Finally…iOS 4.2 (beta) for the iPad is here!

Today is a good day for the iPad. Having grown accustomed to the features and nuances of the iPhone4, I couldn’t help but yearn for the little things that my iPhone could do, but that my iPad fell short of. That said, iOS 4.2 is really nice to have running on my iPad.

Top things for me?

1. Unified Inbox – need I say more
2. Brightness widget – one of the key reasons I’ve been jail breaking was for SBSettings feature to do this easily. Granted I like swipe gestures over double-tap, but it works great.
3. Icon folders – 8 really painful pages of icons down to ONE!!
4. Multitasking – already used it to bounce between Mail and Safari and Maps and for the universal apps that already updated for the iPhone, it’s just as it always should have been.

So far, everything looks great and I haven’t run into any big bugs yet. But even if I do, iOS 4.2 is here to stay.
