Stop whining and go back to Microsoft!
LEAVE APPLE ALONE!

You have to think outside the box to know what they can improve, and obviously they know all that, but it costs a hell of a lot of money, so if releasing products with very small improvements keep selling, well they can really stretch this out and not blow their whole load on 1 new iphone.
There are all kinds of things that could be implements. Remote access to your mac at home is one thing I keep thinking about that would be awesome. I was at work last week and there was a file on my home network I needed that I had to have my girlfriend email to me.
Sony has remote access to the PS3 from their handheld game systems. Why cant I do this with my iphone? To me that is a very cool upgrade that is worth buying a new iphone for because I would actually use it. There are tons of things, you can think about all kinds of shit the iphone doesnt do but potentially could all day long.

Are any of you cats seeing the fragmented text on http://www.apple.com/ ?!

yeah but we're talking about a friggin' tricorder from star trek that does everything already.
what were you guys hoping for? what could you possibly add to it?
of course it's just gonna be small updates.
the new cord is kind of annoying though, since my macbook doesn't have a lightning port.

I don't understand why they haven't updated their UI...it's tired. And any new design I've seen coming out seems to be going in the wrong direction. Mystifying.

it is a bump, but a pretty bump.

Truth: we bitch, record sales will be coming... and none of us (whining here) will ever accomplish this level of impact with our design.
It's funny to listen to people talk about Apple going down... Apple is doing the same thing as always. Small improvements that work. The simple fact that they [usually] work really well is what still escapes other mobile phone makers...

christ, you'd think apple had split the atom.

"Small improvements that work"? Apple became what it is not from small improvements, but from awesome innovations and second-to-none design. Remember how everyone's mind was blown with the first iPhone? Those are the things that win people over, not minor improvements. They can't pacify consumers much longer if all they're doing is little improvements. People will start drifting away.

What's happening on December ninth?

iPod Nano interface is for sure ugly as shit. But I dont understand all the hating and whining against Apple... this new iPhone is great imo. Expectations are extremely high when it comes to Apple. And Apple is so popular now that some nerds are now hating them, like people starts hating Microsoft when they became super popular. Come on! Apple still build super nice and well conceived products. End of the story.
- Too many releases with no major evolutions, not build to last. Planned obsolescence.ApeRobot
- ...products are nice, but the politic behind, is wrong.ApeRobot
- all electronics have Planned obsolescence if you wanna know.benfal99
- and what are you expecting from them? Holograms and lazers?benfal99
- Being more green, and built product that last longer. They are filthy rich but still acting like money hungry bitches.ApeRobot
- people were saying the exact same thing against Microsoft a couple years ago. Funny.benfal99
- I don't care about microsoft, i expect apple to show a better example.
Being the best in every aspect.Not only hardware and software.ApeRobot - ...in fact i don't care at all, i still don't have a smart phone.ApeRobot

^^I'm not disappointed with the iPhone. Son, I am disappoint with the Nano. Completely off and identical to the Lumia Series, just weeks after a court battle about other devices beeing too similar to theirs. It's stupid (and they're ugly). Round icons is unconsistent with everything else. Does not compute. But whatever, they're just phones and music players... who cares.
