A shock or a surprise -> iOS5

I literally could not stop laughing when Steve announced the Hot new features of iOS5. I still remember all of his 4 speeches wherein somewhere down the line, he was always bringing in the facts that Apple is not a follower of Android. No doubt, Android incorporated the major good good goodies from iPhone since its inception... And it was not like a crime.. And it was not untold.. Be it Multi Touch gestures or Inertia scrolling... Of-course ,there is bunch, Or-course there is double bunch what it has too !!!

Well.. Lemme come straight to the point..
Notifications Bar.. Notifications Bar.. Why does an iPhone want it when i had heard almost every iPhone user finding it ridiculous of being in Android...

Newstand ?? Was that an innovation which existed for about an year???

Reminders ?? Ha Ha.. Alarms.. Reminders.. tasks to do!! What were these ...

Camera -> Well, to be frank, not much comments since every platform needs updates

PC Free -> Thank god.. Finally they understood what a smartphone should all be about of being independent of a PC or Mac (Who gave this idea????)

Safari -> Slow.. Slow.. Slow... As always been when it encounters a JS and a html5 component. Forget flash....

I seriously don't want to comment on the rest of the features as i feel it has some minutest details.. If this goes into iPhone5, I m sorry .. as i ever waited for iPhone4, I dnt think i would ever wait for iPhone5.


One of the most important reasons why i m unable to find these differences .. I can understood the way Google works.. the openness in the platform paved ways ahead for the app developers to innovate more compared to iOS developers. This definitely has led to think for more platform improvements and scale higher when some planned milestones by Google had been exceeded by app developers..

Well, My guess whats next iPhone version can expect:
1. NFC Support for Payments vi mobile device
2. Open accessories support so that external USB devices could be easily connected
3. Widgets and mobile desktop
4. Apple mail which can sync thru all of One apple accounts, be it mail , calendars or tasks to do or apps or whatever

Well, All in all.. I m surprised rather being shocked..
