The Vergecast 047: iPhone 5 and getting lost with Apple Maps

It's a Friday night and magic is in the air. Maybe it's the excitement from the release of the iPhone 5. Maybe it's all the extra LTE waves flying through the air. Or, maybe it's that special type of magic that only comes from a Friday night Vergecast. We'll let you decide. On this week's episode Joshua "as seen on TV" Topolsky recaps his iPhone 5 review, Nilay details Apple's wrong turn with maps, and Paul reveals his revolutionary idea for making use of the iPhone 5's added screen real-estate. Also, Dan Seifert drops by to review iOS 6 and the latest from HTC.
