That's not much of an excuse. The point is they had a decent map app and they've replaced it with an inferior product. Whichever way you look at it, it's bad, especially considering Apple's reputation of releasing superior products when this is obviously inferior to the competition. If anyone regularly used the maps app on iOS5 and has recently upgraded, they're essentially screwed for a few months whilst Apple play catch up with user data; data they should have gathered themselves or at least in a user beta test.

I don't see how you think that's not much of an excuse. User-sourced data requires users. That's all there is to it.
And A LOT of this is being overblown. I've been using the app for a few days now and it hasn't led me wrong yet. If 1 out of 100 (or even 1,000) searches is screwed up, most people aren't even going to notice a problem. The Internet has a habit of taking shit like this and blowing it wayyyyyy out of proportion.

Remember the antenna FUD? I can't believe I almost believed that shit...
