The 128gb 5S could come at a later date, the iPad 128 gb came later
I hope not! If it does, it will be even more money too!
Although I do want 128GB, I think I might understand that viewpoint.
I like the fact that when Apple have made capacity increases that they all just shuffle down a price point giving everyone more for their money.
In contrast, if they introduce a further 5S model, that gives them the opportunity to increase the overall pricing.
We will have to wait and see but I do not think it is that far fetched for Apple to release a 128gb 5s by Christmas.
Just a guess and it may never happen. They are cramming a lot in the 5s case as it is and with DropBox, I can do well with a 64gb iPhone, but I do like the 128gb option on my IPad.

Because I'd lose even more money!
I'm buying the 64gb as soon as it comes out, if they introduced a 128gb version a month later, then depending upon a few things I'd lose out.
If they kept the 128gb at £699 the the 64gb would instantly loose value.
If it was £799 then (if I wanted 128gb) I would then have to sell the 64gb one to buy this, again losing money.....
If it was released NOW.... Then I'd buy it.

My exact thoughts above! Shame interstella5555 doesn't think the same. It makes perfect "business" sense to increase the capacity and price.
If it becomes internally apparent that the iPhone 6 will miss ship date (for any reason) by 6+ months we could see a 128GB iPhone 5S in Q1 2014.
Otherwise they will save this for the iPhone 6 IMO.
It could be possible but I doubt a 128GB will happen till next year.
The only iPhone that got a capacity increase in the same model was the original iPhone. It was released as a 4GB and 8GB model and then in February, the 16GB was released at $599.

And if they released a 128GB it would be even more than that! like i said before
Funny how people go quiet after been proven wrong... Started all cocky too.
