Curious to know which feature people are most excited about with the iPhone 4S. I'm kinda torn between the A5 chip and the camera (I take lots of photos).

What about you?
 
Hav used a Galaxy S2 and to me the number one improvement will be the faster processor. I could not believe how much a more powerful processor enhances the user experience. the rest of the new feature will just be gravy!

Let Friday come quickly!:)
 
Camera is easily my top feature.


I also am looking forward to the same speed boost that I saw from the ipad to ipad 2.
 
Sorry guys, meant to add this as a poll. I've updated it. If I'm missing something obvious (it's still early for me), let me know. Thanks!
 
Camera and 1080p video + built in stabilizer for video :).
Of course 64GB are useful for guys like me who use the cam+video every day.
 
I like all the new features. But in this order I think: new camera, better CPU and GPU, Siri and 1080p videos.
Greater storage doesn't matter, I bought the 16GB.
 
I've been using the camera in my 3GS for some basic work stuff. Unfortunately the pictures the 3GS takes indoors are pretty awful. I'm expecting the new 4S camera to really improve things.
 
Honestly, most excited about the camera. I'm coming over from a crappy 3G camera, and only one of them, so that's by far and away the biggest change. Coming over from 3G, this is really all exciting though.

What do I think is the most important thing Apple has done though? Siri, by far. Just as Apple is bringing us into a sci fi world of digital paper and Star Trek PADDs with the iPad, Apple is also now bringing us into real human-computer speech interaction. Anybody can memorize a set of phrases that their computer can understand, but Siri is taking things a bit further with actual understanding of meaning, not just the words. This technology will only get better.
 
It's soft-of sad that Apple sticked with the 512 mb ram in the 4S. I was hoping for 1GB or more. But hey, I picked the A5 because it's fast! :D

Why is the camera such a sought after upgrade? How large were the prints you were making from your previus iPhone?

I don't think anyone really cares about the megapixels. It is the claimed camera speed increase, low light performance and color reproduction. Also, 1080p video and stabilization could be prety huge.
 
Hard to limit it to one but to answer I'll say the camera. I take a ton of pictures
 
A5, and the camera. In that order. And the option to finally get the white one from the get go, yet I'm rather skeptical about it.
