What about the millions of devices that are made for the current fitting? No way to dock the new I to old dock stations?? Like my Bose speaker?

I've read adaptors are already in production. I hope so because I have a butt load of chargers for my 3GS.

Just a few hours until the unveil.

I really wish they would put flash player on them. That's my only complaint.

If the I5 uses PCM, it will be revolutionary. Phase Change Memory could be part of this launch. Will be huge, if so.

What is that?

What is that?

 

See below: This describes PCM in a simple way.

 

Once an application is loaded into PCM, it never needs to be loaded again - even after power has been removed from the underlying memory. The application will always be in the state that it was in when it was last executed. So instead of supplying continuous battery power to the Facebook application, for example, PCM allows the phone to simply power-up the underlying memory once or twice a minute so that it can check for new activity. PCM-enabled phones will sip battery instead of guzzle. This is applicable for the operating system as well. After PCM, "booting up" will be a story that we tell to the grandchildren.

Interesting. Thanks.

New phone to have bigger screen and weigh less. 6 icons down, still 4 across.

I really wish they would put flash player on them. That's my only complaint.

 

That is the only thing that would make me jump for joy. I probably won't be getting this.

112 grams (20 percent lighter than 4s) - 7.6 mm (18 percent thinner)

4-inch display (up from 3.5 inches) - 1136x640 pixel resolution (up from 960x640)

5th row of icons on the screen

44 percent more color saturation

LTE network compatible, available on Verizon/Sprint/ATT, processor

graphics are 2x faster

No price or availability yet

 

According to Apple, the iPhone 5 will achieve:

 

• 225 hours standby

 

• 40 hours music playback

 

• 10 hours LTE use

 

• 10 hours video

 

• 8 hours 3G

 

• 8 hours Wi-Fi

 

Those aren't much of an upgrade from the 4S

 

If they were shooting for an earth shattering announcement, they missed. Sure, it'll sell extremely well, but that's the brand more than it is the generational leap it appears.

iOS 6 rollout on 19 September, for the iPad as well.

Same prices as 4S

 

$199 (16GB), $299 (32GB), $399 (64GB).

 

"When can i get my hands on one: you can preorder on September 14, ship just one week later, September 21st in US, UK, Canada, France, Hong Kong, Singapore, and then a week later in 20 more countries, by the end of this year in more than 100 countries with 240 countries. Fastest rollout ever."

There will be a re-designed iTunes store on the iPhone and iPad. And th App Store will integrate Facebook Likes into product pages."The new iTunes will be available in late October".
