Well, it looks like we didn't have to wait long for that iOS 5.1 update (http://www.engadget.com/2012/03/07/apple-siri-japanese-iOS%205.1/) promised for today. The update is already rolling out to iPhones, iPads and compatible iPod touches. That brings with it a number of improvements and bug fixes, including the previously-announced Japanese language support for Siri, a redesigned camera app for iPad, the ability to delete individual photos from Photo Stream and, somewhat curiously, an "updated AT&T network indicator." What's more, as previously rumored (http://www.engadget.com/2012/02/17/ios-5-1-brings-new-unlock-to-camera-action-more-cultured-siri/), the camera shortcut is now also always visible on the lock screen for iPhone and iPod touch users.
Update: As a number of commenters have pointed out, it turns out that update to the AT&T network indicator is a change to display "4G" in the status bar, even though the device's connectivity of course remains the same speed as ever.
