The apple maps are sub-standard all my windows users (over 1000 of them) that use the iPhones and iPads that have upgraded to IOS6 have taken their devices into the apple stores and got replacement units as the mapping component is completely useless and there seems to be no way to take the devices back to IOS6.
My users use the street view function a huge amount and need complete mapping and street view of the whole of london, the Apple mapping has major gaps in it. Whilst there is apps that do this job, it is completely out of order that apple have hijacked maps.google.com and map it to somewhere else, if they are not going to use maps.google.com for their component then they should release the URL so that it can be used in safari. This upgrade has gone down very badly in my user base, many of the guys that were going to upgrade their phones are not going to now.
