have you not taken into consideration the speakers, microphones, plug? There is a lot more down there than just a home button.
Got a tip for us?

Am I the only one that dreads this time of year when all the blogs can cover nothing except every little nut and bolt of the new phone no matter how trivial.
How about some details on the Mac Pro or some great App, or the Kardashians, or anything that is actually interesting or useful!!!
Sorry, just really bored with it all already!

Oh, please God, let this happen. I don't care about the password generator, but unlocking and iTunes purchases with a fingerprint: yes, please.
I noticed this too! I am hoping we can see a 25-50% usage increase on the battery between new technology, new processor, new iOS, and extra space. They were able to get 50% increase on the MacBook Air so I am hoping they can do it here too.
no thanks on capacitive button. Capacitive button are part of what I hate about any android phones I try.
Wow, it looks so much like last years model since we cannot take the phone apart to see the guts anyway. This is very impressive flim flam. Introduce the 5S as new when in reality its so last year. Amazining.
You should check your post history. You've pissed and moaned for two years about everything... Maybe shake things up with a witty anecdote or positive comment from time to time.
As someone with an iPhone 4, I look forward to the new iPhone. Time for an upgrade.
I concur. Been waiting patiently to upgrade
As a side note, this time around, there have been very few leaks about the 5S. This probably is the best kept secret by Apple since whenever leaks started happening!

Wasn't there a leak that the battery capacity had been increased from 5.45 Whr to 5.92 Whr? Though it was suggested that is was most probably for an early prototype. Lot of things could have changed since then.
Seems really unlikely that would make the home button convex and have a fingerprint scanner. Any fingerprint scanner would require the home button to be either flat or concave. A convex finger print scanner obviously wouldn't match the shape of your finger tip and would likely have a reduced contact area (unless you press quite hard) - making it a useless shape for reading finger-prints.
If it was me, I'd change the stupid big round button into a small metal one (matching the size and shape of the power button, and also the earphone cutout). This would make the phone more symetrical top to bottom and also reduce the area needed meaning the phone could have a reduced bezel size or larger screen.

I disagree. I think he should stay true to form and whine about everything. Its makes it easier to appreciate the truly insightful comments on this blog.

Hopefully this doesn't mean there is nothing worth hiding.
Some of the rumors in the recent days said it would be exclusively used for unlocking the phone, though (at least for now).
