yeah they missed a huge opportunity... what were they thinking??? I mean they only sold 9 million iPhones over the weekend... but man, they missed out huge. So many people are obviously furious about not having a new display that nobody is buying the new phone. Yet somehow apple managed to sell 9 million of them.... but ya, people are really agitated about not having the new IGZO display, apple really missed the mark here.
People are unreal... just because some tech nerd on a website wishes apple added a feature, does not mean they missed the mark. I'm pretty sure the 5S broke a lot of sales records, so for you to call it a big miss and huge disappointment is a bit ignorant to be honest.
It's a shame that it has taken apple so long to get where???
I'm sure apple is soooo worried about Microsoft and their 3% market share! Obviously if you look at sales, I don't think a lot of people are holding out on the latest Samsung and Apple phones in favor of "waiting for a better product" like you claim. The new nokia might have a better camera, but how many people are waiting in line to pick that phone up??? Ya none.

and if you read the article, it has nothing to do with whether or not the iPad will come with a retina display. The article is about whether the new mini will release at the same time as the next full size iPad or whether apple will release each at a different time. In fact, the article specifically states that
"it is estimated that Apple's Asia-based supply chain of manufacturers have begun the start of Retina iPad mini display production, but have not entered a mass production stage of the upcoming tablet."
So I don't know why people are wasting their time arguing that apple is blowing it, and they are so far behind the competition because they aren't going to have a retina display when the article says nothing to corroborate that, and in fact is the complete opposite. People these days, read a headline and think that they know what an entire article is about... Sad to be honest.
