Apple's Announcing A New iPhone Next Week

[smudgey]

Wasn't this story already up... like a year ago... and a year before that too. Wierd.

It's not very efficient to buy a product that costs as much as an IPhone if its going to be obsolete in a year. Its quiet an investment for a 12 month item.

You could say that about ANY phone. You seriously think Apple's competitor's won't upgrade their products next year? And what about PC components? But you know what? It doesn't matter, because....
A: No-one is forcing you to buy it.
B: Just because a newer version is released, that does not mean the older version suddenly stops working. If you're happy with the older version, then you don't have to rush out and replace it (typing this on a 3GS btw).
C: What other people spend their money on is their business, and no-one else's.

Have a nice day.

It's great how you put words into my mouth, but you really shouldn't I already had diner. I'm just saying that I don't think it's a good buy. I don't care what other people think and I'm passing judgment on it. My phone is at least 5 years old and was specifically purchase because its an unkillable brick that will last forever. My computer is 3 years old and I when I bought it I planned to have it for at least all 4 years of college. I know technology changes quickly but I'm going to make an investment of few hundred I want something that is going to last a while before need to be replaced. That's my opinion and the reason I'm not buying this phone. If you want me to post something else then your SOL because that's how I feel.

And who says it won't last? I've dropped my iphone plenty of times, being the clumsy oath that i am, and it hasn't missed a beat. I dropped my Nokia once and the backlight stopped working. It's no better or worse than any other phone on the market, yet every time there's an article about it, there's a hundred hipsters lining up to take shots at it.
By the way, if you really are in college, you might want to work on your spelling, grammer and punctuation.

What Apple doesn't want you to know is that it's buying Scrooge McDuck's vault to serve as its new headquarters.

LOL I immediately though of this when you brought up Scrooge McDuck's money vault.

Wow, how exciting! Another iPhone! Wonder if it will be the exactly same model with, maybe, neon lights on the sides, or the ability to bounce, making it unbreakable...or how about MAKE SOMETHING WE DON´T ALREADY HAVE SEVERAL VERSIONS AND COPIES OF! (Sorry for caps)
Seriously Apple; do you really think we need another iPhone?

You're clearly a troll or a Apple fanboy at this point considering you're going for the gizzard anytime I even remotely imply anything. I didn't say the phone would break I was making the implication that the phone is rapidly out of date. Here's the bottom line: I don't want an Iphone my my own reasons and you'll never convince me, end of discussion. Weather you just have an inborn need to promote the Iphone or just want to try and make me mad that's it. Also, I'm a comp. sci. major not an English major and this is an internet forum not an essay. If you expect perfect grammar and spelling then you can kiss my ass. I already spend too much time here to be carefully reviewing everything I post.

In the age we live in, ALL technology quickly becomes outdated. Phones, gaming consoles, PCs, TVs.... you name it, everything that's new quickly becomes old. My TV was worth around $1500 2 years ago. Now, a similar spec model can be picked up for around $500. It's the way things are today, and it's not a problem that's exclusive to one product/company. So quit whinging about it.

Now, i can understand that you may not want an iphone, and i'm not trying to convince you to buy one. Buy what you want, it's your money. But if you don't want the phone, or don't care about it, why waste your time on an internet forum slagging it? And you call me the troll?
