Apple has released a new version of iOS 5 to developers, iOS 5.1 Beta, and some new device identifications have been found inside iOS 5.1 Beta, which include a reference to the iPhone 5, with iPhone 5,1, the current iPhone 4S reference is iPhone 4,2.
As well as the reference to the iPhone 5, there is also a reference to the new iPad 3, and the changes to these reference names mean that both the new iPhone 5 and iPad 3 are likely to come with major hardware changes over the existing models.
We are expecting to heard something about the new iPad 3 early next year, which could be released some time in March or April, with regards to the iPhone 5, we wonder if Apple will switch back to the June / July release date for the new iPhone 5, as the iPhone 4S was released at the start of October.
