Re: [iPad] Comment to Apple, Inc.

 

There's a few hacks out for Android that will allow you to sync with iCloud and such but do you really want to go to that hassle? I'm doing fine with my iPad Retina and iOS 6. Maps? Check the App Store under Featured and you'll see Find Maps For Your iPad.  That brings up quite a few map apps that work well.

Agree!!
 
You can use Apple Maps, and it has turn by turn and voice. You can also use Google Maps by going to the site and adding it to your homescreen, so nothing is actualy lost.
 
YouTube. You still have YouTube, just need to add the new YouTube app, written by Google. It doesn't really matter that its not a default app with iOS, it is quick and free to add if you wish to have it.
 
If you move to Android, you will need to forego integration with your devices and iTunes. And lose iTunes as your one stop management hub, for syncing and backup. Change your Android device for another, be prepared to set it up again manually. Or be prepared to Google a lot to try and cobble together a level of integration, sync, and backup, that you aready have

Oh come on Ed... one app and you abandon ship?

Google is working on their app for iOS6, plus there are all the other apps that were available before all this hit the fan.

Besides, if you go to Android, you'll have to start all over again with your apps, accessories, etc, just to get into their eco-system.

Apple, all the while, is diligently working on their app to try and perfect it.  Talk about throwing the baby out with the bathwater... whew!

For some months I have been planning on purchasing a new iPad for my wife this coming December.   I had been looking forward to it for most of this year..  However,  after the debacle of iOS6 and particularly the maps issue,  I am now strongly considering going with Android.   It remains to be seen if Apple can fix and improve things before my purchase decision if finalized.  I expect updates to my iPad2 will keep me informed on whether or not this occurs.
