Yawn.
Again.
Don't be too melodramatic - AAPL's only dropped $50 from its peak in the last 30 days....

Do you really care if Apple's hand-picked small audience smacks their hands together during the keynote?
The interwebs are doing a giant, collective yawn over the announcement.
The actual buying public cares very little about whatever unicorns the “interwebs” expected to appear today: they were already snapping up the iPhone 3GS as the second-best selling smartphone (after the iPhone 4).
It’s a very small collective yawn
About a phone with tons of new features and specs... in the same shape. The last shape lasted 2 years, and now this shape has too. It’s just a shape. And a great one compared to all the thick bricks out there that somehow still don’t get any appreciable battery life!
Well, yes I do. As you put it, "The interwebs are doing a giant, collective yawn over the announcement" and I'd like to see the reaction of those there as well. Considering the huge cheers and reactions of some previous years, I'm interested in the comparison. Plus the initial reaction is never a true guide anyway. Look at the iPad. Just a big iPod touch was the first reaction. Now look at it.
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooo."
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooo."
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooo."
The Iphone 4 white or the Iphone 4 black - which was 1st and which was 3rd (or lower)?
Seems like the news is out so I'll wait for iTunes to automatically download it and watch it when I'm doing something boring... like folding laundry.
Anyone know how long before they typically put these videos on the podcast feed, so that I can watch on my 
TV?
TV?There has been "voice control" of cellphones for several years. But its never worked well enough, or reliably enough, or intuitively enough for Apple to build it into their OS. That has obviously changed.
One of two things has happened: Either Apple has figured out a way that 90% of normal human beings can easily use voice commands to control a big chunk of what they use phones/tablets/computers for. Or they are full of b/s. (I'd bet on the former.)
Apple Assistant is going to be huge. Sprint committing to buying 30 million iPhones over the next four years is huge. iCloud is going to be huge.
The thing with the greeting cards? Not so much. But cute anyway.
You heard it here first.

You sound like a 2012 believer, seriously, I'm disappointed by the iPhone 4S too, but this definitively isn't the end of Apple.

It's not Tim's fault that the Iphone 4GS is a turkey.
Even if the turtlenecked overlord himself had delivered the keynote the collective reaction would still have been "huh?".
unimpressive new ceo and a disappointing new phone...
This was Tim Cooks chance to WOW those who had doubts about him and to impress those who faithfully waited for a new iPhone.. instead.. an unimpressive new ceo presented an equally disappointing phone.. This blows..
