BGR: iOS 4.3 GM Next Week, Build 8F190?

Boy Genius Report claims Apple has finalized the code of iOS 4.3 and a GM build with version number 8F190 should be available in a few days, perhaps next week. We’ve heard Apple was set to release this build weeks ago, but major issues were found in Bluetooth connectivity, AirPlay and camera roll, among others.

One of our Apple sources has just informed us that it looks like Apple has finalized the code for its upcoming iOS 4.3 release. The build, we’re told, is 8F190 for those keeping track.

At this point it seems clear that Apple will announce the availability of the GM build at next week’s media event, where the next-generation iPad will be unveiled as well. The iPad 2 is rumored to run an updated version of iOS 4.3 with FaceTime and Photo Booth enabled.
