Yep, nothing on the developer page yet.
I wonder how many people will put off to upgrade with the supposedly lack of Street View & ad-free YouTube. Some got quite 'upset' about those removals. Although Apple stated Googles' contract expired and they didn't renew, IIRC. Will the download of iOS6 for current iPhones be less, percentage-wise, compared to iOS5?

I wonder if the 4s will gain Panorama after update to iOS 6?
Any developers out there know how iOS 6 performs on an iPhone 3GS? What features have been left out? Does it feel cumbersome and irritating like iOS 5 does for me right now, or is it optimized for speed on a 3GS?
