meanwhile Android is kicking it into higher gear with JellyBean and taking over the market.
Apple...stupid gimmicks like Siri isn't what the consumer wants...they want a more fluid and accessible OS.
iOS is dying fast...

Exactly. What kind of company puts put point updates? ONLY major updates should be released. Any company that puts out both major AND minor updates is headed for doom--and fast! Just as you say.
You seem certain Apple is not working on iOS 7. I bet you're right--it's just the kind of thing they'd forget to do!
(But I think you mean Android 2.3, not Jelly Bean. Jelly Bean's market penetration is amazingly poor for how long it has been out :p That's Android-style planned obsolescence for you... at least Apple gives you updates for the 2 years you're paying off the phone.)
Forgive me if anyone has already said this, but all I've heard about the latest Android update (4.2) has been how buggy and awful it is.....
What was that about Android pioneering the future? :rolleyes:
Remember: Apple is not perfect. Android is not perfect. But Apple's successes NEVER matter and their flaws ALWAYS do. While Android's successes ALWAYS matter and their flaws NEVER do. The troll's mantra!
Sadly, the public doesn't realize that and keeps flocking to iOS in droves, giving it customer satisfaction numbers that Android cannot touch. So many Android users don't even know or care that they have an Android phone. They're glad they have a web browser and have no idea that a more painless option exists. But if they ever try a malware-free, power-efficient, easy-to-use iPhone, they're not likely to go back to Android. Switchers exist in both directions... but far from equally! Look at the numbers and you'll see Android taking market away from dumbphones, not from iOS users.

iOS does not need JellyBean to not lag. I'm always wondering what these people think when they are writing something like what the quoted author said. The point of Jelly Bean (Project Butter) was to make Android lag less and android fanboys call it the greatest thing ever happend to Android, while iOS really has had it from the beginning (full hardware acceleration).

WOW. This is the first time a .1 software update has been a complete fail. IOS 4.1, 5.1 brought some insanity to IOS. This is a joke.

Been working for a day now with the beta 5 / GM update and I am pleasantly surprised by improved speed and battery time on my 4S.
I prefer stable usability over eye-candy user-interfaces such as Jellybean and Windows Phone stuff any day.
Great job, Apple!

Too bad most Android phones don't get updates. And few are actually running jelly Bean: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jelly_Bean_(operating_system)#Android_4.1.2F4.2_Jelly_Bean
