Load up the Patrols and go on an Apple mystery tour :)

Google has just released a new map app which should help out.

IPhone for those that are sheep, stupid, or pretentious wankers. Android rocks no limitations

Baaaaa! Baaaaa! But in all seriousness - you think Android has no limitations? Horses for courses. I have a team of guys who do app development on both and have die-hards in both camps. Holden versus Ford I think!

Just a few reasons why I don't have an iPhone is slave labour with atrocious working conditions, my old 3gs is no different to 5, you spend money for apps that you can't transfure to to another phone unlike android where if I have a HTC I can transfure to Samsung also don't tell me there is better apps on iPhone with all there restrictions.

And that's my 2c also I'm using a Nokia lumia 920 so far the best phone I've used to date including my galaxy s3

That is why Apple shares are plummeting down, around 30% lower since release of IOS6. Steve Jobs will be turning in his grave hearing all this!

Think about the business strategy for the company, they bring out iPhone change format from mp3 consumer buys songs, apps, games spends a heap and they are stuck with apple so if they buy another brand eg: HTC Samsung Nokia the consumer will Loose potentially hundreds of dollars worth of programs that is useless to other brands.

Apple ads are subconscious to consumers, they "leak" a product on the internet to give a taste to consumers and make them wait and to place pre purchase orders.

Didn't Apple change the connector on their own product? What were they thinking! Millions of people had accessories for their phones but now they need an adaptor to use them.

I love my android as I can change phone brands and still run the same platform

I got the new Iphone when It came out, bought a adaptor for $25 for the Docking station. Beside's that it works on all my accessories I bought when I got the 1st Gen Iphone. Its a Different connector into the phone beside that it has a usb Port which fits into any thing with one.

The only People that have issues with Iphones and small little things like this are people that don't like Apple Products.

I dont like android, but if that works for you great. There is No need complaining about a Product that you don't have or use.

At the end of the day for me, My Iphone works great and makes me money and I have never had a glitch. I couldn't live with out my Iphone.....

Both phones do pretty much the same thing, lets you talk,lets you take photo's, lets you write post on tis forum, lets you check the interent, lets you shop online list goes on. Best of all, lets you not get lost in the Bush with Map app's.....
Win Win for all of us...But at the end of the day you have to thank Apple for all of this..

I like the apple products, as a whole theyre bloody good machines. I just don't the limitations of the products, such as memory, ports, and my biggest bugbear ITunes, so I use android...................anyway its now the turn of Windows to shine with Windows 8, Android will probably adapt quickly but Apple will struggle, it all goes round in cycles.
