📱iPhone OS 2 Beta 5 (Big Bear)
Build - 5A274d was released 6 May, 2008 for:
• iPhone 2G (1st gen.)
• iPod Touch. (1st gen.)
iPhone OS 2.0 beta 5 doesn't do a whole lot else besides throwing in small tweaks to the UI, tweaks to the developers tools and some bug fixes. No big feature addition like last time, but you gotta update if you're making iPhone apps. You just gotta! There probably won't be very many more of these before the next iPhone's out.
