Lolhaha, 21 Sep 2012Yes they would let u wait outside for 8days. Cos no one wants to buy their product. Lol So... moreApple caters to such fanboys who would rather stand in line for hours than order it online and have it delivered to their doorstep.

            Just finished watching an episode of The Simpsons on Channel 4+1 and ended with a scene in the future showing iPods taking over the world and whipping people for no reason.
            And I just thought it was funny because I genuinely believe Apple is bent on world domination.

So for flyover I could use Apple maps, but if I wanted Street View I will use Google Maps.

                                  The difference now is that iPhone users will have a choice and not be forced to use Google Maps as default like before.

                                    Apples iPhone 5 hasn't turned out to be the greatest of all on the first day of use for me(Australian customer)

                                    It has quite a few software issues
                                    1:being receiving other people's conversations

                                    2:if you are operating on the same iTunes account and you download an app it will install on the other iPhone 5,

                                    3: the passcode will not set even though it does say it has set in settings it still continues to unlock like normal with no pass code

                                    These are only a few of the issues my friends and I have faced today with the iPhone 5,

                                    Apple are starting to make me think they are shit!!,

                                        iOS 6 Maps is crowd sourced and will improve rapidly with millions of users.

                                        Just in case, here's how to add/suggest a location in iOS 6 maps:


                                        1. Launch Maps from the Home screen.
                                        2. Tap the page curl at the bottom right.
                                        3. Tap the text that says Report a Problem above the Print button, middle right.
                                        4. Tap location is missing.
                                        5. Tap Next.
                                        6. Drag the purple pin to the right location on the map.
                                        7. Enter the location information.
                                        8. Tap Send.
                                        9. Add any comments, if asked.
