When an upgrade is an "upgrade"

Well I have to say I'm annoyed. Here is the analogy. I buy a brand new car. The salesman shows me the aircon, satnav, ABS and electric windows. I like it. I like it a lot. In fact, I like it so much that I buy it.

Six months later, I get a letter from the garage for a free service. I take the car in. Yes, I get the free service. But what was not clear to me is that as part of the free se

rvice, they remove the aircon, and instead attach a little electric fan to the dashboard, as it's supposed to be better. I am very cross.

Anyhow, this is how I feel after letting Apple trash my Ipad with the IOS6 "upgrade". I bought the Ipad specifically because it had Google maps. It is what I used most, especially for business. Sorry Apple, you have lost a fan. Apple maps is a poor imitation, with half of Basingstoke a blur in the satellite view. So the main reason I bought it (to help spot trees and obstructions on my wireless installations) is now not possible. Apple, you have not made many friends here. Apple, resolve your spat with Google, or you may face legal action from your disgruntled ipad users. It is an avenue I have not ruled out myself.
