    I understand his reasoning. I'm not an Apple fanboy by any means but new iPhone launches have always excited me. This year, not at all and because everyone seems to know what to expect and the improvements compared to Android are not a big deal.

    That all said, this will be the strongest iPhone launch ever.

    Jury ruled that Samsung devices violated multiple patents including those protecting:

    -The bouncy "rubber band" effect when scrolling
    -double tap zoom
    -pinch to zoom capabilities and one fingered scrolling
    -trade dress registration on front of phone
    -trade dress registration on back of phone
    -trade dress registration for iPhone's home screen and icons

    Jury ordered Samsung to pay nearly 1.05b in damages.

    Looks fake, but I like the mission control idea.

    It could be, but it looks very similar to the promotional videos they used for the iPhone 3 and the iPhone 4.

    I'm pretty sure it's fake though. They wouldn't use the rendered model for their ad, they would use the actual iPhone 5

    The conspicuous purchases of the status-seeking cult at its finest. Planned obsolescence in frontpage headlines. Eat up you chickens!

    Gladly. I cracked the back of my iPhone 4 a while ago, so glad I can replace it with a 5 now.

    What's it to you how people want to spend their money?

    Sounds like jealousy to me
