"EarPods are designed to direct sound into the ear."
Well the old ones failed miserably at that.

Anyone watching/listening to these two guys on engadget?

It's kind of hilarious. They are talking purely on speculative features and updates, but they're so passionate. It's like their minds and opinions are already made up and the even hasn't even happened yet.

All I really want is a new, more durable, thinner exterior design. I have no complaints about how the thing functions. Things can always be faster of course.

^ Picture identification for login? What if someone just holds a photo of that person up to the camera? I've never used the phone, but it seems like a security flaw.
Anyway, it seems whenever Apple comes out with a phone that doesn't have an "S" after it's name, it turns out to be pretty impressive.

Stop saying "need" as if they won't sell millions of the new model no matter what. The first iPhone was "amazing," the rest have been incremental upgrades, and each release sells 50% more models than the last. If history tells us anything, Apple will release a faster, nicer new model with some new features and upgrades (most of which we know about already), it will sell more models than any model preceding it, and people like fadein11 will still say it's a failure even though it sells more models than any competitor's phone.
- I guess my point is that every 6 months someone says Apple "needs" to do something or they'll failmonospaced
- but even when they don't, they don't failmonospaced

The new iPhone is supposed to have a unibody case, which means it will be thinner, lighter and STRONGER.

What is the funniest part about this, its that before Apple becomes as big and popular that it is since 3 or 4 years, everyone was in love with Apple and everyone were defended Apple in any forum. Now that it has become "popular" Apple is not as cool and some are beginning to hate the brand ...
This is exactly the same thing with music ... When a group is underground, it's cool and is venerated, but as soon as it becomes popular and knows a lot of success it is automatically bad for some people.
I think some hipsters are angry because before they thought themselves superior with their Mac "made for graphics" and that their aunts now use the same Mac to watch videos of cats on the internet.
Apple is as good and cool that it was 10 years ago. End of story.

SMASH PROOF SCREENS
Why is this never mentioned as a priority?
The 3GS could last (if you were careful), but the 4S is nothing but a timebomb without a case/shell – everyone I know has either cracked one or utterly demolished it.
To require an accessory made by a third party (99.5% of which either work like shit or cost the price of a small car) is just bad design.
I don't believe they can't find a material that does this job

- They haven't found it, but they sure as hell have synthesized itmonospaced

Apple should make the new iphone with a flat oled screen on one side and a small efficient solar panel on the other
That I'll buy
- Wow! How are you not their head of R&D?waterhouse
- good idea. hopefully they wouldn't overheat or get stolen while lying around in the sunscarabin

Redesigning for the point of redesigning would be stupid.
If it aint broke don't fix it. The iPhone 4 design is great for now.

I bet you any amount of money if they called it the "iphone 5" there would be no discussion. Everyone is bugging out about the name. Who the hell cares what it is called. I bought the original iPhone then 3gs and now 4s. I was driven more by what was inside not how it looked but personally I think the design of the 4 is nice. I agree with everyone above. Do you really think they need to redesign it every year. Have you read about the technology thats inside of it? C'mon people FFS.

^ I still predict the 4G or 4GS model in the next few months, followed by the 5 next year.
