The wait is finally over. Apple has released the final version of iOS 5 to consumers. iOS 5 is a major update of the operating system for Apple's iPod touch, iPhone and iPad. Apple claims iOS 5 includes over 200 new features, with noticable features:
Notification Center, an innovative way to easily view and manage notifications in one place without interruption; iMessage, a new messaging service that lets you easily send text messages, photos and videos between all iOS devices; and Newsstand, a new way to purchase and organize your newspaper and magazine subscriptions. With the new PC Free feature, iOS 5 users can activate and set up their iOS device right out of the box and get software updates over the air with no computer required.

The exciting Siri (beta) is currently available to iPhone 4S only.

For more features about iOS 5, please visit: support.apple.com/kb/DL1456. iOS 5 is available via iTunes.

Precautions should be taken if one has critical un-archived data - of any nature.
