    Finally.... the only workaround that i found on my ipad for this issue its "AnyAttach" from cydia. Hopefully they also add an easy way to attach documents like pdf to the emails.

    So glad this is being added. I've found the lack of it a nuisance also.

    I'm glad to see Apple fixing the little things. That's what Apple does. They keep improving their products and operating systems, until they get closer and closer to perfection. But there are still people complaining about how the OS is "boring" and how "nothing changes". Guess what? I'd rather see 200 minor improvements to the OS than a huge, unnecessary change that messes with Apple's tried-and-true concept of an operating system.

    I'd rather not use a boring OS but that's me.

    There's nothing particularly exciting about ICS/JB after using it on a Nexus device since it was launched. It works well, and many mistake working well and reliably for being boring on iOS. So therefore, couldn't I say that Android is now boring, too?

    It is opinion but I prefer mass customization and being able to make my device look and feel the way I desire, something which was absent for me after owning an iPhone for 2 years.

    But how often do you do that? You might do it fairly often, but, as most people do with rearranging the icons on their iPhone, most people will do it once, and then call it a day.

    And mass customization for the mass audience is basically identical to what it is on iPhone, but you have widgets as well.

    I find it pretty sad that Apple could only come up with 200 minor improvements and nothing major like IOS 5. Their new map app is inferior to Googles for non US countries, thier Passbook app again will be useless once you leave the US borders. They need a major change to get people excited about for IOS 6 joe public won't care about 200 minor upgrades and once they find they can't use streetview in thr maps app they will straight to the app store to get Google back
