so......looks like the rumor was true..100% true.

Yup. I'm a man of my word; I was 1,000% wrong. You guys were right :)

I am tagging you just to tell you that the iphone 6 looks exactly like the chinese dude show in the video. As many ppl told you, if an device can show such kind of detail running IOS 8 on a video, it can't be fake. At most it is not a production product.

I know, I watched the event. You guys were right. Sorry for being so adamant :(

Hey, how does that crow taste? LOL

Not that bad. It's still a great phone, and now I know who to unfollow on Twitter for Apple rumors :)
 
I sincerely hope you're right about the protruding lens being for some sort of accessory. But really, I think Johnny Ive's obsession with making everything as thin as humanly possible has finally gone too far. The phone will be annoyingly unstable when used on a table (unless you use a case). Do you really think anyone would have cared if they had made the phone a bit thicker to allow the camera to be flush? I would much rather have had the better battery life a thicker chassis would have allowed.

Of course, I am totally fine with the thickness of the current 5/5S chasis (and really the 4/4S before it)...

Wow that was an unnecessarily vicious response. I wasn't attacking you (or anyone else) in my post. If you'd rather have the thinner phone with the protruding camera instead of increased battery capacity, that's your preference and I respect that.

Two questions for you: first how would wanting an iPhone with better battery life have "ruined" it? Second, are you really claiming that the current 5/5S design, which is only a few tenths of a mm thicker that the newly announced 6 chasis, is uncomfortable to hold?
The next time you aren't attacking anyone, I'd recommend you avoid the word "obsession". That's the word I used, and you seemed to think I was attacking you.
 
You're alright by me, man :)

Just...remember this for the next one :)

...yeah...because you used the phrase "your obsession" (multiple times referring to me) and accused me of wanting to ruin the iPhone (a rather ridiculous hyperbole). Not sure how to take that except as a personal attack...

[edit] Also, the original post you were quoting was in response to someone else and was in no way attacking that person. Why on earth did you feel the need to jump in and start an argument?

You used the word first. Please take it in the spirit in which you used it. I didn't mean any more by it than you did.
