Apple Store in the Vancouver Airport had the adapters a couple weeks ago.

Havent seen/heard of one in this area yet, have heard that there are some aftermarket suppliers but havent tried one of those and would be afraid to with apple's proprietary style.

I can tell everyone that the map system on the bike works great when it works right. Last week I was in Indiana and it sucked as the map was wrong but yesterday I simply told siri find (where I was going) the map worked flawless with the turn by turn overiding pandora and then after the comand would let pandora continue, the map was great with the turn shown on top counting down the mileage. I could get use to this maybe throwing out the Zumo....

I had the upgrade available,, so i took it,,  there is a big differnce from the 3gs to the 5 yes,,, lots of changes along the way... not so much from the 4S..  its your call,, i like new toys,, thats the main reason i got it,,,  havent tried out the new Maps yet,,  most of the time i do have an idea where im going ,,,     i hope to have that adaptor soon .

I went from the 3GS to the 5 and must say the iPhone 5 freaken rocks!!! and it is fast as lightning! I was also able to bluetooth connect it to my Zumo 665.  Glad to make this change!

Getting on the Internet is soooo fast on the 5.   Best part of the whole deal.   Way faster.

Stu, is it that much faster than the 4S? Or did you have something else?

The 4S runs on 3G networks. The 5 runs on 4G/LTE networks which are 5 to 10 times faster for internet access so, if you live in a city with LTE, or travel to them, the difference is significant. Plus, the processor in the 5 is about twice as fast as the 4S so all programs run faster.

This interview pretty much sums up all the reasons to get the iphone 5

[Cvostu]

Rob,,, so much faster.  I think it's faster than wi-fi.

[Cvostu]

Yup.  She is the best sales person apple ever had.  Watch that video. You will know all you need to know.

It is faster than my dsl and that is fast. The LTE is much faster in my area at least for now, who knows what happens when everyone has lte

As far the hardware it has twice as much memory (1gig) as the 4s, and the processor is a 1.3 gig running arm base witch is optimized for its environment making this thing so much fun as everything has no hesitation. I think it is much better that the 4s just  not sure if it is worth paying the upgrade fee inside the two year upgrade window with the cost....

I have notices the maps getting better in the little time Ive had it. Ive had my 4 synced to the Zumo b4 but it was a pita so I disabled it maybe I need to try it again  hoping they fixed the problems...

[Robmay]

Thanks everyone. I will check into it hopefully today.

What's the point of syncing the phones to the Zumo, in this case the iPhone?

X2?

What I want to know is with the adapter does it work thru the HDPDPlus2?
If it does I will use it for my GPS.
