The new iPhones and the free iOS 7 update are imminent



From TUAW:

The articles regarding which devices can run the new Apple mobile operating system and how to prepare for that momentous occasion of installing it on your device are plentiful.

Christina Bonnington of Wired, in her article How to Prep Your iDevice for iOS 7, offers three salient points which you should either consider or physically do with your iOS device before you install iOS 7.

The first item is to make sure your device is compatible. Our very own Yoni Heisler wrote an article noting that iOS 7 won't run on the iPhone 3GS or earlier, or the original iPad; some features will be iPhone 5 only, including some device-specific iOS 7 features. Another article by Brock Kyle from EveryMac.com details the exact iOS 7 features supported by each device from the iPad 2 to the 5th generation iPod touch.
