Finally, some folks who have actual data and experience... It's also worth noting that one of the biggest criticisms that Android advocates use to criticize iOS is that there really isn't any true "background" multitasking in iOS. And that is abso…

We scheduled a try on to see the sizes in person. A web site can't show you how something looks on your wrist against your skin and bones... We completed the try on and while still in the store ordered a 38 Steel with Milanese loop using the Apple…

I love Apple Pay. It is so easy and quick. I have used it regularly at: Whole Foods Walgreens Home Depot Jamba Juice Vending Machines (not sure which company) Game Star Panera McDonalds (not drive through) Firehouse Subs I also have used it in my…

I have had problems with regular cards too. Just in the past month: Debit card got compromised and had to cancel & get a new card plus dispute charges. Had a card reader at a merchant not able to read magnetic field. Had a merchant's ability…

I know it is completely anecdotal but: We have two sixes and one six+. All three are working fine with our (piece of crap) MyFordTouch/SYNC - and mine works fine with my third party device I use in my pickup truck. Worked fine with 8.0 and now wi…

The 5c is just a 5 with a colorful shell. So right now all the people who already have a 5 (most likely less than a year old 5) wouldn't be interested in the 5c really unless they really really wanted color. The fact that the "middle" tier of iP…

I loathe GameCenter and Find My Friends. Some skeumorphism is OK, but those interfaces are so out of band that it is annoying. Skeumorphism needs to make sense. It shouldn't be there just because. Why the hell does Find my Friends need to be bou…

I read one book with iBooks on my iPhone, and went right back to the Kindle App. iBooks is slow and laggy, iBooks takes too many clicks to change from day to night text, and iBooks won't let me lock orientation in the app - instead it uses the syst…

After updating, I wish I could downgrade our two devices to 5. iOS 6 is buggy as hell. I would wait for 6.01 if I were you...

Quote: Bike routes for what? They're kind of limited in New England. There are "bike paths" here. Mostly they're just old railroad tracks that have been paved over. Everyone knows where they start, end, and what's along the route so maybe …

Quote: Hopefully Apple can bring some class to this part of town because right now it is rather shabby in my opinion. Do you think you could convince some property owners of that? Because I would really love a nice condo downtown…

Quote: Sorry to be so critical. I was there for 10 days and stayed at the Hilton a block from the proposed Apple store location, however riding the Max to and from the Convention Center everyday as well as to and from the airport, I was …

Quote: 23rd St. is not "downtown Portland". It's a highly over-congested commercial stretch on a narrow street in a residential neighborhood. The hubristic Portland government has designated this area as prime for "in-fill" commercial de…

I can't believe people are worried about this. There will be a Google Maps app, and you will be welcome to use it if you would like. Apple cannot deny Google Maps, or they will be investigated again for anti-trust issues. That is why we have a …

Do you guys realize there are *5* trackers on this AppleInsider page we are currently reading? (Well, those of you who use Ghostery may - but other users probably do not) What we need is for Apple to _allow_ apps like Ghostery or AdBlo…
