This may sound a little funny but there was no official word when Apple would release iOS 4.2 for the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad to the masses but the assumed day of release was today. But many reports have popped up saying that it has been delayed due to WiFi issues on the iPad. Wait, what?

Tons of users have indeed complained that their iPad running on iOS 4.2 have faced serious WiFi issues, some being able to connect to a WiFi hotspot then suddenly the connection drops, and other funny and mysterious things happening like being connected and not being able to browse anything at all. It’s been reported that Apple is now going to release the final version of iOS 4.2 somewhere around in the middle of this month. We’re not sure when, but it’s a good thing that Apple irons out all the quirks before we see the final version otherwise we’ll see something like iOS “4.2.1” on the next week of iOS 4.2’s release.
