YouTube user InfoZenn has posted a very nice walkthrough of iOS 5 on an iPad. Amongst many of the new features, he also shows off some of the new multi-touch gestures that were originally tested in iOS 4.3. Swiping can be used to switch applications (left/right) or to bring up the multitasking bar (up). Pinching with four or five fingers can also be used to return to the home screen. iOS 5 is due for release sometime this fall.

Please take the responsibility of converting videos from Flash as not everybody has flash installed their machines or iOS devices?

Thanks

This video works fine on iOS devices. YouTube also serves up non-flash content if you have things configured properly.
