Shows how big a pain it is to deal with Apple, and it’s monopoly tendencies – Ap Store + Jail. Show how dumb Apple is – neither hardware nor locked-in services are of any use if open services can not ne used.

Myself, and I rarely think anything like this, but when I do, I am fast to tell people, even the mourners – I’m glad Jobs is dead.

Apple’s Maps mess will take a while to go away. It will be interesting to see what iPad Mini brings to tablet industry next month. http://bit.ly/QFAqP4

I personally don’t see the point of upgrading to this. But just in case, this is just an FYI: the iZettle card reader won’t fit the iPhone 5. You will have to use an adapter which will be released in October. The mPowa card reader and others so far I have not known to have any issues with it.

People will just sit tight as Apple makes adjustments to Apple Maps. Remember when Google Maps had started out, it was less than perfect. And that was before this smartphone thing took off nearly 5 years aback.

Apple got rid of Google in a huff, but their expertise is difficult to replicate in one yearly cycle.
