    Why did you never update to IOS5 to make use of iMessage etc and Jailbreak again?

    Because I'm just that lazy ;)
    It didn't look like it was worth the bother :)

    Maps are crap ok but I'd imagine/hope they should improve pretty soon..


  • Registered Users Posts: 661 ✭✭✭thewing


    In fairness, this is one of the smoothest update rollouts yet....


  • Registered Users Posts: 116 ✭✭melikebanana


    Maps are pretty bad alright. I think safari is a good bit faster to load pages on my iPhone 4 though.

    App Store is a lot better

    Think I'll leave off upgrading for the time being, at least until the Google maps app is on the marketplace.

    Maps seem to have the street names okay in cork city from just a quick glance. the detail is awful but hopefully that will change.

    Maps are crap yes....but I like the look of it and I'm sure the content will improve.

    App store great update, looks slicker and doesn't kick you out like I said earlier.

    Siri....seems to have local Irish stuff.

    Also jokes have been updated. "Open the Pod Bay Doors" has new answers.

    I think the whole os is a bit smoother too, swiping between screens etc. overall I'm happy with it.

    My first time using Siri.... i'm impressed. Picking up so much of what I say. And I love the funny answers. But it posts to FB, and searches locally.

    Here's a handy list of things to ask Siri for new users like myself. I even asked how's Man U doing and it gave an answer.

    BTW the Maps experience on my iPhone 4 and iPad 3 is completely different. The iPad actually isnt that bad compared. The 3D works, and the images are so much more clear the the iPhone 4. Maybe the iPhone 4S or even the 5 will have better images. The data itself is different too. My home being newly built the iPhone shows a construction site... iPad more up to date than Google Maps was. Including 3D, the iPad Maps app is an improvement in some ways. (iPad 2 could differ.

    Do you believe in God

    Siri: Humans have religion, I just have silcon.:D


  • Registered Users Posts: 39,440 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    Tried out the Siri and the facebook and twitter posting feature and it understood me perfectly.

    Will hold off until there's a verified untethered jailbreak without bugs.

    For some reason I understood it to mean they would work in the US. Don't know why.

    Maybe you're confused with some localised services being only in US, UK etc.

    Still surprised that there are lots of Irish services on Siri now. Big improvement. They must be working on full Irish support

    vodafone 3G signal gone very poor after the upgrade, normally have 3 - 4 bars, now only one, could be another issue,


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,200 ✭✭✭G-Money


    Anyone tried it on a 3GS yet?

    I must of assumed that alright. Siri can find chinese takeaways in cork.

    Why no Siri for ipad 2?

    Serious bull****, absolutely no reason for it not to be included


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,391 ✭✭✭✭murpho999

    Bloody hard.....like a game/skill test!

    I have it down on the 4, it seems to be slicker and safari seems quicker, App Store better but maps crap but I'm sure that will improve..

    Tis each to their own. Some will say yes, some will say no.

    Most are not using it long enough to give an educated answer.

    Tried earlier. The gardai could use it as a sobriety test.

    SLOW DOWN.
