    My 4S and iPad 2 took about 8 minutes each without being connected to iTunes, just wifi. Had about 8 apps update on each.

    My iPhone 4 updated without any issues.

    My new iPad 3 won't update and it's pissing me off..... Still trying.

    No issues here so far...Work iPhone 4 updated in about 30min, iPad 3 about 15min or so and Allison's iPhone 4s about 15-20min. Just need to get her iPad 2 updated and will be good to go.

    LOL. User error I suppose. The podcasts are still accessible via the MINI, you have to navigate to Genre/Podcasts to get to them.

    :D

    I thought the VIP mail box was odd. Like I have so many friends I need to file some of them as VIP's, so I don't miss anything. :lol:

    Since Apple's Maps suck right now, it will take years of crowd sourced information for it get better, you can still use Google Maps.

    Use Google Maps via a web browser by going to maps.Google.com .

    The first time you load the page, it should ask for permission to use your current location, which is necessary if you want to use the web version of Google Maps. If you turned off the location services for Safari or an alternative browser, you will need to go into Settings/Privacy/Location Services and turn it back on.

    To make it easier to access in the future, once the page loads, tap the share icon (the rectangle with the arrow pointing to the right) and click on 'Add to Home Screen' to add the site as an icon on the phone.

    I just loaded up the free Mapquest App, which has voice over directions. Will be trying it out today. Hope it plays through the MINI speakers.....:idea:
