Couldn't agree more Mickey. Never understood the hate on either side of the device landscape. Use what works for you. I switched to all Apple products almost 8 years ago. I could never go back, I love them. If someone loves PC stuff, good for them, that's what you like.

There is something interesting about haters. Their comments come from a place inside that hurts them. This hurt causes them to act out and attempt to remove the individualism and personal choice that everyone has. They give away that they are haters by trying to play it off as something benign, but inside they're pushed by something dark and hateful like jealousy or lack of compassion for others.

I do think it's funny that no one knows what they're releasing next week, but they want it. I think I will pay someone to sit at the store here in the mall so I can get whatever it is they're selling first. I love my Apple products!

Careful. What is the upside? History says they might be gone in 10 years.

There are going to be some pissed off people in the stores on Tuesday when they find out that there is no more ATT subsidy on the phones and everyone will pay full whack of 699 and 499 respectively. LOLZ. That will really thin out the herd as far as buying the first day. I buy a phone a year so I don't care, I'm never under the upgrade clause. Going to be interesting.

I wonder if thats going to hurt sales and I think they are going to cost more than that.

Analysts are projecting that if next week's release isn't something good, really good, very bad things are going to happen.

Who knows. I'll stick with mutual funds.

Ahhhh FUCK! I'm standing in line and it's starting to rain.

It's going to really affect the sales in a negative way. There are lots of people waiting with iPhone 4s that have the upgrade available and think that they will get the subsidy. Going to be a tense and stressful day for the hipsters working at the Apple store next week.

What are they releasing? a watch?

no doubt they keep focusing on getting thinner and thinner. My wife is constantly charging her iphone and my note just keeps chugging along.

I think deal now is the amount of the phone spread out on 24 month of payments. it will be interesting.

(extra points for maximizing their income by promoting something else as well while sitting there). I'm pretty sure by their standards what they will be earning is considered pretty good for the amount of time they put in.

2. I applaud the people that are paying other people to wait in line to save their own time that is clearly more valuable than whatever they are paying. And in the case of people whose time isn't worth more -- as long as they can afford it, who cares? Live and let live.

3. Most companies WISH they had the trust, brand power and following that Apple has.

Any entrepreneur worth their salt will appreciate most of the above points about what's *really* happening here.

The bottom line: Consider and analyze the concept (and maybe even consider how you could use it in your businesses) instead of criticizing it without understanding it first.
I did in fact read the article. Good for them. But still people will be lining up to buy their phone, you watch.

Never do that. It is much less expensive to buy the phone outright and then just pay for the service.

While walking home, the two girls trip over what seems to be a dirty bum. It turns out to be **********, waiting in line in front of the Apple store for the release of another iphone 6 weeks later.
Had a 4 and currently have the 4S and 5S and even though I've heard those stories never broke or cracked a screen on either of the 3. I use a Holster Case though so hard for it to come loose. They were supposed to move to a Sapphire Crystal which would probably eliminate or decrease breakage.

About the battery life sucking: from what I have read there are rumors suggesting a significantly larger battery. One can only hope. I've personally not had issues but I guess it's just habitual at this point to charge it at night (iPhone 5 non S). Admittedly I probably don't use it as much as some people during the day/business hours.

Never owned an iphone and I certainly would never buy an Apple computer

Last week TK leaked out that the new iPhone could cost up to $1200 USD.
Well the latest leak out of Hong Kong seems to confirm just that. This is for the 4.7 inch model as the 5.5 inch model could cost much more.
How do you feel about an iPhone that could cost as a MacBook?

I just epassported one of them to keep my place when the new iphone is out.

I own both samsung and Apple products. I enjoy Samsung because it's more versatile. A enjoy apple because it is reliable and yes, it's good quality and good looking hardware.

But I'd never line up to buy either brand. Why do people still do this?
