This is what they're banking on. I'm guessing most people with a 4 won't be falling over themselves to get a 4S, but those with a 3GS will probably look to upgrade to it.

Also, they are getting rid of the yearly upgrade thing too.

But that came out 6 years ago.
Well, he sounds like a dumbass so it'll probably suit him.

If the Samsung/Google event goes like this, I will be highly disappointed.

Yea, if I had the 4 I wouldn't upgrade, but I'm off cycle, so until I am willing to pony up full price(which will be never), I will always be getting the 2nd generation of each phone.

Wall Street is unimpressed. Apple's stocks are down about $11 right now.

I have the 4, and I'm not sure if I'll upgrade yet. I think I'll just upgrade to iOS5 and and holdout for 5 next year. By that time I should be able to sell this for the price of the upgrade.

The main thing that intrigues me about the 4S is the camera. I can wait for the 5 and probably get an even better camera with even better performance upgrades. Possibly a bit bigger screen as well.

So the iPhone 4 is basically the same as always, the 4S has all the cool updates?

At that time someone could buy and brand new 4 for probably $49.

Down about $18 now. Ouch for investors right now.

I'm assuming it will pick back up in the next couple of weeks.

Good man. Use that money to invest in something that will give you good returns, like the OC.

Okay, I didn't read all of these posts, but one thing that irritates me about my wife's iPhone is that Flash doesn't work on it. Have they fixed that problem yet?

Not if they're not eligible for upgrade.

It's not a problem to be "fixed".

That is my one and only complaint is Flash. From what I understood Apple was developing a "rival" to flash and therefore would not use Flash but that was a while ago. Not sure where that stands.
