iOS 6.0, another way Apple is screwing its users over...

I have no problems with the features that will be appearing in the upcoming iOS 6.0. I have been an Apple user since iPhone 3GS. Ever since then, I got an iPhone 4 each for my wife, my mum and myself. I've also just recently bought the iPad 3 and migrated from a Windows PC to a Macbook Pro. 

When Siri came to iPhone 4S, I thought well, maybe the iPhone 4 really will lag if Siri was used on it, so that's why Apple don't want it in there. Fine. But then iOS 6.0 came along and in comes a feature already available to Android phones for ages, the turn-by-turn navigation, I was excited. I then later found out on Apple's website that this turn-by-turn (now on referred to as TBT) is only available for iPhone 4s and beyond! My expression at that moment was one of someone who just accidentally stepped on some sh*t! How could Apple do that to their iPhone 4 users??

New iPad (iPad 3) WiFi only model has no REAL GPS

I recently went on a short vacation and brought my iPad 3 along. I rented a car and wanted to use my iPad 3 with the Tomtom navigation app to help with going around the place. To my horror, the Tomtom just kept telling me "Poor GPS reception"! I first wondered whether it was because of the recent jailbreak Absinthe 2.0 that have broke my GPS somehow. So I started researching whether anyone else had the same problem...

Hanoi (Vietnam) internet access

I'm back from the Hanoi trip and as promised I'm upating my experience of obtaining internet access on my iPhone. The first thing upon arriving there, I asked our tour guide which telco offers the best prepaid packages that has data usage included. I made a point of telling her my main usage is for data and not for phone calls. She told me not to purchase any prepaid sims because our hotel will have free wifi.

More after the break...
