It's been over three months since Apple last updated the iPhone OS to version 3.1.2. And while that's not an unheard of amount of time between updates, it is quite a bit of time to go without any word that a new update is coming soon. Why? It could be because Apple doesn't want to tip its hand about any information about the upcoming tablet, a new report today suggests. "There hasn’t been an updated iPhone OS build because there’s too much tablet-related code/references in the OS and Apple obviously didn’t want that to leak. Oops," is what Boy Genius Report says it is hearing from an Apple source it trusts. That news comes with a few other bits, including that the tablet's multi-touch gestures are "out of control," that it's powered by an ARM processor, that it (obviously with the above information) runs on the iPhone kernel, and that it's basically an "iPhone on steroids."
