Official counting down to iOS 6 forum party!

[TheRealEChiz]

Brutally stoked for iOS6 to drop today! Counting the hours, minutes and seconds. Thanks to Rene and iMore for all the helpful insider information. Mad respect

@ eklenken - Congrats!

I've been on the GM builds since they came out, so I'm all geared up to move onto the final releases!

I thought there really wasn't anything different between the GM and the public release.

I'll be updating my iPad 2 this afternoon during my son's nap time (if 6 has dropped by then).

I'll have to put my 3GS in another room so it doesn't get jealous. I still haven't told it about getting replaced Friday morning...

...well, well, seems I need to perform a 'clean' install, too. That seems to be the most popular choice, and thus overall recommended.

Curious, are the iMore apps already updated to support iOS6 and the iPhone 5?

OTA updates have to be done on wifi right?

shouldn't be. as long as the build # stays the same

Waiting patiently in Illinois. Going for the iTunes install since I'm not connected to Wi-Fi today. I'm not looking for anything in particular, just want what new things will be available to me since I'm still on the iPhone 4 and can't upgrade for about 6 months yet

Alright.Let's go

 

[k_kjong]

somehow I can't wait for stock iOS again, since my 4S has been jailbroken since Absinthe for 5.1.1 came out.

I'm anxiously waiting for the IOS6 update too. I think I'll be getting most of the features (4S) so I'm really excited. The features I want to try first are Siri; Do Not Disturb and the update notifications for email. I'm in central time so I'm not sure when the update will be released here (Texas) so I'll just keep checking.

Also, I'll be doing the update in iTunes.

This is it. Today's the day. If history is any indicator, iOS 6 should land at roughly 10am PDT/1pm EDT today. I'm hauling ass to get our review ready, but if you're waiting like we are, why not wait with us?

What's your favorite new feature? Find any awesome hidden gems? Are you going to update over the air or install clean with iTunes? Anyone feeling left out because their device isn't getting something?

There's so much to discuss! We'll get the rest of the writers and staff in here, maybe give away some more stuff, and in general have some fun.

So, hang out and shout out. Who's ready for iOS 6?

Have you a time for the uk release .
Thanks .

I'm not worried about performance on my 4s, but does anyone know how iOS6 holds up on the 4? Wondering if its worth upgrading my moms phone.

If its over 50MB yeah

 

[lefty_dinc]

Ready for ios6. I hope the servers don't crash with all the traffic.

 

[Munale]
