Of course, there's no reason you couldn't get the turn by turn to work on the 4 or 4S (after all, I have turn by turn working on my HTC G1 from 2009), but you want to bet apple will sing the usual song, "the hardware is not up to par"?

Somehow Apple managed to put a spin on that move from iphone 4 to 4S and turn the public perception to perceive it as a "major upgrade", due to Siri. This will be an important case study for "Marketing 101" classes for decades to come. But I doubt they can keep it up.
