    I notice that instead of Orange, I'm now being served by EverythingEverywhere (EE)

    Web pages seem to be loading a LOT quicker...

    Could that be objectively not true?

    Took about 10 mins download the update and 20 mins altogetehr to do, so why does it say EE on my phone instead of T-mobile now???

    Like IOS 6 (although its looking a bit tired now), but don't like the new maps.. Google maps with streetview was great

    Updated throught my phone. It worked really well. Didn't have to restore from a iCloud back up, everything was as it was right before the update.

    Maps look disappointing. Built in sat nav is handy but I already have the Tom Tom app which I can't fault.

    Maps is crap. The sat view isn't even in colour, although it is at least more up to date than the google one was. My street exists in it, whereas it didn't in the Goog one.

    EE, Tmobile, Orange... all one and the same.

    In fact as I type this, it switched back to 'Orange Tmobile'

    Was hoping the Satellite View of Derby would be a little less blocky when the official release of iOS6 come to the fore but alas it's not to be.

    Hoping Apple sort it soon.

    I think it doesn't silence calls from contacts you've marked as VIP.

    I made the mistake of syncing Facebook contacts and now everybody on my Facebook is in my contacts. I've tried deleting them but it doesn't work aaaaaahh

    Other than that I like it

    Can't believe how quick it was to download and update

    But so far it's a bit meh! I like the Do Not Disturb feature and the maps, but overall there's nothing that makes me want to upgrade to an iphone 5

    I bought my 4s sim free, so will probably flog it in a few months when there's some more phones out there to choose from, it's looking likely i'll move from o2 to EE so will be interested in the lumia 920 and S3 LTE version

    If you're missing Google Maps. Just open up Safari and go to http://maps.google.com and it will automatically offer to put a shortcut on your home screen (web app).

    oh and still peed off that you can't write a new email and attach a photo, you have to go into the photo first and then email

    I just hope that in ios6 when downloading something in the app store, when going back to the app store it remembers your position rather than going back to the top of the category you were downloading from

    that got on my tit end

    3D maps of London is very cool. Try going to the O2 or Canary Wharf. Great use of Multitouch. Losing Street View is pretty sad though - hopefully there'll be a Google Maps app soon.

    Finding the new iTunes/App Store Apps a little sluggish - that's on an iPad 3. Like their new design though.

    Only thing I really want is Do Not Disturb - downloading to my iPhone now :)
