Bingo. If I buy a new phone, it's not going to be a new iPhone.

The big kicker will be assistant....but other than that, a let down.

Yea that's what rumors have been pointing to.

I don't see why people expected anything more.

It's just like the iPhone 3G to 3G S.

Anyways depending on performance of iOS 5 on my 4, I may upgrade since I can get upgrade pricing. And selling my 4 will cover the cost...

If someone wants to hit on the major things, that's fine. We just don't need ten new pages of posts when pretty much every site everywhere is going to have the info.

1:19 P.M. On to the iPad

Mr. Cook is talking about how pilots are using the iPad to replace 40-pound flight plans, which he claims makes the planes more fuel efficient. And that, technically, is true. But come on.
