Further to this, I find the Siri integration really slick. Just to try it out, I searched for a restaurant that I was going to for lunch. It found it quite easily. I noticed that Siri was using Yelp to find the place. I think the results are more accurate than searching for something within the maps app.

Now I get turn by turn directions over the speakers and I don't have to worry about being distracted at all. I haven't had a single issue with Apple maps yet either so I'm defintely enjoying the new integration into IOS6.

I like the audio turn by turn directions, but I prefer it coming out of the phone speaker rather than overriding my radio. This alone makes me prefer Apple maps for now, especially since discovering that Siri works well for searching businesses that would be on Yelp.
