In cursul acestei nopti Apple a lansat OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2 beta build 12C50, o versiune a sistemului de operare care aduce in sfarsit integrarea cu reteaua de socializare Facebook, posibilitatea de a sincroniza numerele de telefon pentru iMessage/Facebook si functia PowerNap pentru MacBook Air 2010. Pentru acest build Apple a inclus si un changelog, deci exista posibilitatea ca aceasta sa fie versiunea finala a OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2 avand in vedere ca ea contine cateva noutati care aduc practic, compatibilitatea cu iOS 6.
Noul OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2 este disponibil in portalul dedicat dezvoltatorilor pe website-ul Apple. Dintre toate functiile implementate de catre Apple, cea mai importanta este sincronizarea numerelor de telefon cu iMessage/Facetime, deoarece daca o persoana va suna pe numarul vostru, voi puteti raspunde pe iPhone, iPad sau Mac, acelasi lucru find valabil si in cazul iMessage. Practic acum Apple va da posibilitatea de a raspunde unde doriti acestui gen de apeluri/mesaje, iar masura aceasta trebuia luata acum multi ani.
