Google Maps has public transportation directions (I live in NYC), I don't believe Apple Maps does that.
it's there just not activated yet. it seems that it will use external apps with in the map app, which really excites me as i feel that's the start of some really great cross app apis
It's a YouTube app, it shows the YouTube logo.
A manky old retro TV? Didn't go and was around way too long.
If the iOS 5 trick to change third party app icons without jail breaking hasn't been closed on iOS 6 then you can change it back provided you find the icon image online.

Use the link in the story to open the App Store.
A search for YouTube doesn't yet find the app.
Had to download it from the US Store, not available in Germany yet. Looks nice, but I'm missing a few features:
- Turn HD on/off
- Play music in the background
- Choose country settings
It does have Airplay controls.

It's already available. It's called Google Earth. (I believe Google will just update Google Earth to support maps as well, instead of separate app)
I despise ads, and they’ll make me use YouTube just a little less. But I do think they’re fair game. YouTube isn’t free to run.
Ads aside, this seems good for Apple, Google AND users. I look forward to having a transit app as soon as Google will give it to me! Two maps apps, best of both worlds. I’ll use Apple’s app the most, but Google Transit (in my city) is highly useful. Street view too sometimes.

Dang...fall asleep on the couch and wake up with a very much improved YouTube app 6 hours later.
Into the 'Default' Apps the old YouTube app goes...
This new YouTube app is terrific and I've only used it for 1 search. Much more precise and easy to use.

(pessimistic post) sure it's alright now. But you wait. I give it 6 months before it's over-run by adds. Monetization (although necessary) will ruin this app.
