Here's why Apple's maps app is so bad (parody video)

The rest of the world hasn't caught up with Apple's internal technology

If you've been around the Internet-o-sphere today, you've probably heard that people are complaining pretty loudly about the new Maps application on iOS 6 (replacing the Google Maps option).

While we haven't yet heard an official explanation yet from Apple, we did unearth this video, which may explain some things. Note: This is a parody video, don't go expecting an actual video from Apple on this.

This does give me yet another reason why I'm probably not going to upgrade to iOS 6 for a while, and/or consider getting a Galaxy S III.
