I would like to add that Apple also got rid of the driving force behind iOS. This dismissal should help to return iOS to its former glory, not that much is particularly disappointing (aside from Maps for many users). The previous director reportedly did not work well with others, was not the best man for the job, and even refused to sign his name to Apple's formal apology over Maps last year. So, I'd wait for iOS7 to start putting the platform down; see if Apple doesn't surprise you with its next major update. On Feb 15, 2013, at 6:56 PM, Rod Skene <skene...@gmail.com> wrote:
