iPhone OS 4 Beta 4 out today?

[vizkiz]

Didn't beta 4 on the 3.0 series also break the bi monthly release?

Found this online for 3.0:
* Beta 1 (7A238J) was released on 13 March
* Beta 2 (7A259G) was released on 31 March (18 days later)
* Beta 3 (7A280F) was released on 14 April (14 days later)
* Beta 4 (7A300G) was released on 28 April (14 days later)
* Beta 5 (7A312G) was released on 06 May (8 days later)
* 3.0 GM (7A341) was released on 08 June (33 days later)

That would be nice. Maybe the beta would be able to get installed on Windows computer then

Since it's only for devs I wouldn't count on a Windows version. I can't remember if they've done that before.

Maybe a little reminder would help: http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/28/iphone-os-3-0-beta-4-itunes-8-2-pre-release-now-live/

Weird. Why though?

I agree it would be great to see an iTunes pre release so folder syncing is not broken anymore.

It used to be up later in the day when iTunes was included.

Well, where the heck is it!!!?

The last 2 updates came around 21:00 hour. (Amsterdam)
I refresh the dev page every minute or so...

I think the beta will come tomorrow...

 

[sam3020]

No it won't come out tomorrow. It will be today or won't be till next week

 

[Switchview]

How do you know that ?

 

[PhoneI]

because Tuesday is "magic day"

 

[sam3020]

Because it has never come out on a wednesday

 

[Switchview]

Haha allright! I'll just wait. I'm not so long an apple user, so this is all new for me. But i like the mysterious style of Apple.

 

[sam3020]

Lol you will get used to it. Usually they always release new beta versions on Tuesday and then usually announce things on Fridays

 

[GreggM3]

I believe there was a beta release for 3.0 on a Thursday or Friday.
Actually the first release was a Friday and the May 6 release last year was a Wednesday...

I am starting to think it will be next week. It's after 5pm here in NY and it's not looking good for a release today...

Apple is based out of CA

 

[GreggM3]

Apple is based out of CA

Yes, I am aware but they usually release betas by 5pm EST. Not always but usually...

 

[vizkiz]

One of the 3.0 betas was ready for DL after 10 or 11pm EST last year.
As some have mentioned, it will be later if there's an iTunes update with the beta.

I love how apple has made so many people "on edge" over their beta's. I myself have been waiting for this beta since the first one came out, hoping it will be bundled with the new itunes so I can finally backup on windows.
