Knowing the state of NAND flash storage capacities vs speeds, I would not order the 128GB option. At most, I'd stick at 64GB, given that single 64GB NAND chips have gotten faster reads/writes.

I'm having a hard time believing anything Kuo has to say after his other predictions this year...

The parts have already been leaking, so it's pretty much a sure thing. But it's not GOLD gold rather the "champagne" color that is mentioned in the article. Very subdued, like a tint of gold on silver, not garish. I could see it being very, very popular.

Yeah you're right . I could see the champagne color . Like someone said it before , won't judge until I see it ! I remember most of us when the two tone iphone 5 parts were leaking everyone was losing their minds (joker voice lol) saying that was the ugliest thing, and what happened on pre order day ? Sold out in two mins ??? Lmao

Celebritiies will go crazy with gold.
Rappers will forget the existence of the other colours immediately as well.

So that probably means:

On contract
5C - 8GB $99
5C - 16GB $199
5C - 32GB $299

Then, if you want a fingerprint reader
5S - 32GB $399
5S - 64GB $499
5S - 128GB $599

I don't get why everyone is screaming, "No gold, please!"

Buy the white or black one. No one will force you to buy the gold one. Besides, we haven't even seen what it'll look like.

Well, I mean if it progresses technology then im all for it, 128gb will probably be more expensive but in coming years it will become a base model and competitors will also upgrade their capacity etc. good move 

Care to elaborate or post a link? I'm genuinely curious.

This is such a great idea. Apple responding to the continued need of it's customers for more space. And gold is a great color too! :apple:

Dual-core or quad-core? That's what I want to know...

Why does it matter how many cores it has? There are so many better things to worry about than how many cores it has.

Four cores doesn't automatically make it better than two until there are worthwhile reasons for the OS to take advantage of the extra resources.

32/64/128 sound GREAT!!

As for gold and being big sellers in Dubai and for Celebs as noted here...I'd think they'd want REAL GOLD.
