I love my iPhone, I have said this before. The fact it’s the most used computer I have is one reason.
Almost all my computer needs are accomplished on it!
What I don’t understand is what Apple is doing with its own Apps!
My thought on this is, Apple brings out Ping. My visits to Ping are very few, then they bring out iTunes U, video, now we have a App for Podcasts!
While they are fine Apps, why is apple giving me so many Apps?
Why can’t Apple integrate all these into one App. With one App I may visit the dreaded Ping. Also they could please a large percentage of users who don’t want to be stuck with the dreaded Newsstand.
It also seems so clunky to have two different ways to access my podcasts.
I just hope Apple fixes this for IOS 6!
Thank you, end of Rant!

I hate NewsStand on my iPhone!
I love my iPhone, in fact I am typing this blog on it. I use it all the time to keep up with news, family, & friends.
I have a iPhone 4 as there was really no need to go to the 4S. I can wait to meet Siri next year when she comes out of Beta.
One thing about the IOS 5 update that really bugs me is Newstand! I gave it a look on the app store, and even the subscriptions that claim to be free all have prices connected. I have deftly places the Newstand icon in another folder,(something it doesn’t like, as it is a folder itself). If you want to know how to do it just look it up on YouTube.
Of course every time I sync my phone it pops out again. I can’t delete the bloody thing. So it just sits there, empty & unwanted.
Apple is about elegance and the user experience. Steve jobs was a known minimalist!
So Apple please let me delete Newstand if I want to, make it a section in iTunes like books, podcasts! Let me have the elegant clean look I want on my $300 dollar phone with contract!
Is that too much to ask?
