6. Mapping needs a lot if work

I have reported 5 problems with mapping since yesterday afternoon. Apple has a long way to go on this area, but expect they will fairly quickly since its database driven.

It reminds me of Google Maps in iOS 3.1 or so. I was always reporting problems to them, too. Google still has a lot of problems, but is much superior to Apple at the moment.

Apple really needs to get the mass transit support from somewhere and integrated in. But Google is very frustrating to use with mass transit, can't seem to match mixed systems, and totally screws up walking times and distance. It likes to find short bus segments with long walks on each end and not count the walking times!
