The S is actually for Siri
Could S = Steve ?
The last phone that was created and designed under his watch as CEO so call it 4S as a tribute to him ?
The S is actually for Siri
iPhone 4S - Sprint exclusive, A4 processor, same hardware as the iPhone 4, redesigned tapered case, 4" screen with lower PPI than the retina display, thus cheaper, low cost option.
iPhone 5 - iPhone 4 look-alike with A5 processor, better camera, 3.5" screen, and all the new gizmos we expect every year from Apple, available to all carriers.
That's my bet.
You bet wrong. Why would they make an inferior device for Sprint? That would cost more not less.

As others have Said. I have a true partnership. I am married, kids, joint mortgage, shared bills. So yes when spending several hundred pounds out of "our" money it is right we discuss these things. Clearly you have a different personal situation. That does not make me pathetic.
I think apple's successfully tricked us all. All this 4S hullabaloo the past few months is just Apple toying with our rumor reading minds as payback to the lost iPhone 4 that was found oh so long ago.
- You don't wait 16 months for just a speed bump.
- You don't let your iconic ceo step down and have you're replacement, which everyone in the tech industry will be harshly judging, launch your next, and most anticipated product being only a speed bump.
- You don't release iOS 5 and iTunes 10.5 with a product named 4S.
They also need to redesign it just to shut people up about the antenna. If it has the same form factor everyones just gonna be complaining about their cell reception when the thing comes out regardless if there's a problem or not.
Anyway, I bet those at Apple are just grinning thinking about how well they have kept this thing under wraps, and can't wait to hear Cook say up on stage "one more thing..."
This is just so funny.
I am 99.99% sure that Steve will be doing some if not leading the keynote today so I would certainly be screaming with delight if Steve unveils a surprise iPhone 5
Ooops....
Don't blame Steve distancing himself from last night, he is either in a very bad way or he knew last night was going to be a train wreck and decided to stay well away
