Don also mentioned iOS 6 which I am really looking forward to checking out when it’s available. I am a complete software junkie and whether it’s Mac or iOS, I love to be the first to try it out.
Some of the enhancements to iOS 6 include:
- Maps – uses a vector-based engine everything should look better; tilt and rotate; turn-by-turn navigation, local search, Siri, and Traffic.
- Siri – your friend will now open apps as well as answer questions about sports, movies and restaurants
- Facebook – is now integrated into the iOS. The integration means that you can now post directly from Maps, Photos, Music
- Safari – Off-line viewing with Reader and iCloud Tabs so you can start browsing on one device and pick up where you left off on another device.
- Passbook – a new e-ticking app
- Phone – includes smart reminders to remind you when you missed a call; Do Not Disturb; ability to message if you can’t take a call.
But my favorite enhancement…you won’t be asked to enter your password every time you want to download a free application!
iOS 6 supports iPhones from the 3GS onwards, the fourth generation iPod touch and the second and third generation iPad.
