    Windows updates are different. They're designed to only install when you're desparate to get out the door.

    Yeah I always fire up an update before I need to do some work, then have to wait a week, or install them over night only to find its hung at 3% the following morning only to have to restart the nine and half hour update over again before the system will run :rolleyes:

    It seems a bit buggy too..... A few freezes in Safari, and Mail app. New wallpaper is nice, so is predictive text on keyboard, as well as built in emoticons. Calender is waaay better, and easier, and comes up with all your birthdays as your birthdays are transferred from Facebook automatically.... No chance of forgetting now lol. Messages inc a voice message like watsapp... That will be fun! A few other nice touches, all in all its better!

    your missing the long awaited self timer on the camera app, plus time lapse. double click the home button for easy access to faves etc.you can also reply directly to notifications by swiping down on notifications.
    Not managed to crash it yet...still trying tho lol
