    Make your mind up, why don't you. Are you a woman?

    Yep, me too. I hope they release a 4k iMac as well with a 30"+ screen, perhaps called the iMac Plus.

    Apology accepted. Thank you. 

     

    Although I'm not buying the "jesting" bit, that's a lie.  The comment was made with a large degree of hatred. 

     

    To clarify, here's an example of a jest: Just make sure if you shoot yourself, you give me your Apple products first ;)

    Non-jest: Please just shoot yourself now, and do us all a favor. 

     

    See the difference? 


     

    I probably shouldn’t get involved, but I would say that it was a malicious jest, and you were right to feel aggrieved. At least he's apologised.

    Anger management needed?

    I wonder where Sog35 is. He should be here to claim the winning bet...or he doesn't want anymore leak ahead of the keynote, but will be back tomorrow and jump all over the places, lol. Maybe, I'll be just an audience in AI for the next 3 months or he will.

    There's been a new "The 5.5 iPhone may or may not be coming" story almost every DAY for the past year. Maybe that has not bothered some of you, but I find it pretty damn ridiculous to publish yet ANOTHER one, that has no more merit than the rest, on the day before all this is going to be confirmed for good. So yeah, I think my annoyance is warranted.

    Imagine if they didn't introduce the 5.5" tomorrow? Then we could have months of more speculation as to whether or not a 5.5" was coming later; music to your ears! <img class=" src="http://forums-files.appleinsider.com/images/smilies//lol.gif" />

    But I'm a nice guy.

    So all the people who lost the bet with me are forgiven.  You don't have to self ban yourself.  Go post away.  Just remember next time that when I say something I'm usually right.

    You've lost the bet.

    There is no 5.5" iPhone. There is a 4" iPhone.

    Why? The iPhone camera still produces some of the best images on any phone.

    Looks like this has come from China Mobile:
    https://www.hn.10086.cn/service/promotion/all/content_20981002.html

    Via ATRL.net:
    http://atrl.net/forums/showthread.php?t=673884

    I'm guessing the latter is a translation of the former, but I don't read Chinese, so can't swear to it. There may be another source for the English version, but this is the only one found by a quick Google.

    Can't say I'm completely convinced. Something doesn't quite seem right.

    The fact that the images they used are renders that have been around for months, maybe?

    That's part of it. Also the specs look like they've been compiled from the most hopeful predictions, with nothing really unexpected. I'd have thought something would show up that no-one was really expecting.

    Plus, would you really expect both 4.7 & 5.5 to have the same battery?
