Anecdotal I know, but I have a chum - a big, big Apple fan - who has so far refused to upgrade to iOS 6 because of the maps issues. He also expected to buy the iPhone 5, but when it arrived it just didn't seem worth it. He's even given my SGS III appreciative looks. All this stuff is cumulative. Apple sales won't collapse overnight, but it is eating away at goodwill.
- GVIrish 14y agoI'm in exactly that boat. I was planning on buying the iPhone 5 but when I heard about the maps problem it stopped me cold. I depend on Google Maps now for a lot of things like finding metro stops not to mention that I also use it when traveling abroad. I'm at the point where I'm seriously considering going the Android route, especially since I think Google's OS and services are improving much more rapidly than Apple's.
