    OK, dude, but don't forget that language evolves! There's also no need to go out of your way to tell me your gender and rough age unless you're looking for something else...
    If I implied, I did not state, and I did not enroll in the program to test anything other than my own code on current and upcoming platforms, be able to run stuff I write that would never get accepted in the App Store on my own devices, and report bugs that prevent my own code from working on those platforms. I did not agree at any point to go out of my way to test Apple software. I Do Not Work For Apple!
    I have code to contribute, that's what developers do.
    What I want is Google Maps back, and we both know that's not gonna happen.
    I don't dispute that (nor do I know what Siri has to do with this argument at all) as I love Siri as well (though you're actually referring to Dictation, not Siri) and use it daily to setup reminders and calendar events.
    If Apple forced anyone to report anything, we'd all be submitting obvious stuff to meet the quota, thus defeating the final goal.

    Not here to argue. I'm also not looking for "something else".

    I do however love the Urban Dictionary link you provided. Next time I have an issue with a word I might just use the Ebonics dictionary...

    I had some trepidation, but I upgraded the iPad. I'm really impressed with how smooth it is. Getting away from raster maps really helps.

    Well good on you. Your experience should have been the experience of 99.99% of all upgraders, but we know that is not the case. Forstall is responsible for the FIASCO.

    Don't throw out numbers you can't back up.

    Who says that it isn't? Show me 99.9% of comments about Apple's new Maps saying that it's less smooth than the old Maps app. You certainly won't because it's in this area where the new Maps absolutely shines.

    Gee you guys are anal. 99.99% was used t make the point that all consumers of new products should not have to expect to encounter the problems that exist with Forstall's foray into mapping. Even if the problem is a lot less, it doesn't matter, Apple has egg on its collective face, Samsun g and Google employees are pissing themselves laughing and the internet is full of anti-apple tirades. Am I one of tose anti-Apple people? No, I'm a part owner of the company who doesn't want the brand tarnished by sub-standard launches of products. I want Forstall to be held accountable.

    The past several months have been a bit chaotic at Apple. There's amazing talent but we can see how Steve Jobs was able to corral it into a sharp stick.

    I read your post as congratulating someone for having a good experience, and 99.99% of upgraders should of had the same experience.

    I have tried flyover and there's something about it that really has been nagging at me. I wonder what the parameters they've used to determine where it stops are. I live in Chicago, and noticed the stopped just south of Hyde Park at 63rd St, leaving out over half of the city's South Side, not to mention th south suburbs, while they rendered the whole of the North Side, well into the northern suburb of Evanston. They've rendered a lot of the West Side, and none of East Side. What's up with that?

    They should've made the maps app an option in the iOS store and go with Google Maps. However, Google was always free to release it's maps app to iOS store like the youtube app. So... Google may have wanted to make this a moment for them to highlight their Android platform by not releasing a maps app.

    I think the opposite idea—what is happening now—will be far better for the long run.

    If they knew the new mapping system was not up to par, they should have labeled the app as "beta" like they did with Siri, and allowed users to keep using the old maps app through an app-store download. It's inexcusable for a smart-phone to have such a faulty mapping facility, especially the iPhone, which should be 'cream of the crop' in all ways.

    It's really weird. Playing with the iOS6 Betas I did think Maps wasn't that great but I thought that either this was because I was in Australia, or that Apple hadn't yet "switched on" the main servers with ostensibly better data (for the USA and the rest of the world).

    Well, you gotta trust your instincts. I knew something was fishy with iOS6 Maps, and turns out...

    Vindication is a dish best served with lemon raspberry jelly.

    Forstall looked pretty haggard (relative to his previous appearances) at the iPhone5 keynote. Poor guy, really. He is the next Apple CEO, to me anyway, but I'm not sure if he's riding the waves okay right now. Awesome but really tough times for him too, I think.
