Tired of waiting for the iPhone 5.

I have to know - what emotions do your girlfriends cooking attempts inspire? Amazement? Fear?

Forgot all about this thread...my bad. But to answer your question, "Amazement" but not in the joyfull way as we normally tend to connect Amazement with. It's like Amazement in the form of: What the hell is this? followed by expressions of hurt, disappointment and sickness after eating it. All of this even after installing Jamie Oliver's cooking App on her iPhone. Just joking, once in a while she makes really delicious food :)
 
I don't think the 4 will be 'long outdated' by this time next year..the 3gs is still a good phone to use and it has been out for 2 years and it will run iOS 5 (sufficiently as some videos has shown).

The 3gs is becoming a bit out dated now though but will still be supported by apple with iOS 5. The iPhone 4 will follow the same story with iOS 6 (or what ever apple calls the OS)

Wrong choise of words from my side, you're totally right at that point in time it's still a very usable device. I mend more like in a greedish way it's not up to date in comparison with the 5, something like that :)
 
I bought a refurbished iPhone 4 in June, it was a great purchase. After changing from a dumbphone, there's not much I need from a slightly faster iPhone 5.

I know Apple will sell as much 4's as possible but can't they break the rumors by giving a slight hint about the final releasedate, the whole Techworld is going bezerk on the next iPhone with blogwriters like Mark Gurman throwing oil in the fire...c'mon give us something concrete!

Isn't that good? If you can't wait, then you should just go and get a Blackberry or Nokia. No hyped-up announcements. New devices are just new devices. Full-stop.
 
Every time I read this thread topic it sounds like the start of a infomercial. I'm sick of waiting too though.
 
If it doesn't have 4G I'm buying a Droid Charge! Might as well use the unlimited Data that I have to tether at extremely fast speeds... :D

Umm, why are people crying over the release date? It will be announced in September and released early October. Fact.

Rumour is greater than fact? You mean "Rumour <> Fact", or "Rumor != Fact"...:rolleyes:

iPhone 5 will be released early October at the latest.

People were saying the summer based on previous releases with no evidence. There has been plenty of evidence and even a statement from Apple in their quarterly earnings call to support the sept / oct release.

Then again perhaps there isn't any problems. Nothing but Apple taking their time and exerting their influence. That's an even better scenario.

IF they didn't release it during their normal release schedule something must of came up for them to delay it.. Hardware or software wise something came up and I'm willing to bet that if they released it something would be missing or not working the way they want it..

That's the thing they were assuming it would come out then.. Even sept/oct could be false in anything can happen to push the release date back further.. Doesn't matter much to me because it s just a phone and not the most important thing in my life.. But I don't understand this phone could be the most important to some people that rely on it for their business or a doctor or whatever...

Apple operates at their own pace, that's to be expected. It's well documented they never deviate. I'm sure they will release it in due time. Apple is very confident, they know people will wait as long as it takes. Its part of the Apple experience.
 
i got hobbies to get my mind off it:D dont worry its coming soon..only thing i will get tired is waiting for it to come to my door tracking its every move
 
Anybody tired of waiting for iPhone 5 are more than welcome to go and get an Android device. No? Quit moaning then... :rolleyes:

I'm eager to have an iPhone since I don't own a smartphone at all. And never ever I would buy an Android device, I simply think they are crap in comparison to the iPhone.

If I want I can run to the store today and buy the 4 but no no....I will wait and wait till the 5 comes out.
 
I find it odd when most people complain about how Apple releases an iPhone every year, and that they release it too quick. However, now you have people who say that iPhone releases are becoming too slow....

Seriously??? :(
 
October is the best period to get a new phone anyway, either it's android iOS or w7 phone. So be patient and enjoy either your nexus prime, iPhone 4s or nokia mango phone!

Interesting that you have never owned a smartphone yet you seem so knowledgeable on how good or bad their respective hardware and operating systems compare... :rolleyes: Bit of a fanboy eh?

Wait...do we have one of those "I have plenty of spare cash" posts here too? Yup, would appear so.
 
hey, so far, looking back in the past, all the waiting has been worth it.. consider this: the more you wait, the better it will be.
