Exactly. I personally can suffice with somewhat old technology, but after a certain point I just need to update. Usually every 1-2 years I update phones. Just depends on so many different variables.
What exactly did 9to5mac say that made it seem reasonable? I can't seem to find any post on such a topic.
You people need to calm down. It's a phone for Christ's sake. Don't you have other things to focus on while you wait for your precious iPhone?
If you don't like it, I'll just quote you from one of your previous posts:
That same User "Experience"(spell-checked that for you
) is exactly why people get every iteration of iPhone.Surely you might be able to understand that.

9to5 worked backwards from what they think the release date will be(10/7). They used examples of past iPhone releases, and apples consistency in product releases(obviously this one is a bit dif with the delay of release and all) They made it sound better than I could, but I haven't been able to find the story again. It's all conjecture obviously, but fun to discuss.

I'd bet he's just another MR lurker and just reiterated our bets.
Or he just copied my theories pretty much.
Cult of Mac posted the same theories also, weird. The problem is that they omitted why they decided on those dates, whereas my theories explain why.
Problem is that all these theories are based on Oct-7 release date.. which is not a lot more than a rumor.
Ummm... if you care so little why are you here in the first place? This board is dedicated to iPhone discussion.
Fair enough, but comparison to the competition is good. If there are threads solely to discuss Android/Nokia/WP7 then they should be closed (report them to mods with a reason) but if it's a thread discussing the difference between the iPhone 4 and the Galaxy S 2 (and not just focused on the GS2) then I see no problem with it.
EDIT: The reason there is comparison with these devices is that there are no other iOS phones to compare it too. With Android/WP7, you can compare a flagship phone to other brands, but not so in the case of Apple. People like comparisons to give measurements some perspective.
How sad. You know what would make you feel better? A brand new iPhone 5 that has a built in sadness sensor design to deliver hugs when the owner needs it most. It's revolutionary! It's...magical!
