Do you have to be a paid developer to get access to these beta updates?

Direct access yes or if you know someone with developer access and they register your device then you you can apply the updates on yours.

word of warning, I had to restore my iPhone with the iMac today after it gave me the "connect to iTunes" screen after installing iOS5 B7. This was installed in a iPhone 3gs iOS5 B6.

My iPad worked fine and was able to restore from iCloud no problem. My other iPhone, which is an iPhone 4 worked fine.

I don't know what happened, but after googling, it seems plenty of people needed to restore with a PC/mac after the installation.

So basically what I'm saying is, its nothing major unless your away from a computer.

Just done mine and it's now asking for iTunes so I'm having to D/Load the IPSW.

I'm assuming I can manually restore with Beta 5.7 as I tunes was looking for a much older IPSW.

I downloaded the beta 7 itunes and restore the ipsw from that - basically as it was locked out did it manually.

Yeh just manually restore and all will be well ;)

Im back to IOS 5 now but not used it much to see if there is anything amiss.

I'm not using iCloud yet either.

I wonder when the official release will be?

I have 30 iPad 2's here and refuse to do anything until iOS 5 comes out only for iCloud! No point in me buying an app on 1 then needing to buy it for another 29 whilst with iCloud I get the joy of it going on all the devices (or this is how I see it works?) just needs to hurry up out!
