If any of you folks already installed the update, please post the version / build numbers.

 

[craznar]

wouldn't that be 4.2.1....

4.2.1 would be an upgrade from 4.2 ...

 

[sl1200mk2]

Anyone know the direct download links?

 

[DiScO197]

Coming in pretty swiftly here in the UK considering I'm on the tail end of the exchange with a very mediocre connection speed!

....Apple's servers are already clogged...

You mean akamai's servers.

 

[caspian]

Yes, What about 4.2.1 that I install?

What about 4.2.1?

I can't seem to restore my iPad to factory...I can't seem to see the release version of 4.2...what gives?
If it's same as GM version...where's Find Me?

 

[Sdahe]

In a few minutes I'll be there...



Would this erase the phone?...

4.2.1 would be an upgrade from 4.2 ...

i was at 4.1 and it downloaded the 654mb file and is installed and rebooting the phone right now..

 

[Daveoc64]

why would you say this isn't 4.2.1

just finished downloading it and it is installing now... the file name is iPhone3,1_4.2.1_8C148_Restore.ipsw

wouldn't that be 4.2.1....

That was the iOS 4.2.1 GM seed's build number from last week.

It's likely that they just renamed it to 4.2

 

[rworne]

Hmm. 4.2 installed, and I go to check the iTunes store for all those cool updates...

Nothing there.

 

[ayale99]

Downloaded and installed on iPad. Itunes says its 4.2.1

 

[photographypro]

4.2 is really 4.2.1

13 min to go here in Italy, although things suddenly slowed down.

 

[jefwong]

40min to go in Hong Kong

Where is the Apple Tv Update ?

 

[craznar]

It seems that in the prerelease, there was an update to 4.2, called 4.2.1, but to simply things, now that the "official release" is out, on your phone the final version will be called simply 4.2. However, the file name includes 4.2.1..

So anyone on 4.2GM is stuck on 4.2GM with no path to 4.2.1 ?

Nope; I've completed the download and installation and I'm up and running. It's 4.2.1 (8C148) as per my About screen in Settings.

I can imagine a Scottish IT manager on the phone with Steve Jobs:

"I've givin' 'er all she's got cap'n!"
