According to some screenshots sent to BGR from an Apple source, it looks like Apple is internally testing iOS 4.3 multitouch gestures on iPhone 4 as well as iPad. From the screenshots, it looks like 4 or 5 fingers gestures are the same as the iPad in the first beta of iOS 4.3.



This is not shocking as Apple's willing to remove home button from next generation devices.Engadget thinks that the iPhone 4 could have a bigger screen or it could just be placeholder text from iPad and less fingers will be required if it goes primetime.

As most of you know, Apple won't make this multitouch gestures available in the public release of iOS 4.3. So, why are those gestures? Well well well, may be iOS 5?

This one could be real. As most of you know, the original iPad had a 27 on the calendar app because it was launched on January 27th. Now the new one has 9 on the calendar app so Apple may announce the iPad 2 on Wednesday, February 9th?

Earlier today, Apple has dropped iOS 4.3 beta 2 to the iOS Dev Center. The new beta shows more and more evidence that the iPad 2 will get 2 cameras including the FaceTime one.

As you notice in the screenshot below found in this beta shows a preview of your wallpaper sections in iOS 4.2. The image includes FaceTime, Camera and Photo Booth apps.

And as MacRumors notes, Apple is expected to launch the iPad 2 in the first quarter of 2011. Stay tuned for more evidences and updates ! [via MacRumors]
