Once the 4S was announced, the stock started to fall. INSANE how quickly its going!

Let's hope for the bang at the end that will shoot it back UP!!! :D
 
3% is not plummeting.... It is to be expected for this kind of presentation.

Apple's stock will rebound in the next day or two and be up.
 
Gotcha. I've never watched the stock during an event before.

And now Siri has been officially announced. It's slowly coming back up. This is very educational for me.
 
It deserves to fall. They blew it. 16 months for nothing but a mild upgrade.

....and now they are talking about Assistant. Look, if I wanted to look like a moron in public I could just buy a bluetooth headset. But now I could also buy an iPhone 4S and walk around talking to my phone all day.

...that made me laugh :p

I dont think it would be all that weird to talk to a cell phone.. but thats just me :confused:
 
It will really plummet if there is not a last-minute iPhone 5 announcement. Market is holding out for that.
 
Priceless

I just wish that while demonstrating Siri, he would have asked how APPL was doing today instead of the NASDAQ.
 
Assistant looks cool and all but I doubt I'll use it very often. The same went for Facetime really, it's more of a weekly thing than an every day tool. *sigh*

Ikr? Too bad, maybe he would've gotten the message to go away.
 
The voice recognition of Siri better be better than the current Voice Control...cause it sucks. Tried it the day I got my 4 last year, and it never worked right. Would say "call home", and it would start playing music. I don't have an accent or anything.

I haven't used it since.
 
No redesign.
No bigger screen.
No LTE, WiMax.
No HSPA+, even.
for 16 months. :mad:

Well. You get a:
• Fixed antenna (yay!)
• Better camera (meh)
• Voice actions -er I mean Siri (yay)

Is the talk time longer or the same as the 4?

Same here. And I won't pay like a few hundred dollars just be able to talk to my phone...

A combined GSM and CDMA phone is also huge. For me anyway.

It's especially big for Apple as they don't have to keep separate SKUs for the different versions anymore.
 
I was gonna buy it for dev stuff but since it's only A5 inside then it can be tested on iPad 2 already.

Was hoping for more to be honest... Let's see how it ends...
 
What a let down, it's iPhone4 with a new antenna and a few little tweaks. Great, least the greeting cards thing is new
 
Apple stock slowly creeping back up. Either it's investor speculation or someone knows something.
