Bangalore: Apple has released the third beta of iOS 4.3 build 8FS166b for iPad, iPhone and iPod touch which is available now in iOS Dev Center (the Mac Developer Center). The new feature included in iOS 4.3 beta three is the ability to cancel App downloads anytime even when it is being downloaded. Apple has given confirmation about the feature. In the third beta they have removed one feature from the code that is the Imagination Technologies IMGSGX543 GPU bundle. This feature supported multi core CPU configurations and open CL support. However in the future version of iOS, they may bring this feature back. Apple had introduced iOS 4.3 first and second beta last month with several new features like new multi touch gestures for the iPad, restructured SMS alert settings and personal Wi-Fi hotspot for GSM iPhone. The iOS 4.3 was also reported to arrive over Apple TV software so they released a 'pre released' version of the software to test the functionality of it and the compatibility with the Apps. Using the RedsnOw solution an Apple iPhone developer managed to jailbreak the iOS 4.3 beta three for Mac.
