The adapter is hilarious.

 

[GCX]

Yeah its so weird the responses from this thread, i think this is actually a pretty significant upgrade.

There's really nothing new or better compared to the competition, that's the reason for the lukewarmness.

"So a lot has changed, and it's time for the connector to evolve. Our new connector is called Lightning. So we have Thunderbolt and Lightning."

Thunderbolt in the same sentence... but it's USB 3.0 only?

 

[SmokyDave]

Well, people are going to be disappointed because much of these changes are already available on the S3 which has been in the market for a few months now.

You know the bit at the start where they mentioned the eleventy billion apps?

I'll let you figure it out.

I've seen enough, just give me the release date.

 

[planar1280]

iOS 6 . you guys better get ready for iPhone 5 exclusive features for iOS 6

 

[Tunesmith]

Apple just revolutionized the cable™.

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

Fuck you Square Enix, Lightning is everywhere.

LOL.

 

[Treefingers]

iOS 6... ugh

where is my iTunes dammit

 

[flyover]

Apple is improving literally every single internal aspect of the phone, all audio/photo/video subsystems, in incredibly thoughtful ways, yet this will be called a 'pathetic update' because it 'looks generally the same'.

Happens nearly every time. Plus, it's considered a letdown because the leaks were true.

 

[God...frey Jones]

So much witless cynicism in here. I, at the very least, hope you find yourselves amusing.

Nothing killer appish for me, granted. But it's only half over, right?

 

[Biff]

Steve Jobs would be shaking his head right now. Hideous and completely un-user friendly.

 

[Darko]

Sweet I won't need a new iPhone cable for my car =)

id rathter get a new cable then having to deal with that adapter.

 

[goodfella]

So, USB 3 in or out?

 

[Liquidsnake]

Will this be exclusive to Sprint for a while?

 

[Hari Seldon]

New connector is a blatant money grab.

 

[Red_taiyaki]

Adapter - $29.99. Cough up bitches.

Unless you buy one directly from China . $3.99!!!!!

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Steve Jobs would be shaking his head right now.

The turning in his grave could power an iPhone 5...

 

[SCHUEY F1]

Thanks for the breaking news!

[alphaNoid]

hahahahaha oh man, so basically everyone with accessories has to buy an accessory to use them?

Xzibit would be proud!

 

[dark_chris]

T-Mobile is a piece of shit for not getting the iPhone. Wtf man.

 

[LM4sure]

Do all what stuff? GTFO!

 

[paperboywriter]

It does't matter. Apple could announce a 100% new iPhone, different in every way and people would be doom and gloom about it. A lot of people in this thread are watching not because they actually want a nice new phone but because it's entrainment, therefore all they want is drama.

 

[kingocfs]

That adapter is awful.

 

[Polishin8r]

iOS 6 time. Watch out Jelly Bean?

nope apple is to scared to refine their os and push innovation the way Google does, why fix it when it not broke? lets see how far it will get them

 

[Mr. F]

Scott Forstall reminds me of Steve Buscemi.

 

[BFIB]

 

[Gandie]

New Ipod Nano please. Save the day Apple!

 

[SlowRevolution]

I've got a bad feeling that they're going to skip over the earpods.

Didn't we already get this iOS 6 demo, or is a cinematic camera angle something new?

 

[plainr_]

Really happy about the reversible connector.

Why? It's a transitional adapter... no different than other adapters they've released before

 

[Zeth]

4S packed and shipping label printed.

I'm gonna break refresh button on the store.

Really happy about the reversible connector.

Will be great for night-charging

It's not a 'pathetic update' at all, it just doesn't add what I had hoped for. Maybe I was hoping too much the rumors of a taller screen were wrong since I'd much rather have an overall larger screen.

 

[kehs]

Landscape too!?!

I wonder how they did that.

 

[Replicant]

iOS6 better be remarkably different than previous iOSes. So sick of little rounded square blocks.

I don't know if you're being sarcastic or not but I've never spent more than $2 total on the charging cord.
