Word on the street has it that the upcoming Apple iOS 4.1 update might not be able to fix the iPhone 4 proximity problems, although we’re pretty sure that Apple will be releasing a fix in future firmware updates – albeit giving the iOS 4.1 bandwagon a miss at the moment. Apple spokesperson Fiona Martin has claimed that Apple has yet to resolve the issue at press time, so we will just have to wait for the next big update (according to Steve Jobs’ claims) for more positive developments. Currently, iOS 4.1 in its final beta testing stages and ought to hit the market pretty soon.

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.
