Two new features in iOS 4.2 are:
iOS 4.2 is coming in November for iPad, iPhone and iPod touch. iOS registered developers should be able to get iOS 4.2 beta soon.
Note: More on iOS 4.2 as they are made available. No we do not encourage anyone to break the NDA.
According to Steve Jobs, iOS 4.2 is coming November 2010. That means iOS 4.2 beta will be coming soon to registered iOS Developers. iOS 4.2 will be available for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad; exceptions apply.
New features in iOS 4.2:
iOS 4.1 GM is now available for registered iOS developers. Apple might start seeding iOS 4.2 beta mid-September 2010.

UPDATE:
Apple to provide live video streaming of September 1 event.
Viewing requires either a Mac® running Safari® on Mac OS® X version 10.6 Snow Leopard®, an iPhone® or iPod touch® running iOS 3.0 or higher, or an iPad™. The live broadcast will begin at 10:00 a.m. PDT on September 1, 2010 at www.apple.com.
Apple once again is hinting at the new service they will be unveiling at the September 1 event. Yes, the live video streaming of the event is the showcase of Apple new streaming service. Why limited to Mac OS X Snow Leopard and iOS 3.0 or higher? The technology within QuickTime X is the culprit. This doesn’t mean the stream can’t be viewed everywhere else, it is just conveniently packed for the “approved” OSes.
The last time Apple streamed its live event was back in 2004, as they no longer provide it starting MacWorld Expo 2005.

Here we go again, obsessively waiting for the announcement from Apple. This time is a yet unnamed music event that will take place at Yerba Buena Center for the Arts.
The event starts at 10:00 AM, and that means many of us will be reading the reports off the Internet. Isn’t that great? We will be finding out what Steve Jobs unveiling just like Gizmodo, since they still did not get any invitations from Apple.
If you still feel compeled to read the live coverage while watching the live stream, or if you couldn’t get it for whatever the reasons are; you can go to the following links. As usual more links will be added as they are made available:
Check back for more.
