iPad, iPod and iPhone users

If you haven't yet updated to the latest system, do so immediately.

Lots of nice improvements, but the best is the News app. Beautiful user interface. You can set up favorite sources and favorite topics. It learns from your choices and provides topics that you may be interested in.

I also like the split screen access to more than one application. The hey advertise that the new system uses less battery power, and it does seem to.

Siri is available by voice command if the product is plugged in. Whether that is a plus or not remains to be seen.

is a cool thing that breathes life back into old devices, as always read up on it before using it

I've only tried it on one of my ipod touch 2g's but runs nice and smooth on that

The new system is great. Only I couldn't have the 3d touch on my old iphone.
