I am set up pretty well for this one. I have an iPhone 4 so I skipped one upgrade, my Verizon upgrade is due in November so I am all set to get an iPhone 5 after the first of the year once they fix the inevitable software bugs and such. Looking forward to see what they upgraded!

From this "Save the Date" teaser, it is obvious that they are talking about the iPhone 5.  Look carefully...

 

Hey, the shadow is wrong.. wait.. I see what they did there... Sneaky Apple... Nice catch..

One great benefit of having 3 kids with cellphones is I always have upgrades available.

I hope so!  My 3GS is also dying and I've been waiting for the 5 before I upgrade.

Classic Apple. :D  I'll admit though that I didn't see it until the cnn article told me about it...but I wasn't looking that hard either!

Bump.  So when the heck is this release???  What time???  My phone was being extra picky this morning and not responding well (surely that's super secret programming worked into the last update by Apple so that on the same day they announce a new phone I would be REALLY sick of my old phone, right?).

The release isn't too bad, but if you saw the leaked photos, you've seen the phone.

So far I've just read some summaries on cnn and such...and I still want one!

It's definitely a huge jump from my ailing 3GS...the updated camera and speed would be more than enough for me!  But there's other stuff! :D

Preorders Friday, actually available a week thereafter.

I'll put it on my tentative Christmas wish list.

I wonder if I pre-order on Day 1 when I'll actually get it.  I really would love to have it in hand prior to my 9 Oct departure for Kona...I'm afraid that if I wait a week to pre-order I'll be so far back on the list that I won't get it forever! :D

On thing to note, from what I read, all of the iphones (back to 4 if I read correctly) will receive the new ios6, bringing everyone's phone up to the latest and greatest.

The only difference from there will be the hardware ie- bigger screen, camera, and processor.

As an iPhone 3GS owner, I am so excited.  I'm pre-ordering tomorrow.  My biggest decision is what color and what size.

I saw on the news that Apple has changed it's charge plug on the 5.  I hate that they do that!  There is an adapter available, so it's not as annoying as when they changed the charging.  My old iPods and new iPods don't charge on the same devices.

I am looking forward to getting iOS6 on my iPhone 4 next week, should be a nice upgrade!

 

I was set on upgrading to the 5, but apparently if I do I will lose my unlimited data with Verizon unless I pay full price for the phone. Gonna be a tough one to decide between a new phone or unlimited data. 

Might just stick with the 4 with iOS6.

I'll admit I'm a fan of the black...never understood having the white one.  I prefer to add color via case.

And I always get the largest one. :D

But a whole new charging cable is less than that!

I'll probably buy ONE adaptor for my car charger since that is fairly new.  But the phone will come with a connector cable...I might buy one extra connector cable because I like to use one to charge it in my bedroom and keep one near the computer.  But that's convenience more than anything else.

Just wait a month or so.  Monoprice will copy it and sell one for $3.
