    I've been a professional Apple service guy for about 15 years now, so I live, eat, and breathe this stuff. It was exactly what I expected, and I will be changing up from the iPhone 4 to the 4S for Siri alone.

    The only thing I love more than my iPhone, is my MINI. Well, and the girlfriend, I suppose. Maybe my cats.

    I'm not disappointed with the 4S, however my 4 is less than a year old so I'm not feeling the need to upgrade.

    What I don't understand is why people are getting po'd because Apple chose to upgrade an existing model rather than roll out a new model. Those people must be incensed at all the car companies!! How long has Chevy been nursing that old 'vette model? or Ford and their mustang? I'll cut MINI a break since they've only been making 'em for 10 years.

    I also don't understand why droid users have to bash the iPhone - just use what you like. It's like they have to bash it to validate their choice. Makes no sense.

    I heartily agree, but this isn't new. For years the most ultra-ardent of Apple fans have bashed products made by competing companies and looked disdainfully down their noses at anyone who used them. Same story in my book and I've never understood that either.

    Hope you guys aren't talking about me? Like I said, I have had iphones from the beginning, but have weighed the options and a droid came out the winner this time. Simple as that.

    Nope - it's not you - you said you switched and that's fine - saw no bashing in your post. It was just a general comment on how some people react to choices that others make.

    Just ordered my iPhone 4S 16GB in Black.

    Hopefully will be here next Friday.

    Anyone want to buy an iPhone 3GS?

    The good thing about this for me, is the iPhone 4 just went down in price by $99.00. From what I have read here, I can stay just behind the cutting edge and be fine. :lol:

    Riding the trough of the wave, instead of the crest?

    I need some advice from you folks in the know out there. I can up grade my phone early, so I plan to do that. I am going with the iPhone 4, but don't know if I should get the 16 or if the 8 would work. What is the big difference in what one will do that the other one will not?
