While you're at it, complain about the STUPID fade in animation when you turn the phone on.

Updated a few of my devices and so far the only issue I have (which is a rather pressing one) is the fact that my bloody folders on my iPad are all now 3x3.
Seriously? So much wasted real estate. I know its to give the feeling of "zooming in" into the folder but 9 icons on a ~10 inch screen is outright idiotic and inefficient use of space.
The new launcher bar is a nice touch, quick access to BT/Plane/Sleep etc etc is very handy. Photos app is much improved and finally Newsstand can be placed in my "usless shit" folder.

If you have anything older than iphone 5 or ipad 3, you will want to go to Settings > Accessibility > Reduce Motion and enable that setting. It gets rid of the effect where icons wobble when you move the phone around.
I disabled it on the iphone 5 anyway because not only does it waste resources and battery, it actually looks really stupid.

I've been hesitant to update my 4S to iOS7 because my iPad 1G is completely crippled due to it being upgraded to iOS 5.1.1 to the point where it is so slow it is simply not usable.
A few friends of mine have been using the 4S updated with iOS7 without any issues whatsoever though, and I did have a chance to use a 4S on iOS7 and it feels no different from iOS6 in terms of speed (and according to online reviews, though there have been notes on keyboard and lockscreen lag in very rare cases).
Thing is, my iPhone is locked to Rogers but I'm using a Gevey SIM and using it with Fido. I'll have to purchase a Gevey Ultra S to have it work with Fido...
Anyone with connections that can unlock my phone for cheaper than Rogers charges ($50)

So it's being reported that iOS 7 employs multipath TCP. Apple iOS 7 surprises as first with new multipath TCP connections - Network World
Apparently only being used with Siri right now, but hopefully they'll expand it to include the rest of iOS and third party Apps.

Should just have a friend call Rogers for you to get it unlocked. If it's been used on the Rogers network for at least 3 months then it should be good to be unlocked. Quote:

Pro-tip. To close apps, you can use 3 fingers and close 3 at a time.

Can't wait to see the iPhone6. Probably a good chance a larger screen will be available.

I am not referring to the new sounds... I am referring to the same sounds that I had set now sound different. Email sounds tinny, music doesn't seem to go as loud and the new tones all seem pretty quiet. Even the lock sound seems different to me.

They got remastered. Whatever that means.
