Inventory system? It looks like a service ticket system and a cr@ppy one at that.*


Can I say cr@ppy on TV Kent? On this network you can.

This is for the plans like metro pcs, pay go on ATT and whatever Verizon will have. The unlimited everything for $50 a month or so. Not the buy your own phone on ATT jus because you don't want a contract.

The top android phone on android now is a samsung with a 600mhz CPU from a few years ago. The carriers know how much data each phone uses which is why only the crappy phones are sold as unlimited now.

The iphone 4 will not require any storage, and just run from the icloud.

Dullblade, in your line of thinking, how would iCloud work with such a phone, when iCloud's Photostream is supposed to push the 1,000 latest photos to a person's iPhone? If the phone was being used in an area with poor coverage, would the user be limited to a few photos before the phone's storage is completely full? Could users carry any music with them, for when the network coverage is limited? I don't believe an iCloud dependent phone like this is likely.

Ah, give it up Spam. Just embrace the fact that we'll have two new phones. One's physically identical to the iPhone 4, but has an A5 chip, supports everybody, has a better camera for some reason, and is called the iPhone 4S.

The second has a 4.5" screen, looks like an iPod touch, has an 8MP camera, dual flashes, has an oval Home Button, and is called the iPhone 5.

May as well get it over with now.

Actually it's not Apple's call. The service plans are the carrier's choice. If they want to support prepaid, then they will and Apple will adjust if needed.

Actually, that's not true.

4.5" - so the pixel count will be higher (messing up all apps and going against one of their design credos), or resolution will go down. You really think Apple would perpetrate either blasphemy and call that their premium phone?

No storage? When a photo is captured, the image file will immediately be sent to the cloud bit by bit. Apps would have to be streamed, along with music and videos. ICloud as announced in June will have to work completely differently.

Finally, a fundamental innovation from Apple - a device which requires no storage.

Yes. Well, not the 4.5". 4" even; I got carried away there. But yes, sadly, I do believe they'd try to do that we could see these two abominations.

Best not to have any faith in Apple whatsoever before a product release. That way, when it happens, you're happily surprised at even the slightest non-failing.

What do you do when out of coverage areas? We do not have global infallible mobile phone coverage. Say you're in a foreign country where accepting the cost of data rates there would be cost prohibitive... what do you do then? Reading your post actually gave me a headache. It's not innovative without extreme mobile phone coverage and absolute reliability. Neither is in place today.

If there is an iPhone4S and and iPhone 5 then my guess is that those will be the only two versions sold and the IPhone 4 disappears completely. Apple has killed off wildly popular products before only to replace them with new ones i.e. iPod Mini replaced by iPod Nano.

Can you operate the whole 4.5'' screen one handed?
I don't need a larger screen for a phone. The iPod touch could get a bigger screen.
But the central purpose of a phone is to make a call and I don't need a bigger screen to make calls.

Kidding, I think this is just a cool AD for iPhone 5, good for Apple and AT&T!
If this is reliable then the iPhone 5 will be released Oct. 5 as rumored?

It's not reliable. Nothing is. We'll know the date when Apple releases the invites.
