I know that everyone wants over-the-air syncing and all that, but I would much rather have a better notification system and lock screen in iOS 5.
I can imagine a lot of creative/useful 'Lock Screen Apps' being released if Apple would just release an API to access it.
Like what pg said about giving an inch to a hacker and they'll take you a mile.

- kenjackson 15y agoSmart money is they'll have all three (OTA syncing, better notification system, and better lock screen) in iOS5.

- MaxGabriel 15y agoIs this like a joke..? That there isn't a source, its just a good guess? The link is to this discussion
- kenjackson 15y agoIt's meant to be sort of a joke. I said, "Smart money ...", which implies speculation. The other person responded "Sources?". If I had sources it wouldn't be "smart money" (or I guess you could argue that it would be "really smart money"). Since my statement was purely speculative, I referenced a speculative source -- directly back to the echo chamber -- myself.
- martythemaniak 15y agosome kind of basic sync and and a revamp of their notifications are good bets. better lockscreen? maybe. 3rd party lockscreen widgets? no way. Apple has resisted any kind of widgety-apps or hacks so it would be a huge reversal for them (though a very welcome one).
