New Apple Lust Objects for 2010 and onward

messages was down for a day or so last week, and has some shocking delays sometimes.

they even fucked up email

I still use lolsparrow :/

apple n google should just merge, for the good of humanity

did you guys know that apple has a magic web page on apple.com, and when it's not available no iOS users can use wifi

ok reading this and yeah, apple is cooked, there's just no way they can match this

Ha, Google themselves haven't updated yet:

http://www.google.com/mobile/iphone/

Go down to the link to Google Maps and click.

yeah, that web page was down for 30 minutes last night and casued chaos

Night of the fight, you may feel a slight sting. That's pride fucking with you.

tom tom have been pretty vocally distancing themselves from apple maps in the UK

i bet they took it down when they were moving stuff around. Apple is shocking at keeping old links working.

Was going to say, I have no problem with that world actually existing so long as I didn't have to get around in it.

*stunned*

it is kind of jarring scrolling through a long-ass article and seeing all the restaurants and maps being things in my neighborhood

has apple ever had a successful server-side service? ever? apart from the stores, I guess.

AppleLink. Until it was replaced by eWorld

yeah these maps certainly are "dramatically" better than the old ones, thanks for the review guys

anyway, fuck complaining about maps, we got NEW EMOJIS people~

*starts furiously rewriting all my saved notes*

I would have posted more to this thread but I've been stunned by maps

YAY GAYMOJI!

brb, just quickly looking for the new google maps app

only 285 side-swipes to go

the bad:
- everything everyone has mentioned upthread
- the wtf colour-matched top bar thing that goes an insipid aqua most of the time

the good:
- pinyin input (if you type 'nhm' you get '你好吗' (this is hugely time-saving))

how to get to melbourne airport:

1. drive nw along calder freeway
2. turn right where there is not a road
3. drive THROUGH SOME FARMS AND ALONG A FUCKING AIRFIELD TARMAC

this thing is terrible

i decided to test it on the following route today:

1) drive two blocks down my street
2) turn right, drive straight 1.6 miles

i set it to figure out the route as i was pulling out the driveway, by the time i got there it had worked long enough to tell me that it couldn't figure it out

i'm going to plug this thing into my mac and restore ios5

after 24 hrs of use i have yet to find a new feature or change that is not obnoxious

apple to sue clouds

cloud computing

I found one feature I really love: reading list syncs while safari isn't running. I bookmark pages on my mac and the full page is on my phone when I get on the tube

I know it's been covered to death itt but the whole design ethic of this release is just

apple gets as close to apologising as apple ever gets

aaaand apple stole its new ipad clock from the swiss

what else? besides the phone message/leave me alone mode i havent noticed much

numeric keypad FUCKING SUCKS NOW

or did i just pick the wrong skin for it

dorks are everywhere queuing for this omgomg new device, and mine was delivered here nearly an hour ago. didn't have to get off my arse.

they can also just go to one of the many non apple store that offer them where there is never a line

there's lines everywhere here, apparently

are/were, idk maybe they all sold out and the streets are full of weeping neckbeards
