Apple’s March 7th event is currently rolling and we thought you’d like to know that they’ve just confirmed the availability of iOS 5.1 to users starting today. It’s kind of weird to see Apple roll the update without ever reaching a developer GM candidate, but after so many weeks in beta, it was about time. At the moment we’ve got details about Siri now being able to speak in Japanese to all iOS 5.1 customers.

Sadly Apple’s keynote didn’t provide any additional details on what iOS 5.1 will bring. With so many battery life complaints on the iPhone 4S, this update most likely deals with washing all the dirty laundry that came with iOS 5. It’s already available for download and here’s the full list of changes.
