I want one!

I see what you did there.

edit to fix my stupid droid's spellcheck, lol

Yeah, those are awesome

I have the 4s and I have never owned such an amazing phone.

That being said, I can't wait to see what the 5 will be like..

I really do like my droid bionic, but I use a macbook air for my laptop and the cloud drive is an awesome feature that I want to take advantage of.  So, I'm mostly looking at the interoperability with my mac as the biggest selling point.

I do like the widgets on my droid so I'm curious if apple will come up with their version of that.

I'm curious as to why the Apple Corp chose the symbol of an apple with a bite out of it as their moniker. Theologically speaking, does this not harken back to the apple Eve allegedly took a bite out of and subsequently hosing us all out of blissful perfection?

Meh, I have a 3GS as well, but mine still works great. At best i'll wait until after the first of the year, when the bugs are worked out and the price comes down, but only if it offers significant improvement over what I have. So far the improved features I'm hearing don't provide sufficient motivation.

The big question about the "mini-iPad" is its price point. It will have to be below $200 to compete with the Fire, or provide significant features to justify the premium that Apple normally charges.

It's explained in the Steve Jobs' book, and it has nothing to do with that.

You of course should make your own comparisons but IMO the difference between the 3GS and the 4S is pretty significant (4 to 4S not so much).  The difference between the 4S and the 5 (if even 1/2 the rumors are true) is going to be just as significant.

I don't upgrade every time a new one comes out...I skipped two releases (the 4 and the 4S).  I wouldn't be upgrading if my phone wasn't suffering.

But there is something to upgrading with each model.  If you sell your previous model as soon as the new ones come out you can make back a lot of the money you are spending on the new one.  But personally I find that changing computers/phones THAT often is more of a pain in the butt than it's worth!  I finally get my phone all set up and then I have to change everything!

I've had my current phone for over 3 years and that seems to be a decent lifespan for a phone....

You obviously haven't dropped yours in a mop bucket of dirty water or had to replace the glass. :D

I think the 4S was a HUGE jump from the 3GS...

Same boat here... just had to recently replace my battery because it was dying and acting so funky... I didn't hook my camera up, but I don't feel like undoing all those little connectors again... in short I'm waiting for iPhone 5 too!  My phone has been well used, but ready for retirement!
