Steve Jobs and the gang have confirmed during the WWDC keynote address in San Francisco’s Moscone West that the iOS 5 software sports a revamped and vastly improved notifications systems. There are over 250 new features in iOS 5 and more than 1,500 new APIs. The first feature Scott Forstall put up on slide is the new notification system. It’s called Notification Center and it’s a new place that collects all you notifications. And how do you access it? Just swipe down from the top, like on Android. Plus, you get stocks and weather in the Notification Center. Stay tuned as we update the post with more info right below the fold.

Notifications also show on the lock screen and you can slide your finger over each to go straight to its corresponding app. Tapping X makes the notification go away. A handy stocks ticker scrolls in the top and the notifications screen goes away with a simple upward swipe.
