    Just been a chat on the radio about this and plenty of people are experiencing the same problem and waiting time.

    Probably because of the amount of people trying.
  • Download it on the phone and not the computer as it is quicker.

    Having used it for a bit theres somethings which are just terrible and others which are not bad.

    For some reason accessing the net through 3G is painfully slow now.
  • I've been running the beta for the last couple of months and it seems that today's release is the same as the update from a couple of weeks ago - so be prepared for a totally inaccurate battery meter (it will turn off when it says 12% battery), calls and texts not working randomly and soft reboots all over the place. It's a massive improvement on iOS6 in my opinion but I think they have forced out an unstable build simply because they have to due to the iPhone5S release.

    never update it as soon as its released, it always takes forever because the servers are so overloaded. Think i'll be okay living with io6 for a couple more days tbh

    I swapped my iPhone for a Galaxy as a trial and I'm genuinely shocked how much better the galaxy is.

    Mine is up and running and in my opinion it's an improvement. Got the iPhone 5 and this pretty much updates it to a 5S (apart from the A7 chip obviously).

    I'll happily continue with this until a significant change is made to the phone such as the ability to make you invisible or a time travel app becomes available.

    OK - so what does it do to my iphone 4s other than change the icons.
    I use the phone for call,texts,internet, and games.
  • Our IT department has told people not to update ipads due to concerns that it will screw up.

    Bless IT departments and they're useless information.

    I really like it, quicker, more thought out, and no faux wood and leather.

    It's a work in progress though, be interesting to see how it evolves in the coming years
  • Get a galaxy s4, best phone on the market by a country mile

    Took my phone 90 mins to download. Very big changes, I am sure I will get used to it in no time.

    Think I'll skip this update for a few weeks/months. Think I can live without it for a while.
