So I grabbed iOS 7 for my iPad.

Hmm... HMM...

As much as I like the look of it now, with ligher colors and less silver, but it does look flat. I don't like how the timeout on network using apps, like TurboIRC, Is threatening to disconnect after about two minutes of non-focus.

I really like the app switcher now. I has an Android feel to it and you close apps like Windows 8. (Creative!)

Everthing else pretty much feels the same. I bet there's more easter eggs for the iPhone though.

IOS 7: Finally doing what jailbreakers have been able to do since IOS 2!

Sbsettings, auxo, etc.

Don't get me wrong. It's beautiful and I'm excited to get those things as a core part of the software. But it's shocking to me how one of the richest companies in the world has to go to the jailbreaking community/other phone developers for ideas.

Apple needs to step up their game. I've rode with them this far, but I might jump ship next generation.
