To Buy Or Not To Buy

I wonder if any other Apple fans are as disappointed as I am over Apple's announcement last night about the new iPhone 4S? I'm kind of bummed out. I wanted an iPhone 5. A couple of features I was expecting were a bigger screen, and a stainless steel back; kind of what this mock up from Veterangeek.com looks like:

There's no doubt that the new features on the iPhone 4S are welcome, but they could have used those same features on the iPhone 5.

Today I'm looking into the Samsung Galaxy S II to see how it could fit into my lifestyle. IPhone 4S, really? Come on Apple! You can do better!

I'm a bit lost now, but as I'm overdue for a phone upgrade, I'll probably swallow my disappointment and get the iPhone 4S anyway.; October 5, 2011 at 6:22 PM
