Intime for upgrade, just got to wait til November 

Shame it weren't the 5, that must be next years upgrade

Or simply visit www.apple.com, or any of the other million technology based websites on the Internet

I hate apple for these crappy interim updates. Squeezing every last penny.

A new case and they could have called it a 5.

Apple store back up £499

All i wanted was a new case, the function was perfect with the 4, don't need any more power.

Share price has dropped 4% and still going, a bad move from Apple is a rare one but judging by my Facebook stream there are a lot of disappointed people out there!!

That's a shame, I was expecting some better tbh. I went from 3G to 4, so 4 to 5 in 12m lloks more likely

If they improve the screen on the ipad I'll jump the 2 as well 

[MarkMarked]

Looks like the same sort of speed bump/extra capacity  that the 3G to the 3GS had

Looks like Apple are only doing major updates to the physical appearance every two years

SIRI looks pretty impressive along with the improved camera

Just waiting for the 4S to be jailbroken before I upgrade my 4 with a capacity increase

Same spec as my Sensation, pretty dissapointed to be honest! In fact without a proper look, it might be worse than my HTC! Plus it won't run half the software that this will, used to be a huge apple fan but the 4 let me down!

Well chuffed, love my iPhone 4 and have had it since launch day so more than happy to stick with it and update the software in a few weeks! 

[Britishlion]

Does anyone know.. 


A 7th October pre order date , does that mean I need to wait up until 0001 on the 7th to do it , or can it be anytime on the 7th ?



Cheers

[vRS Carl]

Anytime on the 7th. The earlier the better though.

Just do what i'm doing, walking into an Apple Store on the 14th and buying one

[Greeners]

Do we know what the software update will add to the 4?
