Yeah, this is what I assumed to be the case and it is actually consistent. The rounded corner denote that the app "ends" there, whereas when there isn't rounded corners, the status bar becomes part of the app, so to speak.

Until 10.8.2 drops apparently
So my sister has sold her iPhone for an Android phone. Problem is, she's wiped the phone but did so without disabling iMessage, so any time I try to reply to her texts they're sent as iMessages that she won't receive. Is there anyway for her to disable iMessage without having to re-setup her iPhone, or for me to tell my phone to always message her by SMS?

This feature is in the 10.8.2 update which will probably come on the same day as (or close to) the release of iOS 6.

It should automatically fix itself the minute she turned her iPhone off
Well it didn't seem to. I flooded her with texts and it ended up sending them by SMS after they failed to be delivered, so hopefully that stays as the default now.
How long until most stores are set up for passbook? most of my loyalty cards required to be swiped (by the cashier) will we have to flash our phones now or what?
Ah cool. I've been tearing my hair out for an hour or so. I have caller ID set to my phone number in iMessages in iOS6 and set to receive at the phone number and my iCloud email but messages sent to my phone number aren't received on my laptop.
I've cleared out all conversations on my laptop and phone as I've read a few things about "initial conversation time stamps" in the apple forums.
I'll see what 10.8.2 does!
The airlines and hotels are going to get in quick. So far, I've seen the following confirmed as on board: Delta Airlines, American Airlines, United Airlines, Virgin, Starwood Hotels(Sheraton), Ticketmaster, and Starbucks. Not bad considering it doesn't launch for two more days.
Since Passbook works with existing systems and hardware, I'm hoping lots of companies will jump in quick.
I need Kroger, Fandango, Best Buy, Panera, and the major sports leagues to get on board, and I'm pretty much covered.
I will say this also, I'm far more likely to sign up for a new loyalty card in the future if the company supports Passbook, and far less likely to sign up if they don't. Its in any company's best interest to get rolling on this.

passsource.com has some templates that you can fill your info in:

8 hours and still 35% left? That's brilliant.
After 6 hours on my 4S I'm down to around 10%.
The hell? Why does iOS suck so much? Also new maps blows, give me googly maps pls.

Sounds like a Mazda issue to me, especially considering the iPhone works fine with pretty much every other vehicle on the market. I have zero issues with my Ford Sync and I have friends who don't seem to have problems in the Toyotas, BMW's and other cars.
What's the issue?
Wait for iOS 6 to release.

my lumia 900 phone works perfect with the mazda, Apparently mazda blames apple, and apple blames mazda.
It doesnt display track info when playing over bluetooth.

37 page thread on the issue lol
Hopefully if they fix it on mazda's end they will fix it for free under warranty

So, I dunno, clever. iOS GM has been released. It's the final version.
Passbook is the only thing not working, and will probably require the update to the public version to work. The GM version is primarily for developers to test out their apps on iOS 6, and they probably want to keep Passbook working for everyone at the same time.
There's PassSource if you wanna test it out, though. Open that in Safari and follow the instructions.

the point is that apps won't be out on the store that use passbook till it's released to the public and not just devs (and a few enthusiastic early adopters like us).

This has practically been giving me hives. I fucking hate iTunes Match now, it's an utter pile of toss thanks to the removed functionality. Practically speaking it adds, well, NOTHING but there are less options so that there's less confusion and greater illusion.
I've gone from being excited about getting my iPhone 5 to hoping that Google aren't far from striking a deal with the labels to provide a matching service (proper matching, not uploads) of their own so that I can have a phone with a worthwhile music player again.

Is it just me, or all the apps that utilize google maps before, kinda wacky now?

I haven't had any problems so far. What apps in particular are acting wacky for you?

The map previews for check-ins in Facebook show up wonky for me. The central area of the map doesn't render in the preview.

Strange, that works fine for me.

What are the Siri music control features like? Does a command like "output through headphones" (versus, say, bluetooth) actually work?
Having gone from iTunes Match to Google Play Music, Google's implementation is infinitely better. You can't find any way/connection where you could spend 48 hours uploading your music to their servers?
What version of sync? There are some known issues with Sync and iphone, such as 'auto play' still kicking in even if you've turned it off. My bluetooth also doesnt display track info. That my have been fixed in 2012, I don't know. I too thought I had read something about improved Bluetooth coming to the phone but I could be wrong.
Same. I'd actually take advantage of Google Music if there was a good (free) app for it.
You can upload 20,000 tracks for free is the basic of it. Doesn't matter where you bought it (or even if you did).
I've uploaded thousands and thousands of songs to Google Music. The others rely more on purchases you've made through them I believe.
Match is pretty much the same without the uploads, but you're limited to stuff that's on the iTunes Store and you can't just use a web browser to listen to what you want wherever you are.

Not quite. iTunes Match matches your library to what's on the iTunes Store and anything it cannot match, it uploads. I loved it, I could download anything, delete anything with ease until Apple decided to bork the mobile implementation with iOS 6 to provide some illusion of streaming for idiots who think the world begins and ends with that kind of thing.
What did they do in iOS 6 to break iTunes Match?
Did the people that complained about the old method specifically request Apple cripple the service in this way? (When did Apple starting listening to feature requests anyway)?

1) You can no longer delete music you've downloaded while it's turned on; you need to switch Match off, delete it and turn it back on again. Problem is that it's a crapshoot as to whether turning Match on again deletes everything you've downloaded to your device or not. Say you want to free up space to download an app so you turn off Match to delete some music - alas, the music you thought you were keeping might have to be downloaded all over again. Imagine that occurring just before you are about to catch a flight or travel somewhere with patchy signal.
2) There's now only a download button for individual albums. Before, you had the button by each song - SEE YA! You want particular songs stored for later now? Hit the song title, let tem stream and make sure you pause it before it finishes, or it will continue to streak and cache / download the following track. Rinse and repeat for every fucking song that you don't want to download as par of an entire album.

Just the glee that some people are showing over it now being a "true" streaming service, even though it's essentially identical less two important options.

Not if you have Match turned on.
What do you do on iOS? I adore Google Music but the mobile web app is awful and the third party apps on the store so far look cheap and I can't imagine they perform well.
