iOS 5 now available

Apple has made good on its promise to release iOS 5 today as the download is now live. iOS 5 is the latest iOS release from Apple and features iMessenger, a revamped notification system and a host of other updates that many users have been asking for.

While the new OS does not provide anything revolutionary in terms of new features as it combines many of the items found on other platforms, for iOS users, it will be a welcomed update to finally rid the platform of the awful notification system.

Along with iOS 5, Apple has released several other applications to control your Airport device, Find your friends, and of course, iCloud.

To download the update, make sure you have the latest version of iTunes, connect your device, and you will be able to update your device from within iTunes.
