Well iOS6 sounds like a dud for me and my iPhone4.
The only feature I see as a benefit for me then is the DND

I missed it but can someone explain the VIP mailboxes?
 
iOS 6 sucks for everybody but those of us who will vote with our wallets and buy phones with ICS:)
 
A lot of people currently with the iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4 still won't be effected because I'm sure a good portion of them will be upgrading to the iPhone 5.

Already it's changed (and it hasn't gotten better):

Plenty will have iPhone 4 for a while. Not everyone's contract is on the release schedule.

I'm due for an upgrade in August (I have the iPhone 4) and I'm holding off for a few months just so I can get the iPhone 5! Really looking forward to see how well turn by turn works on a friend's 4S, especially since I need to get a new GPS soon anyway. Maybe I can look forward to just investing in a car mount for an iPhone instead!
 
Hello,

I just installed iOS 6 on my iPhone 4s. I had siri disable before I started and now, after restore from backup, there's no siri.
I can't find anywhere in Settings how to enable siri. I know how to enable siri in iOS 5 but it's not the same on my iPhone now...
Is it because of the region I live in or I'm just stupid and can't find the damn switch?

Thank you!

You could try to reset all settings but if that doesn't work Try downgrading to iOS 5.1.1 and restoring your Recent backup that was made on 5.1.1 and Enable Siri then back it up again and Install iOS 6 again.
Hope it works!
 
Every time I try to make a phone call on my iPad it doesn't work and yet it even even works on an iPhone 3. :confused:
