Get Over-the-Air Updates For iOS5 Over 3G

Even admitting Apple promised OTA updates for their accessories during WWDC, it was still cryptic whether or not it could alone be done over WiFi or if 3G could handle the load. 9 to 5 Mac letters that it can and will.

But!

There is a catch, though. Based on these SDK findings, it looks like alone assertive iOS updates will abutment downloads over 3G. Conceivably baby point upgrades like 5.1.1 will appear over 3G but 5.1 will accept to appear over WiFi. Or conceivably 5.1 can appear over 3G but 6.0 has to be downloaded over a WiFi network.

Your accessory will aswell charge abundant array activity and 500MB to additional to abutment the update. Which is apparently a astute architecture choice. More reveals are abiding to come. [9 to 5 Mac]
