1. I read on the net that it is not possible to update ios to the latest 4 developer version from a windows machine. Is it true?

2. Do you jailbreak? If yes, for what reason?

3. IOS5 - is there any breakthrough for music applications that would make ipad software developers abandon iOS4?

With a jailbroken phone you can:
-Unlock to use with any carrier
-Customise your lockscreen (see Intelliscreen in Cydia! MISS this in iOS5!!)
-Unrestrict 3G: download more than 10mb from AppStore, fool any application to be on WIFI when you really use 3G.
-Use your iPhone as a wireless modem (I think iOS5 can now do this too)
-Minor useful hacks: see a thumbnail for each contact in the contacts list
-Custom gestures to activate applications (See Activator in Cydia)

okay, so in terms of non phoning ipad and mainly music app controller use, ios5 is no critical update?

Post

Why would you not want to upgrade?

Post

Because of lost multitouch functionality on ipad1.

No new 'breakthrough' for music apps that I know of..
