Apple has announced that iOS 4.1 is coming as soon as next week as a free download for iPhone and iPod touch. The announcement came at Apple's massive media event being held at Yerba Buena Center in San Francisco, California. Reporting on the event, AppleInsider said that according to Apple, iOS 4.1 has one big surprise, a new feature called High Dynamic Range (HDR) photos. As you might expect, Steve Jobs was very happy to demonstrate the new feature at the event, explaining that HDR involves the camera taking three different photos in rapid succession - one normal, one underexposed and one overexposed, which then combine to make an HDR photo. Both photos will appear in your Photo roll, so that you can compare and contrast.

Also reporting on the event, Engadget said that the update will have bug fixes for the proximity sensor, Bluetooth and iPhone 3G issues, and that other exciting new features will include HD video uploads over Wi-Fi, TV show rentals and the long-awaited multiplayer and social gaming service, Game Center.

so how does this effect jailbroken phones? I assume that if yours is jailbroken you
wont be able to update because you will lose your jailbreak?
 
welcome! and yes you do, its the same with any software update you lose the jailbreak until there is a jailbreak for that firmware
 
thanks that is what i thought. I will wait to do mine but i will go ahead and update
the wifes so i can see how it is.
 
smart move, let the wife be the test dummy

proximity sensor fixed, game center added, recpetion bars tweaked a little bit, and high dynamic ranged photos, im probably missing some stuff but those were the ones i could think of off the top of my head
 
Thanks for the info. Another version of iOS has been postponed, and Apple zealots will have to wait for an iPad update. Software program problems hinder Wi-Fi connection with iOS 4.2 equipped devices. Apple fanatics will simply have to keep themselves occupied with other activities until it is released. It ought to be out by Thanksgiving. All those who took out a payday loan.
