my acura gps feels like 1985 compared to One X Gps. funny shit

Yep, and the fact that the maps get updated regularly. On a stand alone GPS you either have to buy the maps or pay more for a lifetime map version.

Ah yes, another great point. Been so long that I used a stand alone gps that I forgot about that hassle.

thing i hate about the tomtom or garmin is it takes 5 times as long to find the sats when you start it up compared to the phone.

putting apple on the spot. love it.

Google has an iOS 6 Maps app awaiting approval. It is solely up to Apple to approve. | 9to5Mac

Yeah, I really like the turn by turn on the HTC. Although if I'm going to a new city, I usually prefer my Tomtom that I can stick on the windshield. It has a large 5" display and yells out instructions as loud as can be lol...

That's actually kind of big for me. I use the driving directions quite a bit.

Then you need to switch. Droid has had turn-by-turn for years, and it is excellent. It is going to take some time for apple to iron out the problems with their map application.

On to passbook, or whatever it is called. Really looks like a great app, but it will require 3rd parties to participate for it to be worth a shit. Just like NFC, passbook needs others to make it successful.

lol @ leaving google maps. bad decision after bad decision.


"The new map app for iOS 6 is a whole lot of fun -- unless you want to use it for directions. Or to find a bridge that looks crossable."

serious what do you notice? its faster or something?

the hardware is different, the software is different, the size is different, the os is different. its like saying whats the difference between an apple computer and a windows computer. they use different way of going about the same thing. you have to try both to know what you like. i am a windows/android guy, dont like the apple os on a computer or a phone.

[ROCKETW19]

yea absolutely you can tell the difference. i promise you this, if you were forced to use a One X or S3 for a month and then given back your iphone there are many things you would miss about the one x or s3.

i miss 1 thing about the iphone. imessage. much better then basic text. i can admit that. adroid needs to off its own imessage.

[Bouncer]

on paper I am sure alot of things are better but can you really tell? how much faster is you phone? .2 .3 seconds can you really tell that difference? if you can would you care? you dont like apple never did that is fine but to switch from a product you like cuz you think one is better is silly.

you are right though I know zero about either phone actually but I bet I couldnt tell the difference anyways.

on paper sust drops like a mofo at the end of week you couldnt tell but i know for a fact that it does by studies and actuall blood work. that is what I am talking about can you really tell. and if you can would you care? I wouldnt care enough to switch but thats me.
