    Siri is hands free… my guess is iPad's still are considered more visual.

     


    TouchID… I have a strong feeling that the Big iPad(s?) will get TouchID.   More often than not, as a professional mobile workstation, the stuff on my iPad is more sensitive than my iPhone (well, basically, in iCloud, it's on both;-)

    Liquid metal looks like chrome. Nothing like this.


    Disagree. It is much more greyish than chrome.


     

    In terms of color and look, Liquidmetal alloy looks like a normal metal, more like stainless steel than aluminum, albeit with its own distinct metallic color." That's Dr. Atakan Peker, one of the researchers behind Liquidmetal.

    I think of it as “Original iPhone (thanks, NeXT)”.

    No flash at all, so low light photos will be still out of the question, looks like.

    I know, right? Without the 10 trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion lumen flash bulb on the Hubble Space Telescope, we would not have those pictures of galaxies at the edge of the known universe. ;)

    No, and not every TV monitor known to man is 16:9.

    ...but it could easily be argued that adding features that encourages people to take photos with iPads is not a good thing.

    That would be a good thing, discouraging this, IMO.

    If I want to take a video of a person walking and keep that person in frame, a "portrait" video is the perfect framing for that.  It's good for lots of things.  

    People should forget about how everything "used to be" and move forward IMO.  When I see a portrait video on a widescreen display and it's awkward, the first thing I think is not "that idiot shouldn't have taken this video in portrait mode," it's ... "why can't I swing my TV around on the wall to watch this properly?"  The displays should always adapt to the content not the other way around.    

    Pulling your leg here:

    Props to you on getting unbanned, never seen that before.

    you do realise that's not real. It's just a mock up. the gold iPhone 5 doesn't look like that.

    Maybe that's because it's not an iPhone?

    Strange comment from pazuzu there; the AR of iPhone photos are 4:3. Which was kinda weird with the 3.5" phones as that was AR 2:3. Got even weirder with the 4" model. You can take a photo, review it, and zoom out to see more (with iOS7, you can't zoom out of the photo anymore; it takes you into 'Moments')

    It makes it very difficult to compose a photo, as you don't see the whole frame on the 'live' screen (it gets chopped off).
