I think you're setting up a strawman here, and ignoring the legitimate complaints.
Certainly you can find people who have ill-founded ignorant reasons for avoiding the iphone 5. and then you have entire countries full of people who can't use maps anymore. It is utterly useless for them.
Personally, I am not enthusiastic about upgrading because I don't like the new screen size. I think 3.5 inches is pretty close to perfect, and 4 is heading towards unwieldy.
This is coming from a guy (me) whose entire livelihood comes from writing iOS apps. So you're going to have a little trouble branding me a "hater."
