this is the 4GS effectively - as the normal iPhone 4 is the iphone 4 GSM

The next one is the iPhone 5 - but there is no news today at the live apple event! :cry:

The stock market isn't so sure:

Despite Apple's protestations that the iPhone 4S is revolutionary, it looks like the markets were hoping for an iPhone 5. Apple stock is currently down more almost 2 per cent, while the Dow Jones is down 1.1 per cent.

Give it a month or so.

Why don;t apple just release the best phone they can possibly make instead of constantly releasing new devices every couple of months? I don't know about you but when i buy a phone i want it to feel special but with an iPhone you know that two months or so down the line a new one will be released and your device will be made to look like shit.

I've had an iPhone from day one but next year i'm going and getting the galaxy S2.

It went on a decline when Steve Jobs went - dont read too much into that - the iphone 5 will still be released soon IMO - I heard end of the month!

but the iPhone 4s has some really good improvements - as I posted in the link.

No you wont - because I heard a rumour that it is being made obsolete - due to the implications of Apples patents - that they decided to break! Anyone with an S2 now should wrap it up and put it in a airtight box ready for the antique road show in 50yrs time.....

My iphone 4 is still a top phone! I dont care what comes out ;)

I think buying an apple phone/product, is like buying a new ford car got the new shape for about 6 months and feel different then they change the shape again just to keep you changing to keep up

The 4 is now an obsolete product as a better model has been announced.

The S2 won't go away, it may be redesigned but it wont be taken from shelves.

Well the announcements over, I'm really disappointed. Been out of contract for months waiting for the new IPhone, I bet android can out do this device fairly easily within a month or two

The markets have confirmed their disappointment. Apple shares are now trading down 3.6 per cent, at $360.78.

What about when the S3 comes out? Oh, no wait - it wont will it......... So I guess Samsung may develop a new phone.... but when ? are they waiting for apple to release the iphone 5? or will they compete against the 4s ? If they wait too long they'll miss the christmas market?

No other company has the shocking release rate that apples does, it seems they care just a little more about the money they make rather than the people they make for.

It's been 16 months since the iPhone 4 was released. I would say that was quite a long time in terms of phone technology.

Don't see the problem really, apart from the fact most contracts are now 18 months!

Surely they wouldn't be that stupid though?

People have been waiting for this release for months and there will be a huge amount of people taking out new contracts to get one.

Imagine the backlash if they released another phone within a month.

I think it'll be a while before the iPhone 5.

Hmmmm

Not being a phone buff. It feels like Apple are the mobile phone version of Sky TV

Seems pointless getting an up to date iphone if they keep tweaking and fiddling just
to get a few more billion in

High-tech con artists methinks

I thought businesses were all about profits and making money? They only have to show a small amount of consideration for their customers - but thats enough to be Richer than the American government..... personally as long as I have a good phone - I dont care - they can bring out as many as they like!

Times change, technology moves on at a rapid rate - why get stuck in the past and grow long in the tooth as rivals pass you by? Best to stay ahead of the market.....

ipod nano 7th Gen available RIGHT NOW to order, iOS5 out on 12th Oct - as well as iCloud - iPod touch 5th gen soon too also now in White.

Here are the new pricing details on contract.
■iPhone 3GS Free on contract
■iPhone 4 8GB $99 (£65)
■iPhone 4S 16 GB $199 (£130)
■iPhone 4S 32 GB $299 (£195)
■iPhone 4S 64 GB $399 (£260)

Bit pricy mind for a contract phone! :?

The Samsung Galaxy SII has already obseleted itself, in Korea it now has a dual core 1.5gHz processor and a 1280x760 screen - that's a higher Res than the iPhone. Besides, the galaxy has a superior operating system to the iPhone.
