"way back in AUGUST". Apple has had the iPhones being made since January. I seriously doubt they saw Samsung's god S4 a month ago and said OMG! Lets make one too! Apple has had these in the works for almost a year, sorry.
Got a tip for us?

I think by modern he was going back to the original iPhone. Which still seems dis-genuine to me anyway as per other posts in this thread.
I'm GLAD they stole some elements from the Palm/HP WebOS. Tons of other people have ripped off the card style representation of active apps and its one of the best things the webOS had going for it. I am much happier simply flicking the apps out of the scrolling card view off the page to shut them down. It's a much more logical approach to handling tasks, IMO.
PalmOS3 and Android 2.5, however, I don't see in this setup. If you'd like to explain EXACTLY what they took from those, I'll be happy to respond.
You missed how Samsung went into making a smart watch, right after the iWatch rumors.
The iWatch Apple has yet to announce? The smartwatches that Sony was first to market with before the iwatch rumors?
Didn't see this one coming.Wonder if it'll be a subtle gold or actual gold color.
I think they will one-up Apple... it'll be an 18K tone as opposed to Apple's 10k gold.
What is this? The bling bling era of the tech industry?

Holy hell, save the memes for Reddit. Also the champagne iPhone 5S is not even gold gold.

I believe the product pipeline is an accurate descriptor for this. I mean, they couldn't possibly develop that thing for 6 months.
Also, is a product pipeline ONLY applicable to Apple? Because I rarely hear "Apple did x because y did so" even though they did.
Now I found an article that Apple is/had developed(-ing) an "iGlass" that is similar in premise to Google Glass since 2006 and the only revealed this after the Explorer Edition came out.
Source.
Not to mention that Samung released in the summer the Samsung Galaxy GOLDEN so gold is nothing new but to Apple fans.
Except Apple made up iWatch rumors to see who will copy first. Sony actually came out with iWatch first.
Plus, how does a "gold" colour option scream innovation? It only implies no other company had produced a gold-coloured electronic device.
You can buy an (overly) expensive golden-encrusted iPhone right now and those options are already there prior to the iPhone 5S albeit not affordable for the general public.

It almost sounds as though people who keep saying this thinks samsung is actually designing the processors. Apple designs them samsung is the manufacture thats it lol, Samsung has no say on what is actually in the chip, Apple makes it. I don't know why its a big deal, so what if Samsung makes a gold phone. Everyone copies everyone it's why we have choice. I'd rather apple copy android and we get great features, or windows phone or web os. As long as these OS's keep improving and getting better with each iteration, who cares
