Good for Apple. They did the right thing and honestly Maps isn't that bad. Is it as good as Google Maps? No. Is it up to the same ulta high standards that people expect from Apple? No.
It's unfortunate that a CEO apologizing for a product not living up to consumer expectation is such a rare event now days. Apple has apologized several times in the past for iOS and other missteps in general.
I hope other CEOs can look at this example and realize that apologizing for not living up to consumer expectations is the right thing to do.

No, the right thing to do is to not embed a rough Beta product into your OS. It makes the OS and Company look stupid and unprofessional - especially when you can't offer an immediate fix.
That's twice in two 'new' iOS's in less than a year that Apple has embedded rough Beta products. If you must offer a Beta, build a category in the App Store for them and let the user choose to install / uninstall it from there.
