iOS 4.3 apps approved; Apple release imminent?

By Chris Davies/Jan. 26, 2011 4:28 am EST

iOS 4.3 hasn't been publicly released yet, but Apple is already approving apps with direct support for the updated version in the App Store. TIPB spotted StreamToMe v3.5 [iTunes link] had been approved, complete with "support for AirPlay video (requires iOS 4.3), seemingly a sign that Apple is looking to push out the new iOS version sooner rather than later.

Whereas normally beta releases for developers are distributed on a two-weekly basis, we've seen just one week between beta one and beta two with iOS 4.3. Assuming no significant bugs are spotted, that might mean that the new version could be pushed out before the end of the month.
