No one could have been surprised by anything announced. Not one thing they presented today wasn't known ahead of time. So much for the days of being surprised by their announcements. Those days are over.
While they got the majority right, there were still some definite surprises that the rumors didn't catch or got wrong:
- 64 bit iOS via A7 process
- iPhone 5C does not have a cheap off contract price
Well, you can't have your cake and eat it too. People dig and dig for every detail prior to the event and then complain when they already know everything. It's like looking for your presents before Christmas morning.
This is how it's been for the last few keynotes. The only thing they got wrong here was the pricing of the 5C, as it isn't the low cost phone it was rumored to be.
