I really hope you're lying. My phone I have currently is about to take a shit on me (4 years old), and I've been holding out for this new iPhone (4s).karen lotz;905340 wrote:I'm hearing that the iphone has been scrapped.

By scrap, I'm assuming just bump the date back? Seriously, my phone is about to take a shit on me.justincredible;905400 wrote:I can confirm what karen is saying. I heard it too.

It seems like Tim Cook wants to take the company in another direction. Or at least start over fresh with the iphone. I believe it is being scrapped completely and they are starting over from scratch. I've heard mid 2012 at the earliest.ernest_t_bass;905425 wrote:By scrap, I'm assuming just bump the date back? Seriously, my phone is about to take a shit on me.

Link? If it's on the radio, it has to be on the intertoobs.justincredible;905431 wrote:It seems like Tim Cook wants to take the company in another direction.

I heard essentially the same thing. Tim Cook really feels the future is in stylus devices so I would guess they're going to modify the iPhone to be optimized for it.

Rumor has it, Tim Cook believes that flip phones are going to make a comeback, and essentially he wants to go w/ the flip phone iPhone.gorocks99;905435 wrote:I heard essentially the same thing.

I actually just listened to a PodCast where Tim Cook said that he thinks holograph phones are the wave of the future.

Here is a fan made prototype of what the iphone might look like based on leaked cases and rumors.

Looks fantastic, hopefully this is close to the real thing.

4G is overrated. I hardly use it, it drains my battery like a motherfucker, and I have to pay $10/mo extra for it.karen lotz;916444 wrote:fantastic. 3G service is cutting edge stuff.

You know you don't pay $10 extra for 4g right? You pay $10 extra for any sprint smartphone
