'm surprised we haven't seen many apps that are updating for ios 5 yet, but I guess that's what GM is for right?

there have been a few apps adding compatibility but theres no official updates allowed till iOS5 is officiailly released
iPhone 5 is new hardware last I checked...
Apple hasn't had a decent "1 more thing" in a LONG LONG LONG time. This would be a good one. I just couldn't see voice search/commands being tied only to the iPhone 5. Maybe not the 3GS, but surely the 4 could handle it
Okay, I'll bite on iTunes Match one more thing being a good one. Face Time was expected (and nothing new that hadn't been done before, just implemented a little better.) Leaks kill the momentum on "1 more thing" sadly. I miss the jaw dropping excitement of days past.

The latest iOS beta is still buggy as hell especially the music.app. I wouldn't be surprised if there were at least a few more releases.
And what are they going to do about the new voice capabilities? Ship them without letting developers test it? Maybe they'll save voice for iOS 5.1.

iTunes back to music
I would like to see iTunes get back to music only. If you think about it iTunes, which was for music now runs all the iPhone and iPad apps. It's too much clutter. The iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch need their own separate piece of software.
I know the reason Apple hasn't done that because iTunes is their link into the world of Windows and they probably don't want to make Windows users download another piece of their software.

I know what you mean regarding the clutter, but some might argue that having four (or more, if you are talking about it not handling video) different pieces of software for what one can do now is more clutter, not less. I use iTunes for music, tv, and movie purchases/rentals, to organize my ripped movies and CDs as well as music downloaded from other sources, and to sling music and video around my house via AirPlay. I can't even imagine if all of the functions of iTunes were split into their own pieces of software.
