I'm quite chuffed to see Australian English is compatabile with Siri. I thought we were going to have all sorts of problems.

Yet MS still haven't fucking launched basic support for voice commands with Kinect. Ugh.
I want to get excited about Siri, but I've had the app on the phone for a long while and never really bothered to use it. Maybe the integration will change things, but I have a feeling I won't use it much besides messaging in the car
I did like how Siri seems to be a quick interface for tons of apps, since it uses the net to find lots of answers

You're not wrong. It's a magnificent case in all its forms. Can't wait to read your impressions when you have it.

I think it'll be night and day. The biggest problem with iOS is the way apps are so isolated from each other compared to their desktop equivalents. I prefer using the iA Writer keyboard to compose text on my iPad, but I don't leave my browser, open Writer, write my GAF post, copy it, reopen the browser and paste it into the reply box all that often. If I had the option of hitting a button and using the Writer keyboard instead of the Apple keyboard, I'd just have to tap the reply box and the keyboard would pop up. It would profoundly change my experience with the iPad. I imagine the Siri app and Siri integration is exactly the same.
That coolous case looks very nice indeed. I just pre-ordered my 4S today.
SoftBank (Japanese provider) is starting a campaign on Friday where people who haven't fully paid for their 3G or 3GS get the remainder of their balance waived, and still get the discount on a new 4S. Basically you pay for the phone over 24 months, about $20 per month, but they give you a discount of $20 per month so the phone is free. However if you get a new phone before those 24 months are up you have to pay the other half of it as once you get the new phone, your new plan has the $20 / mo. discount but your old one goes away. With their campaign, you get to get the new discount and keep your old one too, so the 4S is free, but your 3G/3GS doesn't have to be paid off.
I'd have to pay like $120, but now I don't. And I get a new 4S for free. SWEEEEEEEEEET.
I want one of those cases. I doubt they sell them in Japan, however. Hopefully there's a good alternative here.

iPhone 4S preliminary benchmarks show A5 clocked at 800MHz
iPhone 4S preliminary benchmarks show A5 clocked at 800MHz
electronista said:Preliminary benchmarks of the iPhone 4S that surfaced on the Internet have been found to show that the A5 processor in the iPhone 4S performs at about 75 percent of the capability of the 1GHz A5 processor in the iPad 2. This would peg the A5 processor in the iPhone 4S at 800MHz, according to Anandtech. However, its real-world scripting, browser and graphics performance currently puts it well ahead of its main Android competition, in the Samsung Galaxy S II and the Motorola Droid Bionic.
Despite running at a clock speed below its Android Gingerbread competition, and using apparently only half the RAM, the A5 processor in the iPhone 4S is able to outperform the Samsung Galaxy S II with its dual-core 1.2GHz Exynos processor and the Motorola Droid Bionic with its dual core 1.2GHz TI OMAP processor because of the way that Gingerbread ultilizes processors when browsing.
Where Android 3.0 (Honeycomb) and Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) are capable of addressing both processor cores when browsing, Gingerbread only addresses one of the two cores. If, and when, the Galaxy S II and the Droid Bionic get an update to Ice Cream Sandwich, their performance in Javascript is expected to increase markedly.
However, the graphics performance of the iPhone 4S will continue to outshine both the Galaxy S II and the Droid Bionic, despite its lower clock speed. The dual-core Power VR SGX 543 processor found in the A5 processor has a significant edge in performance over the Mali 400 GPU found in the Samsung Exynos 1.2GHz processor found in the Galaxy S II and the single core SGX 540 found in the TI OMAP 1GHz processor in the Droid Bionic that will not change with an OS update.

Is there a case similar to the Graft Leverage without the stupid latch?
So, it seems like the first German Telekom customers received their iPhone...

Whether it'd be 700 or 800MHz, is that the maximum locked clock speed or can it reach 1GHz if needed?

I was quite adamant that the iphone 4S/5 had to have a 4" display for me to bite, but the significant performance boost + new camera caught my attention, and Siri just blew me away -- I'm really glad to see this technology being taken so seriously, as i feel it offers a great deal of promise and has a variety of applications (particularly for the blind/vision impaired).

I didn't pre-order but I plan on staking out the local VZW store at around 4am on Friday, haha. I go to college in a small town so I'm betting my money that demand for the 64GB won't be that high and I'll be able to snatch one up before they're sold out.
Chuck said:
Well, good luck to you. I'm sure you'll get one as long as you get there reasonably early. Hell, they may not sell out at all, though. That being said, I just don't understand why people who are going to the store day 1 didn't just pre-order. Is it because you are paying with cash or what? I had this conversation with my cousin the other day and he was adamant that he just wanted to go to the store and 'not have to deal with the pre-order bullshit'. Meanwhile, he's the one that's going to ultimately deal with more bullshit than me.

Even if your order is listed as "Preparing for Shipment" it may have already been shipped/have a tracking number. Go to UPS.com/Fedex.com, track by reference # and put in your phone number, country and zip code. (This works no matter where you ordered from.)
Doesn't work for my phone yet but my wife's shows up.

Thanks, man. I'm not too worried about it. I figure most people will be there for the 16 and 32GB models as they're the most affordable. I didn't pre-order because I'm paying with cash and I also wasn't 100% sure what flash size and color I wanted. Good luck to your cousin!Vik_Vaughn said:

For those asking, still no shipping info on my order with VZW. Has anyone that's ordered from them received one yet?

Had an overnight e-mail confirming that my iPhone has shipped and the tracking number works just fine.
Those of you who haven't received that info yet shouldn't panic at all though. The system seems to be slow in updating or sometimes doesn't update all, and yet the products still ship on time. As I've mentioned in this thread a couple of times already, my notifications for the original iPad were horrible and didn't give me any tracking info, and yet my device showed up on schedule at the day of release.

Also for those of you worried in the US, yesterday was Columbus Day. Not sure if that really has any effect on UPS/Fed Ex.

It's at the shipper's discretion, but they SHOULD require a signature given the cost of the item. That's pretty normal. The only worry would be if you have a dumbass carrier like these guys Amazon is using now that show up to my apartment in their personal vehicles wearing mustard-stained T-shirts and thrusting my package at me when I open the door. Those guys are capable of anything.
