    If you mean like the Audi RSQ, I'm all for it.

    So the Galaxy S, S2, S3, S4, and S5 are tock, tock, tock, tock, tock...
    Sounds like a disk ready to go or already is belly up... or a stuck cartridge. I hate that sound!

    Ask people shopping for a $250 music-only device to buy a $900 pocket computer? Good luck with that.

    Great concept, moronic implementation. A car that can be left stranded by a speed bump or even just a driveway with more than 1.5 degrees inclination. Not genius design there.

    The "wish we could say more" is clearly a reference to the voice control / Siri2 that will be a part of the iPhone6 and IWatch and AppleTV4. Voice integration through all of these devices for a seamless experience.

    That's not Apple discounting..those are carries.

    Without Apple's say so? I thought Apple had control over the carriers?

    Ooh that would have been a good one - 6 new models of iPhone 6 with 6" screen - or 6 colors or even flip it around and have the 9.9 above and the 6.6 as the shadow - then you could have 9.9 as the data and 6.6 as the 6" iPhone 6. 

     

    Or, we can just wait for the announcement and then watch as all the wild speculation about all the new Apple products that would take us to Mars only get us as far as the Moon, despite the competition being stuck in low Earth orbit or blown up on the launch pad, and the stock will surely plummet as Apple enters yet another period of unprecedented growth and profitability.

    People keep alluding to this and are probably right...but wouldn't it make more sense if it was, "We have a lot to say." rather than "Wish we could say more."

     

    Unless its supposed to mean, "Wish we could say more right now....just gonna have to wait for this date."

Theatre is speech ("wish we could say...") and remember the liberal arts.

     

     

    "iPlaybill.  What Garage Band did for music creation, iPlaybill will do for theatrical productions.  Now anyone can write, direct, and act in a play while at home or on the go.  Imagine the possibilities.  We think this will be our most revolutionary product ever.  And today we're announcing a partnership that we are so excited about.  We have arrangements with all the major community theaters in the United States--and we're expanding this list as fast as we can--so that you'll be able to perform your iPlaybill works in person in front of a real audience, all coordinated and paid for through your iOS device.  And with a click of a button you can make recording of your play available on iTunes immediately.  We provided this software to students at the Cupertino Junior High a days ago, and now we will witness the first live presentation the plays they produced.  Without further ado..."

    I have no idea what they're going to call them, but just to represent...this is what the lineup will look like -->

     

    4" iPhone 5sc:

    8 GB = $0

    16 GB = $99

     

    4.7" iPhone 6:

    16 GB = $199

    64 GB = $299

    128 GB = $399

     

    5.5" iPhone 6L:

    16 GB = $299

    64 GB = $399

    128 GB = $499

    That is what I was thinking - "I wish I could say more NOW, but that would ruin the surprise" 

     

    but also likely a reference to the days of Steve Jobs and his famous, "One more thing" which was often delivered as if it were an afterthought but which generally turned out to be the biggest surprise or something entirely unexpected. 

     

    But could be as simple as "Wish we could say more, but if we did, then this notice would not be in keeping with out traditional style of keeping things simple yet bold."

    The carries already payed full price for the phone. They can do pretty much what they want. They aren't going to drop the subsidized price of the iPhone 6 to $0 immediately or they'll lose money so Apple doesn't have to worry about heavy discounting. But like Tallest said..Apple does not discount the iPhone.
