Apparently there's a rumour the 5th gen iTouch (which will add like nothing ) is being announced at the same time as the iPhone, so I'll get that instead cos I can't afford an iPhone and my phone is only 1 year and 1 day old.

I think you'd be better off with an iPHONE, to be honest. Or an iPOD Touch. They're not that expensive, though, are they?

You could always ask your parents.

I lost my iPod, so an iPod will be my replacement. I will not be allowed an iPhone. Mum doesn't have the money, and my phone is still so new

Oh, right. So long as you don't get one of those gay BlackBerries. I absolutely hate those 'phones. They do my bloody head in.

If you haven't lost the recepit, then I think you can get it fixed for free. Happened to my sister, I think. Might be wrong, though.

I love that they have a qwerty keyboard but they're not very well made and have a bad reputation as the "phone that all the chavs have".

But other than that they're not too bad imo. I think there are better Qwerty phones. I want a Qwerty phone rather than a touch screen. My current genio is annyoying.

They're not the biggest pile of wank ever - they're decent - but it pisses me off the way everyone has one. Why? What is so important about BlackBerries? Why are they so great? Are there not better? Nah, you'd be better with a touch screen. They're well easier.

[Doogle]

No I agree they aren't the best mobile on the market, and there are much much better.

And I prefer to have my iPod Touch, and then a qwerty phone. I can type very fast and I tend to dislike touch screen keyboards except iPhones because I'm used to it. But I won't get one. Samsung Galaxy has one of the worst keyboards ever though. Terrible touch screen phone.

I think Samsung Galaxies are decent, IMO. If you've still got the receipt, you might be able to get a new 'phone for free.

I'll get insurance from it and just say it was stolen (since Idk if I lost it or if someone stole it even though it was zipped up in an inside pocket)

But yeah I'll get a new iPod with the insurance money and Mum will pay if it's more than insurance money

Go for it.

I miss my iPod, it's weird without it. If however I win that Big Brother competition I will get the new iPhone and an iPad 2 anyway

[Smithy]

New iPhone 4S, not iPhone 5. trololol

but idc cos they announced new iPod Touch in white. and a new nano like a watch. no shuffle or classic.

[Smithy]

ugh, reading, wtf is wrong with the world

[Doogle]

They have messed up I think. Bit underwhelming so far but not surprised.

I'm surprised they've kept the Nano though.

7.13pm: Voice is "such a letdown". "We want to ask a simple question - what is the weather like today, what's the upcoming forecast... your phone will figure out what you need and get it done..

"That's a feature we call Siri, it's an intelligent assistant that gets things done."

Scott Forstall comes out and shows off how he can ask "what's the weather like today?"

Ladyvoice thing comes back going to the app for the weather. (Will it have lots of different voices?) He's starting to look like a weather obsessive. (The ladyvoice sounds like something from a GPS.)

Oh, now a clock question. "What time is it in Paris?" (It doesn't say "Paris, Texas? Or Paris France?" Shouldn't it?)

[Niall]

To be honest so much of this stuff as leaked I'm not finding anything surprising.

I'm starting to think the prospect of an iPhone 5 launch/announcement is becoming less and less likely today unless its gonna be todays "Oh and just one more thing.." thing that they like to do.

(I know too much about Apple lmfao.)

[Niall]

They really milked that voice control thing, maybe they're trying to really drag this out so they can surprise everyone with the iPhone 5 at the end.

[Smithy]

I dont think they'd announce and iPhone 4S and iPhone 5, that makes no sense to me

But new iTunes!

[Niall]

Huh. No iPhone 5. That'll be next year then.

Well it does really. iPhone 4S = new slimmed down, sped up iPhone 4. iPhone 5 = new, beefier iPhone for those who want something more powerful.

Thats how I'd see it anyways. Either way it seems we'll be waiting 'till around next summer at the earliest for the 5.
