Apple shows off Instagram-style photo sharing, Passbook, Facebook integration and improved maps in iO6

Apple has taken the wraps of iOS 6, showing off new versions of maps, Siri, FaceTime, Mail and Safari and new features like Photo Streams and deep Facebook integration. Apple SVP of iOS Scott Forstall detailed the changes during today’s iPhone 5 launch event in San Francisco.

Forstall started off his portion of the presentation out with a short demo of iO6’s new Apple-developed maps app. The new app adds turn-by-turn navigation, satellite images, real-time traffic updates and tilt and rotate style viewing that allows users to see map information from different angles  by swiping two fingers.
