;D

Still, you'd have to be pretty retarded to update your iPhone to a new major IOS version until at least a couple of minor revisions have been released.  Mind you, these are Jobs worshippers....

Our IT guys sent a note out last week not to upgrade iPads to IOS7 until further notice but they didn't say why

I think you've missed the point. A non-user shouldn't be able to put the device into airplane mode, thus disabling the 'find my iphone' feature' once the phone has been locked. With iOS6 you couldn't, with iOS7 you can.
