iOS 6 Receive Spotty Support from Older Devices (New Feature)
Apple claims that iOS 6, the next generation iPhone's OS will be "compatible" wih the older devices like iPhone 3GS. iphone 3GS was orignally realeased nearly three years ago in June 2009 -- an eternity in gadget time.
However, bottom of Apple's iOS 6 info page it holds a note/small disclaimer: "Not all features are available on all devices." This is followed by eight notes explaining exact features which will work on which devices.
Some features, like the VIP List for email, the Offline Reading List, and Shared Photo Stream won't work on the iPhone 3GS. Even flagship iOS features like Siri and FaceTime over cellular won't work on recent devices like the iPhone 4 or the iPad 2 -- not to mention the iPhone 3GS.
All that said, however, iPhone 3GS owners will receive iOS 6 features like redesigned App and Music Stores, Cloud Tabs in Safari, Facebook integration, and other improvements -- it just won't include nearly the same number of features as the owners of Apple's latest and greatest gadgets.
