The biggest story here that no one has commented on is the fact that this was the first presentation without steve jobs.
Everyone is hyped up for the release of iphone 5, they release a significant hardware upgrade but not the iphone 5, they release to a new carrier that is staking it's business life on having the iphone...
Everyone is talking about the product and not about if the company leadership can carry on. Jobs was as significant a part of all of the product unveilings as the products themselves.
Not one comment/complaint about the new guy....
I would say that makes this a spectacular release....
bravo apple computer.

bummed...my 3GS is on it's last leg and dying a slow death. i was holding out for the iPhone 5 before i upgraded. i can't imagine using this thing for another 6 months, but then again the thought of shelling out a few hundred bucks only to be left in the dust a few months later when the 5 comes out.
damn you apple!

"UBS Investment Research cut its price target on Apple stock to $700 from $780 on lower expected iPhone and iPad shipments for the March quarter."
China's #1 carrier chose a Windows phone as their flagship model.
- so they think the stock will go up 40% instead of 45%... what a nightmare for Applemonospaced
- They are all lower expectations as the stock slides. At 509, it isn't look too goodformed

- personally, I think they need a "real new" product to keep the company growingformed
- Fuck the expectations on Apple are extreme.inteliboy

Not need to upgrade, but people who haven't had an iPhone before may be interested in this "new" model.

I hope Apple names it something other than iPhone 5 just to make everyone calling it that look stupid.

Wait wait wait... I just had a thought that could have saved apple from people freaking. Instead of changing all the internals they should have left it the same as the iphone 4 and simply just changed the exterior and called it iphone 5. I'm almost positive everyone would have been happier with that. Fuck better battery life and fuck dual core processing with 1 gig of ram! I want a redesign!
