BLITZER: The new iPhone 5 is out today, but there are already some grumblings about changes to the map app. Here's CNN's Brian Todd.</s>TODD: Wolf, here's the product that everyone is talking about, the new Apple iPhone 5. It's a huge hit its first day on the market. Millions of them sold. Users are saying that it is lighter, faster, has a bigger screen than the old version. Those are the positive reviews. It does have one big negative review though many users are complaining that the map application is faulty. That it can't find some locations properly. Doesn't take you to some locations at all that you know exist, can't find them at all on the map. So we're going to test it out. The one reason for this is this is a new application that Apple is launching on a new operating system. For years Apple used Google products, it's now moving away from Google and competing with Google in the map application realm. The new Apple application for maps can also be applied to iPads. So we're going to demonstrate using an iPad because the screen is bigger and you can see it a bit better. We're demonstrating it trying to find CNN in Washington on the map as well as a local hotel. We typed in Howard Johnson's on the new Apple map app knowing this hotel in Northeast Washington has been here for several years. When it came up, it did not show this location, but others in this area that are many miles away. Compare that to Google's map application and this address comes up on the first try. Let's try CNN Washington, D.C. and see where it takes us. OK, heading there now. Here we are now as close as we can get to the spot it told us to go, but hold on a second. That is the South Lawn of the White House. The Apple map failed to put us in the right spot the first few times we tried it. In response to the complaints, an Apple spokeswoman told us they launched the new map service knowing it was an ambitious project. She said they are commited to continuously improving it, and she said, the more people use that application, the better it will get. Wolf?
