Well Apple needs their own mapping solution like Nokia anyways its gonna happen sooner or later. They could of let us use google maps while they iron out the bugs in the map but i guess its a double edge sword, the more ppl they have using it and complaining about it the faster it will get better on the other hand they could also rapidly lose supporters.


I'm more worry about the 5s, i'm a die hard apple fan and i find the iphone 5 while a worthy upgrade, extremely boring. 5s is gonna be even more boring

It mainly comes down to the software features and not the hardware. the hardware this year didn't disappoint me, it was iOS6 that didn't bring all these ground breaking features like iOS 5 did.

Battery life has been amazing for me so far, but then again ive only used it for texting, light browsing, and IM apps. I noticed LTE browsing does drain it a bit. Have kept voice calls to a minimum to stretch out that buyers remorse period

So lets all share where we can find the cheapest lighting cables and adapters when they come out. I can't see myself paying 45 for that adapter cable, fuck.

^ditto need a few cables and car charger. I'm liking the faster transfer speed and super fast charging time.

It could also be some sort of switching chip considering the cable is made to be able to plug in either side up. If that's the case, it would probably need to be able to "identify" which pins on the phone are V+ data+ V- data- etc. since they would be "wrong" one way without an intelligent means of "switching" that.

Someone with more electrical engineering knowledge would probably be able to give a more definitive answer with regards to this, possibly.

nabs its cause we're using the phone lol.

ipod and browsering is pretty mild.

also if you guys want to get chat on your phone, just use google chrome, and use desktop mode.

I used to use atomic web, but it doesnt refresh chat properly anymore

Safari really needs desktop mode. I don't want to use chrome. Safari is faster on iOS and builtin

atomic web is 3-4times faster than safari for me.

nabs, im betting it was when you first setup mail accounts, and it pulled everything down, and all the new apps.

The sad part is they tested these maps, they knew how bad they sucked yet someone gave it the green light anyways...do they hate google that much that they'd rather ridicule themselves than wait till they got their shit together?

If Steve Jobs was still alive he would have made 100 percent sure that the app was ready at launch. I think now the guys only care about monies.
