iOS 5.1 Gold Master Passes Quality Assurance Testing?

ChronicWire is reporting that the iOS 5.1 Gold Master has passed quality assurance tests.

The build has been vigorously tested for the past three weeks and is rumored to have Japanese language support for Siri and a new way of accessing the camera from the lockscreen.

The build number of iOS 5.1 Gold Master is 9B176 according to a very solid source, although three different partners who are testing the Gold Master claim to have slightly (by single digits) higher builds numbers on their copies, I'm assuming that's because right now it'd make sense for those people to be testing what will soon be released as 5.1.1, so I've disregarded the claims.


Apple has not signed the Gold Master firmware on their external servers yet but official release is expected in the coming days.
