Apple has just released iOS 4.3 for public for iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPad, iPad 2 and iPod touch 4G, 3G. Apple’s iOS 4.3 brings hotspot function, new AirPlay features, a new version of Safari, and a number of other more minor improvements.
AirPlay Enhancements
Get even more play out of AirPlay — the wireless technology that lets you stream content from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your HDTV via Apple TV.1 In addition to music, movies, and photos, AirPlay now streams video from your Photos app. So you can shoot a home video and instantly share it with everyone in the room. Even AirPlay-enabled apps and websites get the big-screen treatment with iOS 4.3. And if your photos are the feature presentation, you can play a slideshow with all the stunning themes available on Apple TV.
Safari Performance
Surf at the speed of fast. As you surf the web, your fingers will love the responsiveness of the new Nitro JavaScript engine powering Safari. It runs JavaScript up to twice as fast as in iOS 4.2.2 Which means you get more speed behind each page load. And sites with lots of interactive features can appear on your screen even faster.
iTunes Home Sharing
Share over the air. Now you can play your entire iTunes library from anywhere in the house. If it’s on your Mac or PC, you can play it on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch over a shared Wi-Fi network.3 And not just music. Watch a movie or TV show. Play a podcast. Or listen to an audiobook. On whichever device you want — without having to download or sync.
iPad Side Switch
Switch it up. Customize the switch on the side of your iPad to lock the screen rotation or mute the volume. So you can lock your iPad display in landscape or portrait. Or quickly go from volume on to volume off. Just configure the side switch in Settings to toggle between your options.
Personal Hotspot for iPhone 4
Get online in more places. On the road, in an airport, at the park — now you can bring Wi-Fi with you wherever you go. Download iOS 4.3 on your iPhone 4, and the next time you find yourself without access to Wi-Fi but in 3G territory, enable Personal Hotspot and share your cellular data connection with your Mac, PC, iPad, or other Wi-Fi-capable device. You can share your connection with up to five devices at once over Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and USB — with up to three of those connections using Wi-Fi.4 Every connection is password protected and secure. And it’s power friendly, too. iPhone detects when your Personal Hotspot is no longer in use and turns it off to save battery life.
Sometime to note before installing new Apple iOS 4.3 Update :
1. AirPlay is compatible only with the second-generation Apple TV.
2. Testing conducted by Apple in February 2011 using SunSpider JavaScript benchmark version 0.9.1 with prerelease software and shipping hardware. Actual results may vary.
3. Requires iTunes 10.2.
4. Personal Hotspot requires a supporting hotspot tethering plan from your carrier and works with up to three devices over Wi-Fi, three devices over Bluetooth, and one device over USB.
5. Multitasking is available with apps that have been developed to work with iOS 4.
6. Requires an AirPrint-enabled printer. See http://www.apple.com/ipad/features/airprint.html for a list of compatible printers.
7. Once you create a free Find My iPhone account on your iPhone 4, iPad, or iPod touch (4th generation), you can use your Apple ID and password to enable the same features on your other devices running iOS 4.2 or later.
8. Game Center works with apps that have been developed to work with the Game Center service.

We now know that the iPhone 4 antenna attenuation issue is even smaller than we originally thought. A small percentage of iPhone 4 users need a case, and we want to continue providing them a Bumper case for free. For everyone else, we are discontinuing the free case program on all iPhone 4s sold after September 30, 2010. We are also returning to our normal returns policy for all iPhone 4s sold after September 30. Users experiencing antenna issues should call AppleCare to request a free Bumper case.

If you purchased an iPhone 4 before September 30, 2010, follow these steps to receive an iPhone 4 Bumper or a select third-party case from Apple at no charge.
1. Download the iPhone 4 Case Program app from the App Store.
2. Launch the app on your iPhone 4 and sign in using your iTunes Store account or Apple ID.

Are you one of the iPhone user? What’s the version of your iPhone? What’s the must have iPhone apps that you can’t live without?
With the iPhone 4 hype and craze these few days, I would really want to get myself an iPhone but I’m too poor for it. Anyone of you could help me in getting this iPhone 4?

Is the antenna issue solve? Will we be given a free iPhone 4 Bumpers?
iPhone 4 vs BlackBerry!
My BlackBerry Curve 8520 is smaller than iPhone 4 a little but I prefer iPhone 4 because the screen size is bigger and in HD! My BlackBerry Curve 8520 cannot fight with this iPhone 4 and I love the iPhone 4 camera with focus which my BlackBerry can’t do it. I need a better camera phone so that I could just snap some food photo or some events photo in a better quality way.
See I can surf in bigger screen and facebook in a bigger touch screen too!
