I agree. But also: > Maps is likely to improve, and fast. This is going to be the real test for Apple. They need to fix stuff, they know that, it will be interesting to see when improvements will be noticible. Cook spoke of 500 million searches in two weeks. If only 1 promille triggered a feedback or "report problem", that would be 500.000 change requests. How can you brute-force this massive amount of data?

>I agree A quick Google search will tell you that there are non-trivial problems all over the world in major cities at major landmarks with Apple maps. It's nice that you agree with the parent poster that Apple Maps are fantastic, but let me say that I don't think so. There are far too many obvious and MAJOR cockups (eg. Hong Kong is misplaced - it's not even on the island, Tokyo's main railway is missing, etc.) ... but you think that's Fantastic?? I will point you to Garmin and TomTom as two examples of maps that FAR exceed Apple's "fantastic" offering. In 6 months time, the landscape will (hopefully) be different ... but to call this offering fantastic is ignorant.
