Apple has released, after much delay, a new version of its operating system for the iPhone and iPad that finally brings “multitasking” to the iPad, in addition to a number of other features that iPhone users already have had at their disposal.
But aside from all the usual bells and whistles, there’s one feature that the forgetful will really appreciate. Apple has made its “Find My iPhone” service free, instead of tying it to the MobileMe subscription service. The service is also available for the iPad with the new release.
