Apple always shares upcoming versions of iOS with members of its developer program so they can beta test it before it goes public. Well, these often contain clues as to what's coming up from Apple, and the latest one released last week is no different. We just learned more about the next iPad in just that way.

There's some unfortunate news coming from Cupertino this morning. In an email, republished as a press release, Apple's CEO, Steve Jobs informed the world that he'll be taking another medical leave of absence to focus on his health.

If you love the Mac App Store purchases tab, there's good news. It looks like it's now coming to iOS. We came across this, and a couple of other features today, while playing around with the new iOS 4.3 beta.

We don't know if there's anything to it, but the folks over at iSpazio are showing some interesting bits of code that one of their readers found in the freshly released iOS 4.3 beta. It looks like Apple is prepping some sort of photo filtering functionality for the native camera app; a bit like Photo Booth for the Mac.

Apple has just released a brand new beta version of iOS to registered developers. Labeled iOS 4.3 beta 1, it seems to be mainly focused on bringing new AirPlay capabilities to Apple TV, as well as App Store Apps. That is, iOS 4.3 should finally allow developers to freely stream video content from their app to Apple TVs.

With the iPhone, Apple revolutionized more than just the mobile phone itself. They have managed to change the relationship between carriers, phone manufacturers and mobile customers. They have succeeded in creating a new model where the phone maker sells directly to customers, and while the mobile carriers can sell too, they primarily just provide the network access.

The recently leaked photos of iPhone antenna parts were legit. According to pictures taken by Engadget during the hands-on at the Verizon iPhone event, it seems the Verizon iPhone does indeed have a new antenna design.

We've just been able to confirm with Verizon's website that mobile hotspot capability isn't the only new feature the iPhone 4 on Verizon will be getting.

At Verizon's special iPhone launch event a few moments ago, Verizon announced that the iPhone 4 coming to its network will pack one particularly interesting additional functionality; Wi-FI tethering for up to five devices.

Four years and two days after launching the iPhone exclusively on AT&T, Apple finally gave in to public demand. At a special Verizon event in New York, Verizon announced that it will be launching the iPhone on its network.

Following yesterday's numerous rumors surrounding the arrival of the iPhone on Verizon, The Wall Street Journal is back at it again with even more details concerning the launch of the device to the public.

It seems like the time has come. Following another round of wild rumors earlier today predicting the second coming of the iPhone on Verizon, the largest U.S. mobile phone carrier has begun sending out invitations to the press for a special event.

The iPhone, as you probably have realized by now, doesn't have many of the basic telephony and texting features that regular "dumb phones" have. One example is SMS delivery notifications. It can be very helpful, but iOS doesn't natively support it, so what can you do when you need it?

Fans of iOS development, apps and humorous geeky sitcoms, we've got something that will without a doubt make your day. In case you missed it, the nerdy cast of the excellent Big Bang Theory dedicated last night's entire episode to making their own iOS app.

We're not sure when we'll be seeing the next iPhone. Will it arrive in June as usual, or from Verizon right after CES? Regardless, it seems the ballet of leaked parts is already beginning.

Wondering what to do if you already own Apple's creativity or work software suites; iLife and iWork now that they're on the Mac App Store? The answer is simple: nothing.

Apple unveiled the Mac App Store at an event cleverly called Back To The Mac. The idea was that Apple would take advantage of what it learned with iOS, and bring it back to the Macintosh. Unsurprisingly, many software developers followed the same path in making their first Mac App Store apps; they took a lot from iOS.

Last year Google sponsored (to promote their Nexus One phone) free airport Wi-Fi across the U.S. They also sponsored in-flight Wi-Fi over the holidays this year. Now, Google has begun yet another Wi-Fi sponsorship campaign for 2011, this time to promote their universal iOS app.

However, thanks to the help of some readers, we've been able to nail down what can be done to avoid further issues. We also have some additional tips that might serve as a good backup. Check them out...

Cupertino finally came out of its post-NYE coma last night, and confirmed to Macworld what we all already knew; the transition to 2011 did mess up the iOS 4.0+ non-recurring alarm clock functionality. While Apple didn't say whether Steve would be made available to sign notes to your boss confirming it, they did have some good news.

In today's 22nd episode of the seventh season of the iPhone on Verizon saga, we're hearing some new clues that might point to the second coming of the Jesus phone, this time on Verizon.
