			<description><![CDATA[The build quality vs specs vs price proposition on many of these Chinese phones vs the iphone 5 is outrageous! Apple has a very large gap to fill to come close to matching them, and the only way to do it is to start chopping those margins! At the same time, Android 4.2 makes iOS 6 look like Windows 95. They are not even in the same generation of software. Faulty Apple maps 'half-fixed' after iOS 6 system is luring motorists ... www.news.com.au/.../apples...ios-6-maps.../story-e6frfro0-122... 2 hours ago – APPLE's trouble-plagued Maps app that has been stranding people in the ... of its iOS 6 system that has misdirected travellers looking for Mildura into the ... park and temperatures can reach as high as 46 degrees, putting lives at risk..... If this is indeed the military's next big idea, we may start thinking about ... Local police have been called to assist distressed motorists who have become stranded within the Murray-Sunset National Park after following directions on their iPhones. Police are extremely concerned as there is no water supply within the park and temperatures can reach as high as 46 degrees, putting lives at risk. Inspector Simon Clemence said it took one man 24-hours to make contact with the outside world after following the application's directions. "One guy got far enough in to lose phone coverage and he was stuck there and he got bogged and he had to walk out and it took him 24-hours to get to a point where he had phone coverage and then we came and rescued him," he said. "This is a direct result of this map application." Police have confirmed five vehicles have become stranded in the park, with many more people presumed to have become lost but found there way back to civilisation. "We know there are others because we set up a breath testing station on the road there recently and we had a woman who said every left hand turn up the Mallee Highway her application was trying to send her straight into the dirt," Insp Clemence said. "This is just the tip of the iceberg."

Richard Williamson, who oversaw Maps in iOS 6, was let go by ... That might be acceptable for an Android device, but not for any Apple ... I livein a midsize US city (one without any 3D?fun but unnecessary to me). Of course, they want to fire the maps chief who they probably put under the gun to have a prodcut (any product) ready by deadline versus firing the geniuses who thought they could take on one of Google's core (labor intensive, IP intensive, resource intensive) properties from scratch by buying a start up! I understand why Apple did what it did, but as usual they have woefully underestimated both the difficulty in and the importance of, the cloud and Googles dominance therein.]]></description>
