Hi,

My question is: Why are people in such a hurry to download and install a new
product?  Isn't it a fact that new software is always buggy? Isn't it true
that when a new software comes out, they are not even quite finished taking
the bugs out of the old one? Why is it that a lot of big companies are just
moving to Windows 7 now?

My suggestion is that, if you want everything perfect, you don't use any
high tech device.

Subject: Re: About iOS 7, is it really so bad? was: Apple now forcing iOS 6
holdouts to upgrade to iOS 7.

Only one person said that it downloaded and loaded.  The rest of those of us
who are concerned here either loaded the software and regret it or are
waiting and having limited space taken up by whatever got downloaded.
I'm not at all sure that had I known that I would have trouble entering
contacts as has been described on this list, that I would have chosen to buy
this phone.  What's easily gotten around by the experienced is not so by a
newby.  Now, I came in with my contacts having been transferred from my
previous phone.  It's now not as big a deal as it would have been when I was
first getting a phone and entering most of my contacts, but it might very
easily not have been that way.  I want a phone that's a convenience not a
chore.  I use a computer and don't tinker much.  This looks like a decided
step backwards.
