Agreed. Apple nailed this one. There is a huge untapped market for this phone. IMO, 30% of iPhone Market Share within 15m. People who constantly dismiss the market for this phone simply do not understand the target consumer.
I'm not sure "untapped" is the right word. Perhaps "abandoned"? I mean Apple owned this market until it closed shop in the middle of the night and left for 4.7 and 5.5ville. Now it's eating its chips and admitting it screwed up screwing over its 4" faithful.
Personally I've moved on and have grown accustom to the 4.7". But I'm not sure why anyone is grousing that another size option will be available. More sizes = more happy customers = continued high industry support for all of iOS. How is that a bad thing?

It's not an obsession it's a necessity. Where else are we going to put it if we aren't wearing a coat or jacket? That is my preferred holding area. Going to work we can put it in our briefcase or backpack but that is one event. But most men (at least in the U.S) do not tote a bag outside work -- for reference watch: the infamous "man purse" Friends episode.
Yep, I'm in the perfect position where I want an ultraportable laptop as my main computer because all my heavy stuff is done on a side computer. The 12" MB is literally perfect for this.
What makes you think they will talk about FBI? In fact they may not be able too in relation to the specific case.
Not interested in anything, except (desktop) computers. But since there will be none ...
I am looking to upgrade my 2013 MacBook Air and AirPort Extreme 6th gen so I hope both those things are updated this week.
Your third point: not everyone want a single language on their phones, instead that you could change it to increase the storage on new phones because 16 gigabytes are a joke

Yup, if it is only one or two time units (day, week, month) away, I wouldn't use 'next' or 'last'. But crossing a marker might also be relevant, at the moment 'last December' for me means December 2015; 'last January' doesn't quite work either way (ie, I wouldn't use it for either January 2015 or January 2016), 'January' at the moment would mean January 2016.

Apple didn't own the 4" market before 2012 (they had no 4" phone before that). And they also 'abandoned' the 3.5" market but strangely enough, I haven't heard anybody recently complaining about this. I also think that from September 2014 until September 2015, the vast majority of 4" fans were quite OK with the 5s.

And should come with a real file system.
You are an idiot. I'm just pointing out facts, who said anything about a boycott?
Does anyone think we'll see the release of the lineup of OS updates (OSX, iOS, WatchOS, TVOS) immediately following the event?
I know, that would make sense, right?
Maybe it's a thing about quick access for those who text a lot.
My youngest daughter is 13 and she and all her friends carry no bags, and keep their iPhones in their back jean pockets (which are of course the only pockets they have). Yes, most have cracked screens, as all us Dads have stopped paying to fix them. It doesn't seem to bother them at all.
For that matter, her married step-sister at 30+ and her friends often keep their bigger Galaxies in a back pocket, although those devices seem to be thin and curved and possibly able to flex enough to take the stress without breaking.
You forgot to mention that their shirts are untucked and none of them wear a decent pair of shoes.
Pretty racist comment isn't it?
Just imagine the feedback if someone said those demographic kinda comments about say the MOBO awards?

If that were the case they wouldn't be holding the event at their campus, they would of chosen a bigger event for it where they could invite many more people. What we are likely to see tomorrow is a small update of products like the mentioned iPhone SE, iPad Pro and Apple Watch bands, before WWDC in June and then a September event where the iPhone 7 will be unvailed along with a possible Apple Watch 2. Obviously this is not set in stone but going by Apple's previous trend.
You do realize that Apple hasn't actually announced what the presentation will be about, right? This list is conjecture based from this website...called Mac Rumors....
No, the easiest solution is to say "this very coming up Monday, March 21, in the common era year 2016".
Or "Monday" works, too.
Just was thinking. There hasn't even been a golden master version of the latest ios version. Guess it won't be released tomorrow. Honestly, I have not been following updates in general lately. Other than the flux like feature, sync mult watches and school device account type feature. I don't know what if anything is supposedly a big new feature.
I think that the iPhone SE will be an extension of the currently line of iPhones, and should not be considered as an entry level. If the phone costs over $400 it is not an entry level phone. An entry level phone would cost under $200.
