    I haven't had a problem with the new Maps app yet.

    Here's some more schadenfreude for the pile-on:

    Yet another scolding criticism of the maps in IOS6. Spot on point and sound logic from a charming and obviously knowledgeable source I like duly noted.

    Apple products used to be overpriced, and they were not worth it. Nowadays, you pay more and you get high quality products that are simple to use.

    I stand firm that Apple computers >>>>
    ....But that line stops when it comes to phones.

    I know people who never owned an iphone in their life, but when they bought the iphone 5 they had this weird uppity-bounce swagger/pride to them before they even opened the box. Silly kids.

    This is such a weird phenomenon to me. Do people really judge other people based on what kind of phone they have?

    It's a PHONE. Who cares?

    Yeah, because the constant belittling by Android fanboys is such a better look.

    Douchebags whose self-esteem is apparently wrapped up in consumer electronics and corporate branding for $500 Alex.

    People with weird and poor values.

    I find it funny that people will say, droid/apple users are a X, where X is some derogatory term. Yet, the fact that they are basing that off what kind of phone makes them a loser, tool, douche, dingleberry and/or whatever else you want to throw in there.

    i don't mind being a douche, most of my friends and family are since they use apple products. also, most artists and musicians are royal douche bags, but we already knew that. designers are probably the biggest dbags of all. i mean, can you believe they find beauty in simplicity? all the cool people want their devices to be little fetishistic extentions of their need to masturbate. customizing your phone so that it is unique is the key to cool.

    This was pretty funny, aside from the annoying soundtrack.
