When do you guys think iOS 4.3 will be released? Im thinking this week? Does anyone know?
 
Rumor has it that "The Daily" magazine for iPad (coming this wednesday) needs 4.3 for subscriptions etc. I think 4.3 is imminent because there was no beta release last Wednesday as was expected. I think there's a 95% chance we will see a GM release of 4.3 this Wednesday with an official release on the 9th.
 
its close that is for sure. iOS4.3 is the only OS to support subscription services that the "Daily" needs. so with a press conferance coming up soon, we'll see a 4.3 release soon after. For a hard date..no one can actually say....

i was under the impression that the verizon iphone was going to ship with 4.3 and be available on the 10th. if thats the case, then apple would make it available for general consumption on or before that date, no?

When shown at the press event the Verizon iPhone had 4.2.5. I don't think anyone knows if it'll ship with that or 4.3.
 
Something is telling me that the 4.3 version isn't that far away. If we don't see it this week, I guess it will become available next week.
I don't base this on any informations, it is just my feeling.
 
Yes you are correct, the VzIphone4 is out on the 10th which would mean AT&T users would have it by then also or on the same day. But The Daily's press conferance is on the 2nd. So really anytime between now and the 10th is up in the air though. Like i said..no hard date yet.

No one knows when it will be released, but we do know that there's no way it's going to happen this week. Apple releases a Gold Master at least a week before releasing to the public, and 4.3 is still in Beta.

So next week at the earliest (if the GM gets released this week). Could be longer (there's not really any reason other than the subscription stuff for the iPad that would force them to release earlier than later). The Verizon stuff is in 4.2.5, and presumably works ok.
 
is 4.3 tied to the iPad2's release date. That is when the iPad 2 is out, we should see 4.3. If that is the case, then it should be out any day especially since the GM has been out for nearly a week.
