[Electronics-talk] Heard a lot of griping, but what is good about the upgrade

[Christopher Chaltain]

I'm not sure what griping you're talking about. I'm on several lists 
where people have talked about features that they had hoped would have 
made it into IOS 7, but I don't consider this griping, but rather just a 
good discussion about how something so good could become even better. In 
fact, given the hype about IOS 7 coming from Apple prior to the WWDC, 
I'm surprised there hasn't been even more negative press about how IOS 7 
hasn't lived up to the high expectations set for it.

IOS 7 hasn't been released yet and won't be for months, so there is no 
opportunity to download it and give it a try. All we can talk about is 
what Apple announced was going to be in IOS 7 and the few demos it gave 
at the WWDC keynote.

I haven't kept up with the different lists of new features in IOS 7, but 
you can definitely find this information all over the web. A few things 
I can remember off of the top of my head is:

* Some new voices for SIRI. No one is sure if they'll also work for 
VoiceOver or not.

* A Control Center where you can easily get to and change different IOS 
settings.

* I think I heard you can now have folders inside of folders but don't 
quote me on this.

* A new Safari.

* Multi threading for all applications and not just Apple applications.

and tons more. Like I said, this is just off the top of my head, but you 
can find different lists all over the web with a Google search.
