iOS 7 looks... Wow.
I'm currently an owner of a HIGHLY customised, jailbroken iPhone 2G & I'm very happy with it. It's fetches my emails, plays music & makes calls just fine. However - I need iOS 7. It's exactly what I asked for & more.
It caught my eye that the iPhone 4 was supported under iOS 7. Great - so what it won't play games etc. I don't need that, I use the phone for well, phoning. I have a Nexus 7 that takes the strain of 3D games & such.
But then it came to mind that Apple are Apple & they may reserve the 'top' feature (which this year is the UI itself) for their newest devices, leaving the older phones & iPods running iOS'lite.
Do you reckon the iPhone 4 (the only A4 based device still supported) will sport the new fancy Ive UI? Or will it keep the skeuomorphic UI complete with the green felt & leather borders of yesteryear?
If the iPhone 4 doesn't get this new UI - it looks like I'll be keeping my 2G & will go on the hunt for a 5th gen iPod Touch.
