I myself rarely use google map for navigation. My trusted Navigon app get me where I need to go up to the step of my destination. I will see how apple new map is compared to Navigon. Google map is not bad but I just don’t like to be tracked every step of th way.

I have heard a few people now mention that Apple is missing Google’s Street View; however, I have found Street View inaccurate or outdated most of the time I’ve tried to use it. Plus, often Google doesn’t put you down in front of the address you are looking for, but at an intersection, leaving you to guess which building is actually the one you want. I frankly don’t use it much at all.

“People have always had lofty expectations for the iPhone 5, especially as the competition stiffens.”

That stiffening is otherwise known as rigor mortis.

I think it’s only due diligence to compare the reviewed device to it’s main competitor. Just as most reviews of Windows or Android devices mention the iOS ones.

Oddly, it seems Mr. Baig was contractually obligated to mention the Samsung Galaxy S III (TM) in glowing terms at least three times in his review.

IIt was the specificity of his mentions that made them seem forced.
