Has 1GB been confirmed?

Wikipedia has an article that says so, but it was clearly written by a newb...

It will not be confirmed until Oct 14th when it goes on sale and iFixIt does a teardown.

That's what i was thinking too. :/

As far as I'm aware it's not been confirmed. I think it's very likely though.

I tend to thing that it's 512MB

I really wasn't expecting much from this iPhone, but it's seriously disappointing...

Ya I think itll be 512MB again. If it was 1gig wouldn't they have said something in the keynote?

No. Apple isn't known for announcing the RAM.

Techradar are saying 1GB. Of course they could be wrong

This post on AppleInsider says only 512MB unfortunately. If true it's yet another blow for the 4S. Android is running away from the iphone spec wise.

Who cares how much ram is in the thing? The A5 is what matters. iOS5 will run like butter on 512MB ram (it will run on the 3GS with 256) so its silly to complain if the 4S does not have 1GB of ram. That would likely be overkill.

How arrogant is it for a tech company not to reveal such a basic piece of product information?

Staying at 512 seems like a great way for them to maintain their strategy of planned obsolescence going forward. My 3G with 128MB was hobbled and obsolete within a year since it couldn't speedily run iOS 4. I really don't want to jump on a 4S and find myself in a similar bind just one year from now.

My iPad 2 runs fine on 512 - I expect the iPhone 4S will too.

As arrogant as Rolls-Royce who lists horsepower as "sufficient". It never stopped anyone from buying one of their cars.

I'm so glad you just made that analogy. My hat to you.

I will say this however, with the added functionality of Siri, if the A5 was all it needed, why only run on the iPhone 4S and not the iPad 2? I'm thinking it's going to be 1GB... But I've been wrong before... Like when I thought apple was going to blow me away earlier today...

Really hope it's 1GB.
