iPhone OS 4.0 Beta 3 SDK 3.2.3 + iPhone & iTouch IPSWs | 3.46 GB iPhone OS is the operating system running on the iPhone(both original and 3G models)and the iPod Touch. It is based on a variant of the same basic Mach kernel that is found in Mac OS X. iPhone OS includes the software component “Core Animation” from Mac OS X v10.5 which, together with the PowerVR MBX 3D hardware, is responsible for the interface’s smooth animations. The operating system takes up less than half a GB of the device’s total 8 GB or 16 GB storage. It is capable of supporting bundled and future applications from Apple, as well as from third-party developers.
