M1's 3GB plan or you grandfathered the 12GB one? Sucks that all our local telcos removed the 12GB plan

3GB one ... I don't think you can get 12g on LTE even if you fight

I still think there will be a beta 4 that will bring some feature for real.

But if you remember 5.1 had no significant features either, you're living in the past when Apple rolled out new features, during the iOS 4 era. With iOS 5 onwards Apple is trying to bring out new features YEARLY, just like with OS X, 6.1 will most likely be the last update maybe 6.1.x or 6.x until we get NEW features in iOS 7. Same with OS X no new features till 10.9

Not sure the exchange push is fixed..... have a look:

Don't know about Exchange but iCloud email is definitely fixed for push and sync across devices ...

Those on iCloud email would be happy about this. We all know that at this time the real time sync does not work like Exchange which means that if you read or delete your email on one device the other does not reflect this until you actually open the mail app on the other as well.

Seems like now the idle imap command is properly working as in the changes reflect in a few seconds across devices without any manual opening of the mail app. I am so happy !!

Someone test Safari browser benchmarks with the beta and see if they ACTUALLY made the browser faster, not just "safari feels snappier"

Safari comments are getting old
Plus, not many even use that browser anymore. Too many superior alternatives out there.

I bet the majority still use Safari. It is impossible to make a great alternative with all Apples road blocks.

I sure hope this makes the GM for 6.1 because its annoying to not have all devices updates in real time.

I didn't say just safari. I ment the phone in general. Not surfing.
