Dave, I'm quite prepared to be wrong, but it seems to me that the time the notification stays on is shorter in ios6 than it was in 5 or 4. Cheers Alex

When you get a notification and your screen is locked, the unlock screen pops up displaying the notification(s) which have come in since the last time you locked your phone. This screen remains on for a short time (20 or 30 seconds). This has been the case since I purchased my iPhone 4 in September 2010 and has not changed. If the screen locks whilst you are reading the notification, just press the sleep/wake button on the top of the phone, or press the home button to bring the unlock screen back up. What people appear to be asking for is that the screen not lock while they are checking their notifications. It sounds like a good idea, but consider that people desire the battery to last as long as possible. Whenever the screen is active, the battery is draining more rapidly. If one receives a long notification and the screen does not lock until VO is finished speaking, this means your screen will be active that much longer. If you want to spend time reading through the notifications, unlock your iDevice and spend the time in the notification centre.

So does this option not exist anymore as everyone says their screen locks when they are listening to their notifications. I'm sorry if I'm dum but it's difficult to know what people are talking about if you don't have a device in front of you.
