However, this percentage may rise as the launch of this update approaches.
The improvements everyone seem to be most looking forward, with 58% of the votes, is the Wi-Fi synchronization, enabling its users to wirelessly sync the iOS device with their Mac or PC. The second one, at 52% of the overall votes is the Notification Center to have all of the warnings appear in the same place.
With a new platform inevitably come new features! Half of respondents are most excited about the iTunes Wi-Fi/3G synchronization of purchased songs.
