Iphone 4S

So is anybody tempted? I've been waiting for months to upgrade my 4, but I must confess to being underwhelmed! Probably going to wait and hope there's a '5' coming out next year!

Can't help thinking maybe Apple have taken their eye off the ball, probably due to Steve Jobs being so ill, not being able to drive things through!

Much as I love Apple products, I do think they need to up their game in terms of product development and roll out. Range Rover-less at the moment - Pining!

I am going to get one to upgrade my wife's old 3G that I am using.

To be honest, I wasn't expecting a new device. I agree, it would have been nice but if you look at previous releases

Original iPhone -> iPhone 3G -> iPhone 3GS -> iPhone 4

the first three were evolutionary. It was only the iPhone 4 that was revolutionary in terms of spec and style.

Rumours were/are there is another device but that it currently suffers from display issues and overheating. I would rather Apple take the time to fix this rather than release a crap device.

It's not all doom and gloom though. Pocket-lint reported yesterday that pre-registrations for the iPhone 4s doubled those of the iPhone 4. It matched the same number of registrations in 5 hours apparently.

I wasn't surprised - they didn't jump from the 3 to the 4, so a 4S was no shock. I also work in the industry Wink

What I was surprised about was Steve dying Sad

So how did you manage that scarey when the software upgrade for iOS 5 is not available until the 12th of this month , two days before the ip4s is released

I was going to ask how, then I thought if you find it pants, and it's a Beta version, might be worth waiting a while for the gremlins to be ironed out, or do you think it will always be pants? Range Rover-less at the moment - Pining!

bozmandb9 - please stop using the "quote" button as a "reply" button, it adds a lot of overhead to the forum database when you just mean to reply to the last post in a thread. Thanks Smile Thumbs Up

There may not be any iPhone 4S if Samsung (who also make parts of the iPhone for Apple) manages to get their court case together in time and block sales 2018 Mini Countryman Cooper S E All4 PHEV in Melting Silver - it’s whisper quiet in EV and polluter modes

apparently they've filed preliminary injunction motions to stop the 4S from selling in france and italy, claiming patent infringement. ... - .- -.

I like Samsung TV's but their phones are Censored they need to wind their necks in. It's only petulant sulking that their 3GS... Sorry 'Galaxy S2' was such a rip off and Apple spanked their sorry arses for them.

Sorry [/RANT]
