Apple: The only brand where people complain about features and keep buying the same brand.
It's just a button, man.
A kid at work was going on about how he needed the iphone 5 because the battery in his old one no longer needed a charge. It's just interesting that a company can design a product where you pretty much have to replace the unit in order to change the battery and people keep coming back.
I don't have any problem with that - I guess if I did, I'd buy a different phone.

No need to worry. There's really no issue with replacing a battery in an iPhone. In fact, I've seen the fine folks at the Apple store do it for free when they were not required to do so. You can find diy kits online, as well.

Yeah, to be fair I know nothing about the battery issue firsthand.
But with that said, it's kind of annoying that you'd need to look up a do it yourself kit on the internet to change a battery.

On the flipside, if you're like me and don't mind staying a generation or two behind the curve, apple makes it very easy to upgrade. I got the 3s for 99 cents when the 4s came out, and I'll be getting the 4s fo' free when a family member buys the 5 this week.

Apple really took a shit with this new maps app. I put IOS 6 on my ipad as my 4s is jail broke and I won't be upgrading for a while on that. I tried to a test just mapping it to a local dominos on my ipad. It didn't know what Dominos pizza was or if it even existed.

No one should know what Dominos Pizza is, IOS 6 included!
I got mine yesterday. They gave me more than enough for my 4s where it didn't cost anything. 4G, the new display, and screen size are all really good upgrades. The A6 is quite noticeable, too. My thumb barely has to wait for the processor anymore.

Welp, apple maps led me to the employee/maintenance entrance to the SLC airport. Then tried to send me to Las Vegas instead of Vail. Awesome!
I would use Google maps or waze until it's straightened out, pal.
I had absolutely not problem with it until this morning. I live in rural areas so it doesnt always need to be exact. i took the wrong exit for the airport so quickly brought up maps to guide me from my new location.....brought me to the employee entrance... so my friend brought up his mapping program on his Android and it directed us right to the terminal.
I gave it one more shot shortly after that to see how she could respond and I noticed she was sending me eastbound to Vegas.
I quickly downloaded waze. Jobs: you ignorant slut.
