iPhone OS 3.1 shows iProd device

There is definitely a new device brewing from Apple, although we don’t know what it is. Most people will probably think that this is the upcoming (and rumored) tablet, but until there is an official statement from Apple, there is no real point in speculating. The latest iPhone OS 3.1 beta release did refer to a type of “iProd” device, pointing towards configurations for “standardMuxPTPEthernet” and “AppleUSBEthernet” – and both of these currently see action on the iPhone. What do you think of this iProd device – is it a tablet, or something totally different?

iOS was once upon a time called iPhone OS, or "operating system", which is the software that provides all the basic device functionality and is the interface between the hardware and applications. iOS was introduced with the iPhone on January 9 2007, and it was originally not intended to be programmable by third parties. Steve Jobs had envisioned that developers could create Web Apps that would run in the browser. This changed less than one year after when the iPhone SDK (software development kit) was introduced in October 2007. Today, hundreds of thousands of apps have been created for this platform. iPhone OS became iOS on June 2010. Interestingly, both iPhone and iOS were former trademarks of Cisco, that Apple now uses under a license.
