I think the worst thing for 'the latest and greatest Apple crowd' is that it still looks very similar to the iPhone 4 so people won't feel the need to upgrade as the new phone still looks the same!

No new technology or innovation-- Apple is done being the leader and the new team is just trying to keep up. Where are all the new 'WOW' ideas? I guess we will have to wait for the new iPad mini-- which is a 2/3 version of the current iPad with no other changes....

Why do people feel the need to identify with their choice of phone and then carry the banner of their favorite OS? Ooooh, I'm an ANDROID person! Ooooh, I'm an Apple person! It's a damn phone for God's sake, not a cult.

I'm buying an iPhone 5, and you know the biggest reason? It fits in my pocket so I don't walk around like a dork with my brick sized smart phone hanging on my hip. It also just works, no tinkering required.
