Just read this on the BBC. I can only imagine that this is because of his health tbh, maybe he's now terminal I could be wrong of course

very clever timing. They know its going to hit the share price when ever this was announced and it was inevitable. A month later the IP5 is released and it gives the share price a boost back up.

A few people I know in the medical side of things say its amazing hes survived this long and most people would have popped it by now.

As long as Jonny Ive is still at the company that the key thing. If he left it would be quite a hit.

Only people who were stuck in 3GS contracts say that, the 4 is a massively superior phone, the 3GS is a plastic toy with a shocking screen in comparison.

Every 3GS I've used seemed slow and unresponsive at times in comparison to my 4.

And yes the 4's screen is superior to the 3GS.

The iPhone 4 is a good phone, the 3GS is shit in comparison.

Suppose it's like folk saying they prefer a Nova to a Corsa D because it has soul i.e. they can't afford a Corsa D.
