What’s new in iOS 4.3

Several beta’s have been released from Apple for the new iOS 4.3, but what’s new? This post explains it all.

Photo Booth

Photo Booth is coming to iOS devices with all those great effects you have come to love in Mac OS X. It will most likely be on the iPhone 4, iPod Touch 4 and the new iPad.

No more iPhone 3G

iOS 4.2 was the last version for the iPhone 3G and iPod Touch 2G. So no more updates for those two devices.

Personal Hotspot

iOS 4.3 will bring the Personal Hotspot feature to the iPhone and iPad since AT&T gave it the go ahead.

iOS 4.3 brings the option for iPad uses to change the use of the hardware switch. Either mute the sound or use it as orientation lock.
