    Note that you will need the just released iTunes 10.6.3 to install. You’ll also need your UDID registered to a dev account which can be done here:

    Finally got my UDID up and running and I have downloaded it. Here’s a few things so far:

    1) Maps crashes – a LOT. Everytime I try and type in an address and it will crash.
    2) Type too fast on your keyboard and the “click” Sound can’t keep up
    3) Notification Center occasionally freezes and won’t come down. 
    4) PassBook DOES NOT function. All is does is have a screen that shows what it can do. (Probably won’t be live til the final release, i.e. Newsstand.)
    5) FaceTime does not work in Beta 1 (3G). 
    6) Siri does work with the new updates and is FANTASTIC. This is heads and tails better than anything the competition has. It is better at Voice Recognition, faster and so, so smooth. 
    Overall, this is a very nice Beta considering what iOS 5 Beta 1 was last year. It’s still rough, but dare I say that it looks that Apple could release this sooner then iOS 5 was last year, or at least have less Betas released for it.
