Chitika Insights has completed a study into the adoption rate of iOS 5 following its October 12th release.

According to our data set, 38% of iPhone users had already updated their mobile devices to the latest version of iOS. The iPad came in second in our study with 30% of all users updating to or already using iOS 5. This is an interesting statistic as it illustrates the similarity of the iOS version distribution of both the iPad and iPhone.

The iPod registered the smallest count of devices updated to iOS 5, with only 12% of users choosing to upgrade. This demographic is made further evident by the portion of devices running on older versions of iOS, with almost 80% of consumers using iOS 4.

Take a look at the chart below to visual these numbers...

I'm tethered. iOS 5 is great, but still misses a couple of things only JB is able to provide (as BT connectivity to external gps devices, five icon dock, sbsettings). The semi-tethered cover for the fear of having a useless device in case of a dead battery. Could be better, of course, but is doable.
