iOS 6 – Upgrade or Downgrade (It's evolution rather than revolution)


I was eagerly waiting for iOS 6 upgrade on my iPhone. It has come just 3 days after new iPhone 5 release and I immediately upgraded (??) my iPhone 4S with iOS 6. I was about to write about it immediately after the up grade was done but decided against it. I decided to wait till I had gone through all the changes and new features of iOS 6. This is the one of the things that Apple talked about as their landmark success in this year. So is it a really landmark success for Apple? Can iOS 6 alone give Apple what they lack in iPhone 5? Is there any break through feature in iOS 6? Let’s discuss it in details.

My wife loves to listen to music in the kitchen while cooking. But she insists that we do not spend more money on buying another music system when we have plenty of gadgets that can do the job.  So I started thinking about what is the best way to go about this task. (A wife’s wish is always a task for the husband ;)) The simplest option was to play music on cell phone or iTouch with speaker mode ON. But considering the noise level in the kitchen, this definitely was not a good option.
