Some new features and information reported by TUAW readers:
New beta build is called 5A258f
SDK download is 1.15 GBs
Firmware sizes about 200+MB each for iPhone and iPod touch
Code signing is now ENFORCED by Apple.
SDK no longer uses the Aspen code name for the simulator.
Audio Toolbox got a big load of new stuff
NSXMLParser support
UIFont is re-done with ascender and other professional font support that has been long missing
There are definitely some very interesting methods added to UIApplication’s delegate, including methods for badging the Springboard icon, and methods related to gaining and resigning “active” status - seems like background apps may be permitted somehow.
