iPhone SDK Beta 5 Now Up: Bug Fixes, Updated OS Support

@Paradise: The only issue is with plugins, but as the article states most are JS and may be allowed. Still, plugins aside, Mozilla could actually build in a version of Flash 9 into the browser for full flash support, but it would have to be in the app itself to be allowed.

The rules seem to only be preventing apps from running in the background, calling other apps, and doing things naughty things (like running torrents and making VoIP calls over the cell carrier's data network).

@Leonard Nimrod
Dunno if they did with this release, but on the last few, they deprecated several methods(especially in regards to UITableView).

@Paradise: FireFox can be added by Mozilla if they want.

@Illuminator: Why would you have to rewrite it? It's still the same SDK, your app will work as is does today. Or do you prefer software to stagnate so you don't have to bother optimizing your code anymore.
