And this is why the CPU spec, memory spec, etc is somewhat misleading when comparing handset vs handset.

It depends on the software....

People who are all "omg omg omg quad core omg!" are somewhat missing the point...

Of course, that doesn't mean the current leadership is going to follow all (or any) of those ideas.

The main legacy that Jobs left, and which Cook seems to keep going, was Apple's method of an odd/even upgrade progression: new case one year, slight improvements the next year, with one big bang feature that required upgrading to the new model.

Personally I hope that one of the new products in the pipeline is an Apple smartwatch.

These BUT im curious they will continue the "S" trend in regards of small/only spec bumps.
