Apple has sent out the first beta version of iOS 4.1, with associated SDK, to registered developers.
According to the first user reports, Apple has changed the display of signal strength as promised, but there seems to be no improvement in reception as such. In other words, those who live in areas with poor reception, will still encounter dropped calls if you hold the iPhone 4 in the “wrong way”.
Among other news mentioned is a minor change of the virtual keyboard, and Game Center is available again. The app was in available in the beta versions of iOS 4.0, but was dropped in the final version.
With regards to the performance problems for the iPhone 3G and the second-generation of iPod Touch, there is still no news.
To download the beta of iOS 4.1, you must be a registered developer.
