Here's Apple's list of limitations that reveals which devices get which new iOS 6 features. Notably, the iPhone 4 does not get FaceTime over 3G, Flyover, Turn-By-Turn Navigation, or Siri.

The List:

● Flyover and turn-by-turn navigation will be available only on iPhone 4S and iPad 2 or later. Cellular data charges may apply.

● Siri will be available only on iPhone 4S and iPad (3rd generation) and requires Internet access. Siri may not be available in all languages or all areas, and features may vary by area. Cellular data charges may apply.

● Shared Photo Streams requires iOS 6 on iPhone 4 or later or iPad 2 or later, or a Mac computer with OS X Mountain Lion. An up-to-date browser is required for accessing shared photo streams on the web.

● FaceTime over a cellular network requires iPhone 4S or iPad (3rd generation) with cellular data capability. Carrier data charges may apply. FaceTime is not available in all countries.

● VIP list and VIP and Flagged smart mailboxes will be available on iPhone 4 or later and iPad 2 or later.

● Offline Reading List will be available on iPhone 4 or later and iPad 2 or later.

● Made for iPhone hearing aids require iPhone 4S.

● Find My Friends and Find My iPhone enable you to locate iOS devices only when they are on and connected to a registered Wi-Fi network or have an active data plan. Not available in all areas.




Siri Updates For iOS 6

Siri has come a long way in iOS 6. You can now ask Siri about latest sports updates, make reservations in your favorite restaurants using OpenTable service, ask Siri about latest movies with Rotten Tomatoes, watch movie trailers, ask about actors and directors and more. You can now launch apps, tweet directly on Twitter. Apple has partners with Audi, BMW, Mercedes etc for a hardware button for launching Siri. Support for Canadian, Italian, Korean, Mandarin for Taiwan etc.

Siri Now Available on iPad (3rd-Gen)

While the much-changed Maps app is arguably the centerpiece of iOS 6 as a whole, it will also be remembered as the moment when Siri finally reached the iPad. Apple’s system-wide voice recognition software has been much-lauded by Tim Cook’s company since first featuring with the iPhone 4S back in October, but the lack of support for other devices – particularly the all-conquering tablet – has left many iDevice enthusiasts bemused.

On the iPad, it looks much the same as on the iPhone version, but given the 9.7-inch display, the voice partner doesn’t command so much real-estate – allowing most of the background to be seen when activated.

By also releasing the Siri API, developers can now integrate Siri into their own apps, which will finally allow the voice-powered implementation to be unleashed and realize the huge potential it has in the mobile space.

Native Facebook Integration

Those frequenting Facebook will be pleased to know that integration for the world’s foremost social networking site has been stepped up greatly, in a similar fashion to which Twitter was welded into iOS 5. If you wish, your Facebook login credentials can be saved onto your device, which subsequently makes logging in, linking, and posting status updates, pictures, and location to your profile from any app, or natively from OS’ Notification Center a much more streamlined process.

Updates for Stock Apps & OS-wide Features

Native Phone app has received an update, a “Do Not Disturb” and “Repeated Calls” toggle has been added to Settings.app. FaceTime over Cellular is now available.

Safari has been updated with support for offline reading lists, ability to upload photos directly from Safari. Mail has been updated with pull to refresh for messages in inbox.

You can also now share Photo Steam pictures with your friends.

Other features include:

Guided Access
New Game Center challenges
New Privacy Controls
Redesigned Stores
Added ‘lost mode’ to Find My iPhone service
New 3D Maps

Apple’s desire to rid iOS of Google Maps in place of its own, in-house offering is the worst-kept secret in Silicon Valley, and today’s Keynote at WWDC gave us an in-depth insight into what we’re going to be seeing with the new maps app.

Thanks to the Cupertino company’s acquisition of C3 Technologies, iOS 6 will feature a beautiful 3D mapping offering, and in terms of aesthetics, it’s beautiful to look at. We have more on it in a detailed post here.

Baidu Search

Chinese consumers will see Google Search replaced by the fast-growing Baidu, which, along with the maps situation, is another body blow to the US-based web company.

Baidu has become the search engine of choice in the world’s largest market, so Apple is operating on a supply-demand basis, although won’t be shedding many tears for the huge potential revenue loss on the part of its compatriot and fierce rival.

Availability

It only seems like yesterday iOS 5 arrived in a hail of glory, but the previews of iOS 6 on display today show Apple has been working hard on updating and improving its software for the hundreds of millions of iPhone, iPad and iPod touch users worldwide. As of today, iOS 6 beta is available for registered developers of iOS Dev Center.

Final version of iOS 6 will become available to the public later this year alongside the next iPhone, which, as you might expect, Apple neglected to mention today.

Hindi pa nga ko makaget over sa 5.1.1 eh B-)

Just finished watching WWDC 2012 live stream and iOS 6 beta has been released with 200 new features and bad news sir, hindi supported ipad1 ng iOS 6.

Yeah, I read the notes, unfortunate. Phase out na kasi ang mga model na iyon.

Update: Download iOS 6 Beta For iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch From The Apple Developer Center

  Warning sir! iOS 6 Beta is for devs only, if you don't have a developer account the device won't activate or you won't get any carrier signal for iPhone, and there is no custom firmware to preserve the baseband.

I strongly suggest regular users not to update or play with it.

woaooaoah??? di ku pa naeenjoy ang 5.1.1 may 6 na agad??? hmmmmp... wait aku if available na ang UJB niyan

Ako din hihintayin ko UJB, pero malamang matagal pa yun kasi fall pa release ng iOS 6 along with the new iPhone.

MuscleNerd has successfully jailbroken iOS 6 on an iPod Touch 4th generation device. Unfortunately, that jailbreak isn’t publicly available.

Up! Added Apple's list of limitations that reveals which devices get which new iOS 6 features. 🙀

iOS 6 Beta Gets Tethered Jailbreak, Grab it Now

Wala pong cydia yan sir, devs lang ang pwede.

Pero pwede mag SSH to install tweaks! Buti pa mga devs, pero at least they already have a jailbreak.

Edited

supported pa rin pero may mga features na disabled kagaya ng iPhone 3G running 4.2.1

End of story na ng ipad 1 ko on iOS 6.
