So, I was just keen to see for how many the absence of Google maps in iOS 6 is a total dealbreaker.
For me it is. Actually I recently (before this whole iOS 6 debacle started) came to think of how often I do rely on the map in my 4S, and a maps app that isn't 100% reliable can potentially cost me a lot of time in a day. I rely on public transportation where I live and if I get off at the wrong stop or plan a connection incorrectly due to some map detail being off, this can cost me precisely the 30 minutes, one hour or whatever - that I don't have to spare.
I'm dying to try out the panorama feature in iOS 6, to see if my phone gets a little snappier and so on, but as long as I don't feel I can rely 100% on the maps, I feel I simply have to sacrifice those things. What about the rest of you? How many of you are even holding off on purchasing a new iOS product until there's a Google Maps app available?
