I'm not much of a tech savvy person, but my office has about 20 ipads and my co-worker had no problem upgrading most of them today.

All humor aside (those are hilarious), this is incredible when you really think about how smart Siri is. I think Apple has made yet another game changer...

iOS Blog: How To Put Newsstand In A Folder
Oct 13, 2011 1:10 pm PDT by Jordan Golson

The Coding Massacre has discovered a trick to force the iOS 5 Newsstand into a folder. The only reason to do this is to tuck Newsstand away and hide it -- users who have performed this trick discovered that opening Newsstand when its in a folder crashes Springboard, the main home screen on the iPhone.
Simply follow these steps:

- Take two apps and go to create a folder
- The second the apps are in the folder and it’s doing the folder creation animation, drag Newsstand into the folder
- As long as you’re quick enough Newsstand will go into the folder!

If you wish to use Newsstand at some point, simply remove it from the folder and place it back on the main level.

It worked. Finally got that useless app off my screen.

I've had Vlingo forever, and never used it. A built-in one? That's different.

If they can't port it over, I might be tempted to upgrade.

The voice command feature is the most over rated thing on these phones, both Android and iOS. It sounds great, but it's rarely used in real life.

I've actually found much more use for it recently as I discover new (to me) features. If I'm on the Aux2 mode in my car, I can use it to play playlists or artists without having to find them via the nav screen. Much safer. I can see the most use out of this in the car, especially reading texts and responding back.
