Im hearing all these people say "Apple copied that", no "Android copied this..." as Picasso said and was quoted from Jobs "Good artists copy, great artists steal"

It seems like its getting more and more obvious each year that iOS sucks. Most of the 'new' features are either already present on other phones or useless. FaceTime over data would prolly get the same result as other video-calling smartphone- sucky, blurry quality. Face it iFans Apple is losing to Android/Samsung. That's why Apple keeps suing Samsung and everyone. GALAXY S III is far more superior than iDevice can ever be. Oh, even S2 is much much better.

ios is too far behind Symbian that employed "reply with sms" 4years before in Nokia handset. How can it be a smartphone? smart should serve all the needs of users with no limitations. However, let see how smart is ios6

I agree with the common thread, the iOS is boring at this point and lacks any innovation whatsoever. The limitations of the OS are starting to surface as the other platforms continue to improve exponentially. There's only so long you can go without having basic functions.

AnonD-44744, 12 Jun 2012why is there no wifi direct, bluetooth or nfc? iPhone has n... moreIt will have NFC most likely in the next version, don't frett, SGS3 only just got it as well.
iPhone was a project initiated by Cingular/AT&T and therefor you will find these Bluetooth and WiFi restrictions until all carriers agree to open them up. It's not Apple that is not allowing it. Same with FaceTime - AT&T restricted the use of it up until now where they could handle this functionality over 3G/4G.
I remember back in the days when Vodafone implemented the same restrictions on their devices, it's definitely not the manufacturer.

Apple has just announced the next version of its iOS platform for the iPhone, iPod Touch and the iPad - iOS 6
The iOS 6 brings the long-awaited Facebook integration – Android already has it
The next new feature is Reply with Message when you can’t answer a call - Android already has it
The iOS 6 brings a new Do Not Disturb mode, which mutes all push notification, incomming calls and prevents the screen from lighting up, so it doesn't disturb your sleep or hard work. Android already has it Smart action
The next new feature is VIP contacts. You mark a contact as VIP and all the messages you get from that contact will be highlighted, so you'd know to check them out first – Android has it

Well guess what it looks Apple copied this Facebook integration, Maps and Siri open applications from Android. They started this from iOs5 copying the notification bar and claim its theirs and now copy even more. They should be the one getting sued!

anD apple will patent all of them, as usual.
And they will sue every phone which has facebook integration, reject call with message, etc.
