Still no iOS app data backup in iTunes?

June 30, 2010

We’ve now seen four generations of iPhones, have witnessed iterations of the iPod Touch, and seen the birth of the largest iOS device, the iPad.

We didn’t give much thought to iPhones overheating last summer, when reports were going around about iPhones shutting down after a certain internal heat threshold was met.
