has the iOS5 been launched? i tot it will only be launched in fall? may i know how some of you are able to test it already?

yes, the one people using now is only developer's version

Dont update if youre using ipad 2 ! else u sure regret...

ic. thanks for the clarification can't wait for ios5 + icloud... it'll completely change my 'tech' setup. sooo tempted to buy a Mac now

btw, any problems of ios5 with ipad2? why will regret?

Yes, i tried and used it on my ipad. It have limited ability. Similar as DocsToGo. Its nothing to compare with MS word. I dun mean to ask Apple to imitate MS word, but Apple already have office working software such as in MAC pc. I hope Apple can /willing to port it into ipad. But i feels like it unlikely to happen, coz Apple wants ppl to buy their MAC pc too.

just save ur shsh and u can downgrade anytime u want

many bugs on ios5 beta for ipad2.. ipad 2 will auto off, get hot.. and etc

What about ipad? If ipad2 is that bad, then ipad will be... worse? Want to get more feedback before I try upgrading my ipad..

I think you can't expect too much. even there is MS Office for iPad or Tablet or Android. It will have limitation ability. Eg : Like Microsoft Office for Windows Phone 7. You can do basic editing. Not much. If you need full features, I think it's better to use Normal PC

you're sometimes more blur and confused than I thought.

its Microsoft Office. nothing to do with Apple. got it? its made by Microsoft, supported by Microsoft & Apple has no say about making an iOS version.

Apple has nothing to with the Microsoft Office for Mac. That's built in Redmond, by Microsoft. got it?
you want MS Office for iPad? contact Steve Ballmer. don't post in a forum in Malaysia, 8000 miles away and something to happen. cos right now, MS considers Apple a competitor, so they will not do anything to make your iPad experience better.

just a reminder guys / gals. iOS 5 is still in beta. that means that even Apple is sure that its for testing only.

if you insist on using it on your daily use iPhone / iPad, remember 3 things.

1. crashes / restarts / reboots are to be expected.
2. battery life may be terrible.
3. you cannot go back to iOS 4. if iOS 5 is finalised n released in September, that means you'll be stuck with a semi-broken iPhone for the next 3 months.

sounds scary enough for me and i will stay away from it till it is official release

Since u hv said me blur n confused, but i dun think u understand what i mean either. As i said previously, i want a FULL OFFICE APPS, not a Microsoft Office in ipad. iWorks, DocsToGo, Office Mobile, name it! anything.... But currently there is NONE full working apps for document creation/editing etc. on any tablet. I just wish i can hv it on ipad.. Then ipad is so much more worth to have.

and you don't get it either. the only company that can safely build a full Office app is Microsoft. They own the rights. the .doc, ppt & xls formats are *not* open. so anyone else who makes a full Office app will definitely get sued. got that?

go bug Steve Ballmer, CEO, Microsoft. don't waste your time here. your wish is Ballmer's command

For those saying iMessage is crap compared to Whatsapp, would really suggest you try it before you comment.

It's honestly so much more quicker than Whatsapp and the level of integration (all in 1 app) is something even BBM users will be envious of!

The major issue with iMessage is that it's not cross-platform...

Apple really needs to look into addressing the time stamp restrictions on the Messages app! Not being able to see the time each message is sent/received without jailbreaking is quite absurd really.

Added on June 15, 2011, 1:02 pmHave been using the iOS5 beta on my iPhone 4 since it was launched and honestly it's not that bad at all. So far only one of my apps can't launch (2Do) and the well-known Wallpaper bug is kind of annoying.

Stability wise, my iPhone has yet to crash on iOS5. Battery life is only very slightly worse.

If i can't waste my time here, why such title implies in the topic: iOS 5 discussion. so same goes to others here, go bugs Steve Jobs or the iOS manager regarding the issues, dun waste yr time here. Im off. Good day.

they already did. pages / numbers / keynote. not an exact port but if u really think abt it, it's impossible to bring an app designed to use with a keyboard + mouse to a device with only a touchscreen.

so even if apple did allow the full iwork suite, or heck, even a full microsoft office on the ipad, u wont want to use it anyway, at least for now.
