Just saw a coworker who waited in line at the Apple store this morning to get his iPhone 5. It looks really good in person, not too big at all. I like it.
I still hate the new Apple Maps though.

The majority of Android phones are running 16:9 since forever. Its the reason why we don't get those annoying black bars when watching videos...Apple actually used it as a con when comparing it to the iPad's 4:3 because reading books is better at 4:3.

UPS guy 
Anyone running 6.0 on a 4S experience decreased battery life? It's not terrible but it's noticeable.

Apple accused of copying Swiss clock design in iOS6
Apple has been accused of copying a classic Swiss railway clock design in an app shipped with the latest version of its iPad and iPhone operating system, iOS.
Apple launched the latest version of iOS this week, including an iPad alarm clock application featuring analogue faces. Schweizerische Bundesbahnen, the federal train operator in Switzerland, claims that these clock faces infringe a copyright design created for the organisation in 1955 by Hans Hilfiker.
The minimal design has become a national icon and is now licensed by Mondaine as a wrist watch.
SBB spokesman Christian Ginsig told Swiss newspaper Tages Anzeiger that the alleged use of the clock proved that it was a "true designer piece" and that the discovery had been a "joy". However, he also said that it was unauthorised and that SBB would be talking to Apple.
An SBB spokesman said: "We are in contact with Apple to seek together an agreement about the rights." Apple was not available for comment at the time of writing.

And more of them will, as they try to make their phones with better cleaner designs.
