Apple hasn't announced the new iPhone at WWDC in 3 years, with the iPhone 4.  My guess is we'll see a minor update with a case redesign and added LTE.  Rumors are the processor will remain the same, battery may be bigger though. As for Apple's new mapping software, it's got a steep hill to climb.  Most reports I've read are groaning about it.  It doesn't work offline like Google Maps does (at least on Android).  I found out an interesting tidbit about Google Maps for iOS.  Apparently it's written by Apple, not Google.  Apple people that complain that it doesn't have most of the features (turn by turn navigation, voice assist, measure and scale tools, additional layers, offline settings, etc) that the Android version does, but that is because Google didn't write that app.  Apple writes their first party apps.  Rumor is that Google mayrelease a new 3rd party Google Maps app  once their Map app is removed from iOS. I didn't realize how much I used, or depended on, Google Maps when I had my Android phone.  I've had an iPhone the past few weeks after losing my Galaxy S2 on a drunken bachelor party weekend in Atlanta.  Had to use the iPhone to get directions to our hotel in St Augustine and the interface on the Map app is terrible and incredibly limited.  The "directions" map mode isn't very good and doesn't update the route if you have to detour.  Had to let my wife drive so I could navigate.  I then decided to try WAZE on iPhone, but it doesn't allow typing when you're driving.  iPhone is definitely in need of a full-service map and navigation app, we'll see if Apple's new venture works out. 6/12 9:23 AM | IP: Logged
