Developers have early access. There's at least one developer on these forums.

Exactly, the developers(and early adapters) were who I was asking. I know 4.2 will feature the same software orientation lock that the iPhone has, but I personally don't like it. I was hoping to get an iPad with the external orientation lock, but I guess that's not going to happen. I do wish they would let us choose which one would work better for us. Oh well

Thanks for the replies

The screen orientation lock will be on the bottom of the screen along with the iPod controls --



This is a real screen shot from my iPad (that has been registered with a developer) running iOS 4.2. You access the multi-tasking bar and iPod controls by double-tapping the Home button.

Im really confused now ..... Thought we weren't aloud to talk about iOS or OS developer's releases ??

10.6.6 downgrade ?!

Mate who are you to tell me to let it go ?? Huh

Im bringing it attention bc it seems like there are two rules/double standards.

It seems to be alright for some and not for others.
The person in the 10.6.6 thread was a Mod that pointed it out, but here in this thread it seems to be ok buy the same Mod.
Dont be sitting back behind your monitor telling me to let it be, when rules are rule ....
Im trying to get clarification if you dont mind

I'm with you TattooedMac. Any enforcement should be consistant.

This shouldn't be discussed. This is in line with other similar topics on this forum.

All developers have to sign up to a Non Disclosure Agreement reagarding beta releases. It's then illegal to publically discuss/disclose the details of the beta.

Doesn't matter now as 4.2 is out, but TM's question needs to be answered. The one day that I leave the iPad at home the release is available. Now, someone go download and report back.

11-22-2010, 09:12 AM

If software in the dev area is released as GM (gold master) then it's permissible to talk about since it's no longer under NDA and is slated for public release. Also discussion of features that have been made public by Apple is allowed.

4.2 is GM and therefore public. Xtools is also only available via dev download, but it's also permissible. OS X 10.7 is not permissible because it's still under the NDA as an example, same goes for 10.6.6 at this point.

Also in the future, if you feel a post is violating the rules, you can always use the "report post" function.
