Some nice new features have appeared in 9.3b which unusually dropped on a Thursday night.

The night mode is pretty good, as is the ability to manually choose the colour warmth of the display, and has an auto 'night shift' feature which removes the blue light from the display (supposed to stop you sleeping if you read displays with blue light).

According to research, it is the same blue light that many device makers are getting rid off in their respective ‘night modes’ since it has often been blamed to affect circadian rhythms that disturb a user’s sleep cycle.

Loaded on my iPad 4 and running well, Battery Life seems to have been nicely boosted, despite heavy usage I only had to charge my iPad after 3 days, it got to 5% this afternoon.

9.3 b2 and now b3 seem to have screwed up battery life on my Air 2. Used to get a full day of use easy with around 20-30% left by midnight when I go to bed, now I'm down to 10% by 6pm and having to charge if I want to use it at home in the evening. Not too happy...

It's very fair to assume the public release of 9.3 will launch not long after the supposed March event then....

Jailbreaks seem to be far and few between now

Yeah, definitely faltering.

Pangu/Taig came out with a few quick one's though, just when it seemed all was lost. But definitely the long waits between jailbreaks is seeing interest wane somewhat.

Meh, I'm so over jailbreaking. It was fun at one point, but I don't really care about the customization. The only reason I would jailbreak is for speed intensifier

I would rather Apple plug all the holes like a gangbang whore and give me a secure, stable OS because.... FSCK the FBI :)

I would agree, I used to jailbreak at every opportunity, last couple of years I haven't bothered, iOS does what I want now.

TBH! I don't even root my Android phones anymore...
