I'm going to hold off downloading for a bit. I want to see how the bugs play out.

So far I'm digging IOS6... Not sure what the issue is with the maps... Seems to work fine...

My "5" is being held at a fedex store in Portland. (since I can't be home to sign for it) Looking forward to picking it up tonight.

I have no problem with someone liking a Blackberry or Android better but if you are an Apple user and have an Apple computer/laptop or AppleTV, an iPhone just makes sense. When everything integrates so easy and seamless where I keep all my bookmarks and e-mail syncing, why wouldn't I want an iPhone. Yes, I ordered mine last Friday and should have it today. I am on a regular 2 year cycle, Tricia is on the "S" two year cycle.

I ordered ours minutes apart...they shipped a day apart. They're both in the lower 48 now...no ETA on UPS....but the Apple e-mail said Thrursday and Friday. We shall see.

A co-worker had the 5 delivered to the office Friday. I took a look at it. She had a 4 or 4s. The thing is light! When you hold the 4/4s and the 5, you can really feel the difference. The new screen size great; it's bigger...but not phablet bigger. It's pretty zippy too.

Got them both yesterday...despite shipping a day apart. Sweet phone! I like it a lot so far. I don't see what all the hubbub is over maps...works fine for me and even did some turn by turn yesterday. It's light! Really light. Screen size is really nice too. It moves along well between apps and on the web. I'm on the sorta, but not really 4G at work and get about 4.5megs down...1.25megs up. So that's pretty solid. Can't wait to see what it'll do on LTE. I'm sure that's a data burner. Phone calls very clear and I actually used the surf n' talk.
