iOS 4.2 Goes Gold

The final candidate release of iOS4.2 (iPhone and iPad) was released to developers on Monday.

It also means that any new iPads manufactured since that time will ship with this OS.

I predict that it will be available for download sometime this week because more than anything else, 4.2 fixes the Daylight Savings Time bug that has plagued Australia and Europe.

If it doesn't ship by Sunday, then Apple will look incompetant on Monday when users relying on the iPhone to wake them up, will wake up an hour late due to the bug (the phone switches to DST but the alarms do not shift).
