Apple’s iTunes Ping arrives on iPad

On Saturday, Apple “updated the backend of their iPad iTunes application to add Ping support,” Mark Gurman reports for 9 to 5 Mac.

“Ping support was added to the iPhone right around the iOS 4.1 launch so this means we’re close to the iOS 4.2 launch,” Gurman surmises.

“The full Ping experience is present as a tab on the iPad iTunes app and it includes your feed, who you follow, who follows you, a look at your profile, and even a section dedicated to concerts,” Gurman reports.
