Every "serious" case of biometrics being used that I've seen in the past have been part of two-factor authentication anyway.
iOS sucks ass for enterprise use anyway, having a terrorist steal the thumb of one of our mobile workers would be the least of my worries tbh

Well that was better than I expected. Wasn't expecting the 'cheap' one to be better spec'd than the 5 and and AN ACTUAL FUCKING FINGER PRINT SENSOR
64bit is interesting, I'd like to know the real benefits of doing that but can't imagine Apple took the decision lightly, there must be some tangible benefits.
Some decent update's, tempted to sell the 5.
PS. 5C is not actually cheap at all, as predicted.

It's launching in China so they'll have no shortage, probably have a billion of them ready to go.
I think the whole colour thing is due to the Chinese demand.
They sold something like 88m iPhones in the last quarter in china compared to around 35m in the USA.
In China, they don't like Black and White because these colours are associated with misery and sadness, so it makes sense to reinvent the colourful models for the biggest market.

Camera and accompanying camera app/software features looked pretty decent; everything else was a bit 'meh' in terms of technical innovation.
Still not NFC (thought they'd add this as Passbook is shite) or wireless charging (predictable) though.

So how come they are advertising the 16GB 5c for $99 but it's over £400 here, that doesn't make sense.

Probably would not be able to anyway as the iPhone 5 available in the USA is still not the global version so according the apple nerds I spoke to it won't work in the UK.

Some of the LTE bands aren't supported on the US version; otherwise it'll work fine.
