In January 2007 Steve Jobs unveiled the iPhone. Summer 2007 he announced its release date and "sweet" web apps to go with it. In Fall 2007 he introduced the iPod touch and iTunes Store app. Spring 2008 brought iOS 2 (then iPhone OS 2.0) and the App Store. Summer 2008 saw iPhone 3G and MobileMe. Fall 2008 was iPod touch 2. Spring 2009 was iOS 3. Summer 2009 was iPhone 3GS. Fall 2009 was iPod touch 3. January 2010, iPad. Spring 2010, iOS 4. Summer 2010, iPhone 4. Fall 2010, iPod touch 4 and Apple TV 2. Spring 2011, iPad and...
Nothing. Maybe.
Momentum is a fickle thing. You can gain and lose it in the blink of an eye. For four years iOS software and hardware have been setting the pace for mobile. From a single app-less iPhone in 2007, iOS has grown to encompass iPhone, iPod touch, iPad and Apple TV and a host of supporting software and services. The original iPhone was a true revolution, obsoleting then market-leaders Palm, Microsoft, RIM, and Symbian. They never saw it coming, denied it was happening, and then failed for years to frame anything close to a coherent response. And while they were spinning, Apple hit them again with the App Store. And again with the iPad.
Windows Phone has rebooted but is still in early days and has struggled to provide timely updates. Even with HP's deep pockets and huge reach Palm has been slow to get new devices out the door. BlackBerry is counting on a tablet to bridge the gap between their phones of the past and superphones of the future. And Nokia is in the middle of a shotgun wedding with Microsoft. With the Verizon iPhone in the US and white iPhone 4 slated for spring, Apple could easily skate another 3 months in that competitive landscape.
But not in a competitive landscape that includes Android.
Originally shown off as a BlackBerry or Windows Mobile Standard competitor, Android rapidly changed focus post-iPhone and came straight at Apple. While the G1 was clearly unfinished they began to hit their stride with Droid. Half way through iPhone 3GS' product cycle, Nexus One actually took the lead in some areas. An inspirational device, it was way ahead of previous Android phones and showed where the platform was going for the next year. iPhone 4 was Apple's answer.
According to rumors, however, Apple may not preview iOS 5 this spring and may not introduce an iPhone 5 this summer. If these rumors turn out to be true, Apple will be facing 15+ months without a new phone or major OS update, and 3+ months of relative stillness in the incredibly fast moving market.
Meanwhile, Google's "openy" Android will just keep coming. While Nexus S turned out to be more summation of the past year than indicator of the next, spring has sprung seemingly a dozen more with dual core, LTE, and 3D. Whether any of these new Android features are particularly compelling or not, they're still new features, new phones. They're still news.
Come June AT&T and other carrier contracts will be up and for the first time in 4 years there won't be a new iPhone to drive renewal. For the first time people who just want a new iPhone, the way they've been accustomed to getting each year's new fashion, won't have one waiting for them. Existing owners accustomed to a software refresh, a breath of fresh air into their older devices, won't be getting a major new version of iOS. Developers won't have had several months with new APIs and won't have a slew of new apps ready to take advantage of them.
Whether or not finishing Mac OS X Lion has caused a delay in iOS 5 the way iOS has caused delays for Mac OS X in the past, whether or not a delay in IOS 5 has caused a delay in iPhone 5, whether or not there are issues with components or engineering, or absolutely nothing but Apple's will to schedule it so, for the first time since 2007 we're facing... a break in Apple's pace.
Momentum is a fickle thing. Come June there may be no lineups, no race to iTunes' update button.
What then?
There are 93 comments. Add yours.
They're bring a new iphone out this summer. There is no reason for them to change their developing cycle.
They better, it will ruin the cycle.
well if no iphone 5 this summer, andriod will take over and apple wont be able to catch up..many dissapointed iphone owners... end result....jump ship.lol
What's idiotic about it? it's true. People's contracts end and they want a new phone. Why would they wait 1 year off contract just to get another iphone? I would DEF jump ship if I had to wait ANOTHER year with the same phone for no reason. I think it's VERY true. People will switch over to other carriers or other models, whatever is available and fashionable at the moment. The iPhone 4 is no longer fashionable (having a year old phone or even 2 year old phone isn't exactly desirable).
@Kent but they won't switch. Part of the beauty of iPhone is that most iPhone users, who are seriously invested in the platform have no where to go. I've probably spent $200-300 over the last 3 years on apps and accessories for my iPod/iPhone. There's no way I'm going to let that go just because I can get better hardware. It's not about hardware with phones it's about the user experience. Most iPhone users know this and aren't just going to jump ship immediately if a new phone isn't available.
Plus anybody that has picked up an iPhone 4 (which is a whole hell of a lot because of AT&T's softened upgrade schedule for the launch of it) won't be able to upgrade in June anyway. They're on an 18 month refresh date of about December if they reupped their plan last June. Plus 3gs users will be eligible for upgrade, and they will likely be content to wait, or upgrade to an iP4 because the 3gs is still a fantastic phone.
Sell your iP4 and get something new in the summer. You can always carry your apps investment on to an iPod Touch.
Who cares about "the cycle?" We are used to it but it's not like it's the only way things can be. Macs come and go all the time, but Apple has a particularly successful form factor, they stick with it. LTE networks aren't ready for a big jump and the iPhone 4 is nearly perfect as it is. There's already a ton of RAM and storage on the iPhone 4, the screen is gorgeous, and any gains from putting in a new CPU would be offset by increased battery usage. Apple should wait until the next truly impressive, must-have "big thing" is ready, and not lock themselves into an arbitrarily regular release schedule.
Of course, they could always surprise everyone ...
Hmm... faster processor, DING! Larger screen, DING! More ram, DING! Larger battery, DING! I think all those merit a switch to a new device. I think my 3.5 inch screen on my iphone is tiny. I'm waiting to see if the iphone 5 comes out with a larger screen or not this summer. If it doesn't, I'm switching. I don't mind.
I'm like many out there. My wife has a 3G, I have a 3GS. If there is no iPhone 5, there is nothing tying me to staying for an iPhone when I know that Android is constantly developing and there are always new phones. The EVO is better that the iPhone 4. Simple as that. No iPhone 5, then see ya later.
Would you rather have a new iPhone this summer/fall or have your android phone become outdated in less than 6 months.
You be the judge.
Android is the news Windows OS.
I'm just switching back from the Atrix and trust me my battery was garbage dead after 10 hours of minimal use. It has a dual core processor in it but you could have fooled me it ran clunkier than my iPhone did. So I gladly switched back I've had the evo,epic,inspire, and atrix and the iPhone tops them all. I even got faster speeds on my iPhone 5-6 mbs download than what I got with Att and there hspa+. so I'm not going anywhere I'll gladly hold out for another iPhone because the competition isn't that great. The next best thing to iOS is webos.
What are you smoking becadue whatever it is I want some of it. The iPhone 4 is far from perfect I want a 4" screen the A5 chip higher Res ffc, and I have LTE and HSPA+ where I live. I currently have a Droid X and was one of the people that had to painfully hold off on the iPhone 4 on VZW and I wont wait another year. I already waited 3.
i hope so
sounds like a very sad article... :(
anyways, i can't wait to see the iPhone 5 this summer as well as iOS 5 for my iPhone 4...
happily waiting for Lion...:)
I think Apple is making a mistake if they miss a summer iPhone launch. Rene hit it right on the head, momentum.
There will be an iphone 5 this summer. it may not be a huge gain over the iphone 4 but they will launch something
The iTunes app store came out before iOS 2 in 2007 when the iPod Touch came ? I thought apps came with but not before iOS 2 ?
As for iOS and iPhone 5 , there has to be one. If the rumors are true then we have to wait more then two months to get it ( in Q3 ) and that would be disappointing.
Lion is suppose to be out in the summer , assuming it won't get pushed back. Im not sure how likely a side by side release would be like. Apple usually doesn't release software and hardware together. iOS 4 came a week or so before iPhone 4 and apple never allowed their software releases to slow down hardware releases.
Hoping for the best that I don't have to wait until September to get the new phone. My 3GS has come to the end of the road since I broke the screen two months ago.
I can't image Lion would be the cause of this delay. Mac OS development is a separate entity. Every Apple employee isn't thrown at a single project.
Software releases referring to OS X and hardware referring to Macs
I still think the new iPhone is coming. I watched the iPad 2 event again tonight. And the stuff Steve mentioned about being ahead with iPad. I see the same thing with the iPhone. Skip LTE this year and make it available next year. Just like 3G was in 2008.
No LTE is not really being ahead. Sure LTE is still new, but hey, have a LTE phone and LTE will be there when it does come so those who are locked in a 2 year can have LTE since the chances that LTE will be everywhere with in the next two years are likey.
you know the water that surrounds the US ? If you go further out from that you get to what we call "the rest of the world". LTE isn't ready in the US and not ready in other places either. Why would they release a "world phone" with LTE when other countries aren't ready ?
Actually Verizon is set to launch pretty substantial LTE coverage by the end of the year. Even my dead city of about 80k is getting it. I wouldn't be surprised if Apple is waiting to announce it alongside Verizon's LTE outlay and AT&T's HSPA+ network (which technically is already active but iPhone doesn't support it yet).
Momentum is not simply releasing a product on a predictable yearly timetable. Momentum- true momentum- is measured by popularity both in sales as well as ubiquitous branding. I would say that at this point in the life-cycle of iOS and iPhone 4 there is much more momentum (popularity) than any previous version of iOS and iPhone by a long shot. iPhone 4 is still HUGE with a lot of life left. It is not ready for a replacement yet like previous versions of the iPhone were by this time. Nothing on the market even comes close to the design and quality of the iPhone 4 so now it is time to let it simmer a bit. Let Verizon customers who were not eligible for a upgrade at launch become eligible, let android users sick of the fragmentation and sub-par hardware quality switch over. And of course let ATT users upgrade. A few extra months of riding the iphone 4 wave is a good thing. It is also good for the iPad. iPhone 4 users can purchase an iPad to fill that new iPhone void.
I know I'm gonna be flamed for this but people are freaking out over this. Just take a step back and think. Perhaps the batteries that come from japan are cause of the delay. You know japan needs to focus on rebuliding before they can and should make Batteries for your apple products. In case any of you forgot they just had a 9.0 magatude earthquaake and are dealing with a nuclar reactor.
Also what if this delay would be worth it? A major iphone update would be well worth the wait right?
Life WILL GO ON if there is no iphone this summer. The iPhone 4 will get people by just fine.
I'm not flaming you. But I would like to point out that I am one of those users that is waiting with baited breath for a new iPhone in June. The reason? I have (cracked screen) 3G that has been off contract since December. Yes I could have bought an iPhone 4 but I did that with the iPhone 3 (purchased in Dec 6 months before the 3GS came out) and disappointed in my self for not waiting.
Frankly, other than the cracked screen (and my mistake of putting iOS 4 on it, I could live with the 3G for another year or two. But now I want a new phone but don't want one just before the new shiny comes out.
Could I switch? No. Why? Because I'm grandfathered into the AT&T unlimited plan and really really really don't want to lose that.
I'm good with my iPhone 4 and iPad 2 for a year at least. We will see what happens. I'm never going back to Android though. If I wanna see things jerk around I'll stomp on the brake of my SUV! LOL!
I hate to say this but I'd jump ship if there wasn't an iPhone 5. I can't stay with the same tech for too long
i hear ya... need the latest and greatest lol
Doesn't matter to me. I wouldn't be upgrading anyways. I am waiting until 2012 for my contract to be up and then see where my business goes. I am more wanting iOS 5. I just want better notifications.
Apple would frankly be making a GIGANTIC mistake in not bringing a dish to the phone picnic this summer. Apple's stock prices are starting to take a hit just based on these rumors. Apple released the Ipad 2 on schedule and thus perpetuated the trend....I would be absolutely stunned if they mess up on this one.
Just a thought but, could this simply boil down to supply & demand? What parts, if any, come from Japan?
recent reports have shown Apple willing to spend more to cover the slack casued by the disaste. samsung is thought to be hiring like 500 additonal engeneers to help with the screen slack
So as far as suppliers go, Apple has ways of meeting demand if things get tight in supply lines
That might be true of there were other capable suppliers who's production wasn't already contracted out for all the other emerging tablets. But for security Apple, in recent years, has tried to limit the number of vendors to reduce media leaks (not that it does any good). When they put all their eggs in one basket (even for a few components) this is likely to happen.
I think the competition better hope Apple pushes an iPhone 5 this summer. Lest they be working on something big that no one knows about and we're all driving iCars in a year.
I'm sure Apple will release an iPhone, this summer, just like they always do. Why would it change now? What have they been doing all this time then ... They have teams specifically working on iPhone, iPod, iPad, etc. So why this year any different from the rest? Thats the thing we love about Apple, they're consistent. iPad in March, iOS Preview in April, two months of hype, buzz, and buildup then WWDC in June. Summer Lion comes out, September, iPod+iTunes refresh. ... Repeat. ... It's been like that since '07 (minus the iPad)
This will give time for android to catch up
Dual Core, 4G, HDMI out, 1080p recording, 3D, qHD, NFC, cloud music storage...Catch up to what?
Why is no one taking into account of the fiasco that happened last year? When the iPhone 4 was found in a bar, sold to Gizmodo and taken apart before it was returned to Apple. They also got a lot of bad press for the iPhone 4, the yellow tint under the glass, the back glass shattering way to easy and the whole antenna issue.
Knowing how secretive Apple is, I wouldn't be surprised if they're keeping everything under lock, key, padlock, safe and buried a mile underground in a vault as they don't want to have a repeat of what happened last year. Not releasing a new iPhone would allow Android to jump ahead of them and Apple doesn't want that.
That makes the far most amount of sense.
I think that after the "fail" in iP4 last summer will warrant a NEED to release iPhone 5. You know, just to remain in good standings with all the people who gave the death grip a piece of their mind. If, however likely IMO, they do not release an iPhone 5 this summer, the next phone would HAVE to be a major update. No questions asked. Like we better be getting everything + more on our bucket list, because Apple (as do we all) knows that they can release a phone with just enough features that makes the old one obsolete in comparison so that we can go out and have to get it. I think they should release iP5 just to remain on top, but then the 6 should be the mother of all updates in both the phone and iOS.
They may not announce it at wwdc, but perhaps the following week or month. Maybe, it's 2007 all over again!
If it is supply, it is affecting everyone not just Apple.
Apple is rumored to delay and backed up by "sources". Is this new iPhone postponed because of the event in Japan or it is a revolutionary leap of a new iPhone. If revolutionary, it will be difficult to imagine what it will be. Artificial intelligence (A.I.) phone that talks to you. Who knows!
Having used both and currently have an iPhone for VZW. I think Android will at least share the spot light within the next year with or without the iPhone 5.
Great article. I think (and hope) that apple is aware of this momentum and just being more secretive after last year.
You know what follows Momentum, inertia
Apple said
"At this year's conference we are going to unveil the future of iOS and Mac OS. If you are an iOS or Mac OS X software developer, this is the event that you do not want to miss."
the future of iOS is not going to be iOS 4.x futurer is going to be iOS 5 they are going show iOS 5 beta out "today" iOS 5 out in a few weeks, one more thing the new iPhone down call it a day (for iOS stuff ) oh and a tone of bla bla bla apps apps and more apps
Conspiracy theory, Apple develop new iPhones over 2 years. If so, they are already in the development cycle for iPhone 6. The iPhone 5 introduction rumored to be delayed for a few months. Why? The component makeup for the new iPhone is not available till August, maybe? LTE,A6?,A.I.(aka Siri),cloud,NFC,etc. OR,Japan event straining supply for all who gets supply from them.
I think the rumors are started by investors who love droids. Pathetic.
im not getting a bumper so i still have the death touch and ive grown quite tired of it. i put up with it because everything else is awesome but its also a year old awesome. i like trying new gadgets do want to try android's latest and greatest to compare and if there is no 5 then that may be a good time to do it. you don't have to jailbreak and android phone do you? only painful thing will be all the apps id have to replace on the new platform. $
Rene, your analysis is as always is very thought-provoking. I'm not sure that momentum is actually lost or gained in a blink, but I get where you're coming from.
However, I'm not sure that in technology and market terms the world is ready for the iPhone 5. What is it that would move the platform forward? LTE for one, but as you've pointed out many times this is an experience fight. Apple's top people want to make something that really pushes expectations and gives a new experience.
Android's development is pushing on and on with new features, but as long as Apple produce an iPhone in the next 15 months that pushes onto new territory then they may not lose anything. In the interim, if they sort out notifications we'll all be happy :-)
The most compelling part of your argument for me was the renewals issue, with people expecting to get a new iPhone like clockwork. In market terms, not addressing that need would be dumb. However, Apple do as Apple does; they've shown that they don't follow either their customers or the market, but follow their vision for a customer experience (as they see it). So far that's produced quite a number of surprises. Maybe this will be one more.
I would like a notification LED on the next one.
Great article. Maybe they're going to reset the pattern, give Verizon folks a year in their contracts andbreveal 5 in January or spring 2012. Apple won't let itself be slaves to an arbitrary release schedule. They'll delay to keep it interesting. Guess another year for my 3GS!
IMHO, The "no new iphone in June" is just Marketing plans. So people will buy the iPhone 4 now rather than waiting for the next-gen one. As we might see white iPhone would arrive soon.
As usual, Apple love to surprised their costumers.. A Great Magical surprise of course..
This would be a big story if the current iOS devises were sub par........but they're not. iPhone 4 is still the standard in the industry, and with the release and short supply of iPad 2, Apple will continue to be in the forefront, regardless of no new product releases.
I would rather wait 3-6 months for a bigger and badder iPhone 5. Let Apple get it right.
When my wife and I got iphones almost two years ago she got a 3G and I got a 3Gs. I really don't want to upgrade to a 4 this July when my contract is up only to find that in September the 5 is out.
I'm part of that summer contract renewal group who is really anxious for something new.
+1 to that. Our contract is up now, and I don't want to hold out for something that may or may not be coming.
Yeah, you might say that there is a break in Apple's pace; but I think it's humanly impossible to go with the pace that Apple was moving.
I'm glad they're not releasing a new phone, that way we get more use out of the current iPhone. I don't like how each year there's a new phone and then you are craving that new hardware. Its really tempting.
My $0.02...
Apple doesn't have the bandwidth to release a new iPhone this summer. The botched supply of the iPad 2 is an indicator that they might be stretched a bit too thin. Supply STILL hasn't recovered for the iPad 2. It's easy to drop a new device every year when those devices are essentially the same (iPhone and iPod Touch). When you add an iPad to the mix, particularly a much anticipated iPad release that, by all accounts, didn't go particularly smoothly, you gear down a bit. Reputations are at stake.
The iPhone 4 is still an incredible representative for the brand. They bought some time by releasing a VZW flavor in February. I don't see how they can reload so quickly.
Particularly with the task-master, visionary and chief innovator, Jobs, in the hurt locker.
Anyway, they might get one out in early fall. No sooner.
Also, Rene, thought this article was pretty good.
This same thing happened last year with the 1st iPad. It sold out quickly, and it took a while for Apple to produce more stock and they still came out with iPhone 4 on time.
As an apple fanboy this possibly the most depressing article ever as you ask What then?
They will release a new iPhone. Not releasing it would send their stock price into a steep nose dive. My guess is they just put out iPhone 4-S (ala 3GS), make a couple OS updates (like AirPrint in any printer) and release a massive cloud service like amazon cloud, and call it the future of iOS.
I believe the iphone will come this summer. I am a loyal Verizon customer waiting patiently for the iphone. I bought my wife the iphone the day Verizon got it and she loves it, but she isn't driven by new technology like I am, so here I wait.
I have enjoyed following the rumors of the Verizon iphone, new ipad and now the iphone 5.
There have been too many supply/part photo leaks via China and Apple had to put a stop to it. Verizon demanded it; it is killing sales of the iphone to people like me. Two weeks ago we had mock up photos of what the iphone would likely look like, and now the fickle public is supposed to buy the fact that it isn't ready for a summer release?
"The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist."
Love the quote Brent.
When the Verizon iPhone was released I thought this would push the release of iPhone 5 back to at least the fall. Apple wasn't going to wait 6 months to roll out a Verizon iPhone and miss out on a couple of million iPhone 4 sales. It wouldn't make sense to have separate release dates for new iPhones six months apart as Apple needs to bring Verizon to the same cycle as AT&T, so pushing the release back to the fall would be 9 months since the Verizon release and a little over a year for the AT&T release. Add in the holiday season and it will sell well on both carriers.
Android is a great OS and does a lot of things better than iOS, but iOS also does a lot of things better than Android too, so if there isn't a release this summer I don't think it will be enough to cause people to jump ship by itself. Remember, Froyo has been out since something like June and it's still not on all the Android phones. Gingerbread was released around the last quarter of 2010 and still isn't on but a few phones.
My contract is up in June. I have a 3Gs. If there is no new iPhone this summer, my iPhone will become an iTouch and I will get a droid and join my wife/kids on their Sprint family plan.
People do know it's April Fool's Day, right?
Apple is already pushing there luck with introducing only one new handset a year, and even then, they are usually never as good as most other Android phones as far as hardware goes, and maybe even software. That will depend on what iOS 5 brings. But I do believe that if they break their release cycle, then their market share will go down. The iPhone 4 can barely compete compared to some of the newer phones out there as it is. Waiting another half a year seems unwise, and very unlike Apple.
ip4 fail last year? did i miss something? there were people waiting in lines for days, they were sold out everywhere for months, & by the time everyone got the ip4 in their hands, all the press & other phone manufactures could do is talk up the antenna issue. Apple showed us that every phone has that potential. I didnt like the fact that they did a press conference to do that, but the press was making a huge issue over it.
Honestly, every ip version has done incredibly, & now its on 2 major US networks. The ip4 is an incredible success, & it shows that people prefer quality build & reliable products over bigger screens, & slightly better specs. But in the end, we all have features we like & cant live w/o. i prefer a super sharp screen & great streamlined experience over a gimmick 3D 8mp camera or a hatchet job operating system bundled in a flimsy plastic case.
Solid take.
All these rumors about the iPhone 5 not coming out this year is rubbish. It's going to be packed with the same processor as the iPad 2. IOS 5 may be delayed a couple of months, which I doubt, and there may be supply issues because of Japan, but it will come out as usual. No new iPhone is much worse than a new iPhone with just a few spec improvements.
Apple is going to launch an Iphone 5 this summer. That's their business. They are in the business of putting out products that we DO NOT need but are led to believe we must have.
I know about 2 dozen Verizon users who currently have BlackBerry or Andriod phones that just or are about to come off contract. They all said I was crazy to get the iPhone in February, because, even those non tech folks, "knew" a new iPhone was coming out in June/July. I said:
- I have stayed with Verizon for this long, waiting, and wasn't going to wait longer, and felt that with the Verizon iPhone (new revenue stream previously untapped) and the "spring" White iPhone 4, that summer was looking a bit less likely. I still feel that way.
- iPhone 5 will likely be a minor revision, 3G - 3Gs in scope. It will be iPhone 6 in 2012 that gets LTE.
Long way to say, every one of them is getting the next iPhone. I think that says a lot for it's appeal vs BB, Android, Win7, etc...
I see it this way. If the LTE technology or the ios5 software or whatever it is they think is not ready then wait a few months. Will they lose some potential customers? Yes. But how many will they lose if they release a sub par phone with a half baked os? We all have seen the complaints of rim or motorola or samsung or whoever releasing their product before it's ready. Now we want apple to do it too? Let's give them a little credit here. So far they seem to have timed the market right. You may not agree with their process but I think they have earned the benefit of the doubt here.
As I said about 2 months ago (go ahead and search the forum, it's there), we will not see an iPhone 5 until the holiday season this year. Seems like I was right. Again. Everyone just sit back and relax. Your iPhone 5 will be here late October / early November. Just in time for the holidays.
I think it's very easy for everyone here that knows Apples release cycle to say chill out, but for the common consumer - basically everyone not on this site - they don't know the first thing about Apples release schedule. When I tell my friends new ipods come out in September they are genuinely surprised. Basically, when they come up for renewal this summer and there is no iphone 5 buzz they will just go elsewhere.
I have an iphone 4 - i love it, it's great however if a better phone comes out this summer and apples tight lipped policy on leaks doesn't even release a snippet of info then I am more than willing to go to Android. I know I'll lose my apps but hey, I might get an iPad or in the end I might just realise that half the apps I've bought I don;t use.
Apples biggest strength in the mobile world is their consistent release schedule. I hope they don't mess it up.
The way I see it....
No new iphone
No new IOS
Tougher to Jailbreak...
I jumped shipped when 3g arrived to the iphone... been with them since... All of them jailbroken...
With the current track record,
Lack of updates of things we need + tougher Jailbreaks + no new phone/software to support the functionality I want/can get, means I might jump ship to android or even windows phone 7.
We'll see if this is just a publicity stunt and tight lips from Apple.. but... it might again be the last apple product I ever buy.
The cool thing?
If there is no iphone 5, I wont get an ipad 2.
Summer just won't be the same.
"Even with HP's deep pockets and huge reach Palm has been slow to get new devices out the door"
They just bought Palm last year, give them a break. webOS was more than a capable os to compete against iOS. Palm just didn't have the money to back it up at the time.
I don't see the big deal... I love my iPhone 4, I don't need a 5 in June. If I were on contract I'd just go month to month until the 5 was out. if I had a 3GS and wanted a 5, I'd get the 4 then sell it for a profit on eBay when the 5 comes out.
Simple. There is no break, other than for people who sit waiting for the next new Apple device.
It will come.
We don't even know if there won't be something in June. lets not pretend like articles like this help the cause.
Apple will have been planning and designing iPhone 5 for the past to years as they did with the iPhone 4. I think they will keep to there product cycle. + they know a vast amount of customers are upgrading at that time. In my opinion there will be a iPhone 5 in June
What then..? Then I'll soldier on happily with my 3GS and my iphone; buy a macbook pro for my son; buy some more apps and when Ipad 3 and Iphone 5 or 6 eventually comes out, I may need an upgrade more than I want one and for the first time in years feel that I'm making a sensible upgrade decision. Apple's stock price will meantime drop slightly below 300 and I'll pick up some shares and enjoy the rally when a kickass Ipad 3 and a new amazing product I never dreamt of hits the market in 2012.
Just do what I did, sell your iPhone X and make some good money before the 5 comes out. Then take the money and buy a solid Android phone (something by HTC) and you can easily root and rom it. No more worrying about OS releases and waiting for jailbreaks. Come on, you know you want to especially come late June and there's no mention of the iPhone 5. Don't worry about your apps, they will still work on your iPad; mine do :)

(BPT) - Hearing loss is much more common than most people realize. In fact, it is such a prevalent condition that only arthritis and hypertension affect more people. If left untreated, the consequences of hearing loss can be severe and greatly impact the quality of life and personal relationships of those affected. Worst of all, it can end up hurting you and the ones you love.
Whether you are a spouse, a caregiver or a friend of someone with hearing loss, coping with the condition can be difficult. Communication may become greatly hindered, causing you to speak and share less with your loved one. It can also lead to less involvement in social activities and increased feelings of depression or sadness.
'Before my husband found the right treatment for his hearing loss, we found ourselves leaving early from social events or declining them altogether,' says Sherree Listwa of her relationship with husband Howard Listwa. 'Hearing all day at work and then again on the weekends for social events was too tiring for Howard. It was a little depressing for both of us as we had three busy sons and many social invitations.'
According to the Better Hearing Institute, a large number of people wait 15 years or more from the point when they first recognize they have a hearing loss to when they purchase their first hearing aids. Once they take this step, it may take another several years of being unhappy with hearing aids for them to realize that they are not the only option. The good news is that there is another solution that can medically treat more substantial degrees of hearing loss.
'In 2008, after years of using the best and most powerful hearing aids, Howard's audiologist began to mention the possibility of a cochlear implant,' says Listwa. 'However, it wasn't until 2010 that Howard became serious about looking into the technology. The breaking point came when we observed someone with two cochlear implants in a noisy restaurant, talking and enjoying their meal. We knew that day that there was help and hope.'
A cochlear implant is life-changing technology proven to help adults with severe to profound hearing loss, which is commonly known as 'nerve deafness.' Unlike hearing aids, which make sounds louder, cochlear implants bypass damaged parts of the inner ear and directly stimulate the hearing nerve to provide sound signals to the brain.
'Following Howard's cochlear implant in December 2010, there were immediate changes in his ability to hear and in our ability to participate in everyday things that most people take for granted,' says Listwa. 'We now enjoy socializing, going to concerts and have even made some new friends. Howard is also involved in playing his cello again and is able to read stories to our granddaughter. He says he has 'gotten his life back' and that's true for me as well.'
Unlike hearing aids, cochlear implants are covered by Medicare, most private health insurance plans, and may be covered by Medicaid. Additionally, the cochlear implant evaluation is typically covered by most insurance companies.
'Howard wishes that he had looked into a cochlear implant earlier so he could have enjoyed the social life he now realizes he was missing. Our advice to anyone who is a candidate and is able to have the surgery is to go for it - you have everything to gain!'
To learn more and to find a cochlear implant clinic near you, visit www.Cochlear.com/US. If you would like to speak to someone who has a cochlear implant about their personal experience, call 1-800-483-3123 or email email@example.com.

Orange County Domestic Violence Commission Gives Final Report, Expands Role to Implement Changes
August 20, 2013 | WMFE - Orange County's Domestic Violence Commission on Tuesday presented its final report to county commissioners. Now, commission members are tasked with implementing the changes they proposed.
Orange County Mayor Teresa Jacobs formed the commission in February to investigate improvements and new strategies for handling the issue after a spike in local domestic violence-related murders.
The final report gave 24 recommendations, like expanding law enforcement data sharing, providing victim advocates, and requiring training for personnel who deal with domestic violence cases from response to a victim's call for help through sentencing an offender.
Commission Co-Chair and former state House Representative Dick Batchelor told county commissioners that while recommendations are "fine," putting them into practice is the key.
"What we're going to have is the Domestic Violence Commission kind of moving over into a Domestic Violence Working Group, so we can do the implementation of these recommendations, and hopefully we'll come back to you sometime in a few months and give you an update as to what we're doing," said Batchelor. "Because we fully intend to work very hard to be sure that every recommendation can be implemented."
Batchelor said all the members of the commission have committed to stay on and help implement the changes.

OT, but have you guys seen this? Lol it's so cute, apparently it's their special handshake. I've never seen it before.
I also want to say how much I love the comments being made here. to everyone.
If the judges don't have a change of heart then it would be another season just like this one only this time a second Olympic gold is on the line.
I do think V&M will still come up with new elements and ideas for their Olympic FD but I agree they need to dial it back a tad with the degree of difficulty. They bent over backwards and killed themselves to introduce news ideas and movement to the sport but all it seemed to get them was criticism and accusations that they are falling further behind the supposedly superior D&W.
Tessa and Scott do often take the entire season to build their programs but they can't afford to do that again. Don't get me wrong, I don't see V&M completely taking the easy way out and doing a more empty program. I also think them building to a peak by the end of the season events will change but I think they could/should find some sort of middle ground. Something in between Mahler and Carmen both in technical content and artistry. Or maybe between Funny Face and Carmen.
Not to mention, while D&W are an excellent technical team and are fast (but I disagree as well they are faster than V&M) I do think they are one of those teams who have reached top end of what they are capable of. I just can't see them attempting a program with the wall to wall content of Carmen and being able to pull it off. ITA again that almost all of D&W's FD's since POTO look the same but they are doing what works for them and so far they have been given no reason to change.
Don't get me wrong walei, I agree with everything you say but unfortunately we have to factor in whatever the judges are thinking and hoping that they have a change of heart. That is a big question mark and risk.
At this point, V&M seem damned if they do, damned if they don't. They get a boatload of criticism no matter what. Even a program like Carmen didn't seem to stop that; to change peoples low opinion of them.
As I said above, I think V&M can dial back some of the extreme difficulty of what the do while still presenting a program that still stands out artistically and have the neccesary difficulty.
With Tessa and Scott it's not just that the risk and level of content of the Carmen FD wasn't appreciated, it's also that they overtrained and put more strain on themselves both physically and emotionally. And for what? They still ended up coming off to many as if they were faltering and are falling behind D&W.
I agree with you about V&M choosing to do a ballet for next season. It could have the feel of Mahler but still have creative elements within it.
It's those who clearly hate V&M and come here just to be snide and take cheap shots; make personal attacks on V&M and some of the posters here that is the problem.
Cachoo and kitty, both of you made great posts and presented yourselves in a respectful manner. Even if I don't end up agreeing with all of what you say, I respect that you came here to have a civil discussion. I think it's to be expected that everyone is not going to agree but it's all in how a person presents themselves.
I hope neither of you feel as if you can't come here and join in the debate. I don't think that is what anyone wants.
Cachoo, I think it was necessary for V&M to do a program like Carmen. It goes back to what I said before about Tessa and Scott being damned if they do and damned if they don't. We all know how good they are and how capable they are of moving an audience and using their incredible connection to sell their programs. However, they have been criticized in the past for their romantic themed programs; accused of always being too "lovey dovey" all the time.
I do think if V&M do a ballet FD next year they can capitalize on their romantic connection while still bringing something new to the table. Especially with Jennifer Swan still on board.
Of course at the end of the day it's the judges' opinion that matter most because they are still first and foremost athletes competing in a sport. In that sense I agree with you that V/M are in a damn if they do damn if they don't situation.
And i hope T-S will go to vacations now and have good rest. And maybe after that they will change there minds about coaching situation ))))))))
I hope Tessa will recover... At least she will feel, like she was in Nice.
Radio station.
eta.. Unfortunately that was probably about an hour ago.
Not me; I wanted them to win.
But it happened, so hopefully people actually were able to appreciate it and win some new fans.
To be honest, I wonder if a lot of fans of that dramatic style of ice dancing with beautiful lines and deep edges have just given up on ice dancing in general, and that's maybe why V&M aren't getting the support. I was talking to a friend who used to be a huge fan of ice dancing and they said they could not bear to watch anymore as CoP has sucked out a lot of interesting details and with the elimination of the CD and destroying the OD. I notice a lot of the FSU posters that used to be really into ice dance barely commented on Worlds. FSU used to have some great discussions analyzing all the dances, the politiks, the technik of all top couples... and now that seems to be left to the uber threads.
Abd yes, i was one of fans, who wished to see something creative more then gold And they did this. I even asked them to use unusuall choreo on overused music
But who could imaging new ice dance fans and old judges isnt ready to see nothing new and hot?
I think this happens because especially as time goes by with CoP ice dancing is turning into a more political event than it ever was. Everything that was good about the sport is getting destroyed little by little. There was no way for people to get on the podium under 6.0 if they had bad posture,serious technical problems,edge problems, etc.Yes, there were different ways to cheat but what about the TES? The way it's been this season is just strange. You either know what level something is or not, you either understand the technical difficulty or not.
If a program is judged difficulty wise using just 8 elements then it's not fair to all these skaters that want to add. And yes, one can argue that it's all about the PCS then,but how is this really used? How are transitions used and why do they actually try to make ice dancing into a " stay on your two feet ,do nothing and get the marks" kind of sport.
V/M risked,which means that if you risk you should get more credit even in case you're not perfectly crisp and crystal clear.Because you risk,and this is what sport is supposed to be.
I am always intrigued by the twizzles of the top couples. There are levels being given,rules on how to give them, and yet it always strikes me that people who don't do a catch foot position, have the obligatory little jump,but are painfully slow shouldn't be given level 4. Yet, almost all of the couples are being given a level 4. So maybe one should take the technical panel and make them do the actual twizzles themselves.
Same applies for the spins, and don't get me started on the step sequences.The discipline needs a serious check up,not to say open heart surgery right now.
D&W are ice skaters, V&M are ice dancers.
I guess the ISU needs to clarify what this discipline is supposed to be. At the moment it seems to favour ice skaters.
I think they want to get out ice dance from OG. Thats why they made this SD, give teams 10th in PCS - all for people start hating ice dance
I want to ask people from D-W thread - what must we talking about to make you happy, guys?
Yes, this. The SD/OD has became more like a singles short program. Do your elements and don't make any mistakes. It doesn't matter if you have the feel of the dance or not. There is barely even time to dance.How are transitions used and why do they actually try to make ice dancing into a " stay on your two feet ,do nothing and get the marks" kind of sport.
ITA, but I will add I don't see anywhere V&M were not crisp and crystal clear in their FD. It was excellent.V/M risked,which means that if you risk you should get more credit even in case you're not perfectly crisp and crystal clear.Because you risk,and this is what sport is supposed to be.
That has always annoyed me about CoP. You find something that's level 4 that's easy for you and just repeat it all the time. No credit is given for added difficulty once you're at level 4, and no credit is given in PCS for the originality of the positions or how well they fit the program. I mean I&K usually get level 4 lifts and great PCS and they have terrible lifts.

Budget Accommodation Europe Italy Florence
Florence is the capital of the region Tuscany in Italy and considered one of the most beautiful cities in the country. Famous for its art and architecture, this city of 400,000 inhabitants is viewed as the birthplace of the Italian Renaissance, home to such famous Florentines as Leonardo Da Vinci, Michaelangelo and Machiavelli.

For the overvalued Firenze city, this place is OK. I'll recommend it for a couple of night if you want to walk around the city. Pros: very close to train station and to "historical center". Cons: noisy street, few bathrooms. Staff was nice. No breakfast and you have to pay for internet and coffee. ... more
Brilliant location in Florence, very easy to find on arrival with clear instructions of how to get there. Large clean room, very comfortable. A little noisy at nights as was on street frontage. Hosts were excellent - vey friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay again. ... more
When we first started walking to these apartments from the train station, we were nervous about the location. The street was uninhabited on one side with lots of cars and buses - a touch sketchy. We found the place after a bit of a search - a construction crew was obscuring the entrance. Checkin is only guaranteed between the hours of 3 pm to 8 pm. ... more

Exate wrote:I thought that we were supposed to make one of every unit type listed, so I did. Anyway, given that there are plenty of real-world locations where the desert is right next to the ocean (the Sahara comes to mind), and that there are some famous One Thousand and One Nights tales involving the sea- Sinbad, for example- it doesn't seem to clash with my flavor to me. And yes, I would like to make one of my ship units a marid, a powerful aquatic type of jinn. It seemed to fit the flavor of the side better than another fairly generic ship type, and I don't really see any reason why the only seafaring units would be ships anyway- there's precedent in a recent text update that there are normal water-capable units as well.
Okay okay fair enough. I guess I'm just used to the previous people ignoring ships mostly because they weren't interested in sea stuff. It's fine that you put them.
Exate wrote:Oh, I'm definitely not looking for long-term predictions through the knights. The flavor behind their abilities in Dune is a sort of mind-over-matter deal powered by believing that what they want has already happened and then reflexively taking the most efficient path to making their belief reality.
I would interpret this in Erfworld terms as sensing and then following the flow of Fate to the desired result. The net result would be similar to some scenes in the Sherlock Holmes movies with his "predict how to win and then do it" sequences. Other potential applications are realizing that going into battle would be a poor idea, maybe sensing ambushes early enough to avoid being surprised, and so forth; nothing which gets too abstract or affects things at a remove from themselves. While the rules as written break this down into "limited mancy, 30 juice and cast spells" personally I'd like to flavor things more as a constantly running strong sense of their personal Fate that they can take advantage of than actual casting.
That would be unusual to run, but I think I can work with it. The problem is in Erfworld Predictamancy is not as awesome as Spice-induced precognition or Bene Gesserit trickery (it kills only animals). So I will do my best to think of a way to work with that for now.
Exate wrote:Well, there are two other existing abilities that grant some form of stealth to compare against: Simple Foolamancy and Burrowing. This is obviously much less powerful than a full simple foolamancy since it's far less flexible and personal-only. As described here it's significantly weaker in stealth terms than Burrowing, which at four points provides not only concealment but also significant protection and movement bonuses. Given that this can't be used while moving, it takes an entire turn to activate, and there is still a chance for other units to blow the veil and see them I can't say this is worth more than two points. At three it would need a significant power boost to measure up.
To be clear, I'd like to apply this to the Jinn, Ifrit, and Marid units since they're the three jinn unit types. This doesn't map strictly into the unit build guidelines; is it permissible or are you inclined to nix it on grounds of unit restrictions?
Yeah... that's something that is bugging me. I didn't put burrowing in, that was an addition of whoever made those rules. Basically, the way I see it is this – Borrowing is basically weak dirtmamancy. Sizemore can do it through his magic, therefore that behavior falls under that particular area of magic. However, it is also basically flying, only using the ground instead of the air. When I went off Stealth I was going by something we've already seen in-setting: the scout unit Wanda croaked who was hiding behind a magic item producing a veil. It was implied he needed to be stationary for that to work, too. I think I may need to revamp burrowing, because even Veils have a chance to be spotted. Why would burrowing be undetectable? I'm thinking there would be a sound able to be heard, or even better a mound of earth moving along. Nothing says they by default should be able to be invisible. As it is you're already getting a free ability to ignore terrain penalties. Thus… I think I will revamp Burrowing now. Your units are no longer invisible while burrowed --UNLESS THEY ARE NOT MOVING, at which point they are considered veiled-- due to either noise or the aforementioned mound of moving earth, but you still are outside of combat range until you come up. It is also now a 3-point ability. So, to summarize – you get to move freely on non-water hexes, and avoid attacks, and a weak sort of veil. That's not bad, it has some advantages over flying and some weaknesses compared to it.

Heritage® Deluxe Challenger Violin Case Black Exterior with Red Interior
reviewed on: 06/18/2014
Holds everything
I bought this case for my daughter, who must take her instrument to and from school daily. It's a nice big case with enough room for everything: her Everest (non-collapsing) shoulder rest, metronome, Snark tuner, required extra set of strings, all her music, etc., etc. She loves it, as do I The violin fits SNUGLY in its cutout, which makes me feel that much more secure that it won't get damaged in daily transit. Backpack straps have movable shoulder padding, which is nice for her comfort. A good, economical, high quality choice.
Toshira TC66 Shaped Violin Case
REVIEWED BY: Anonymous
reviewed on: 06/10/2014
Nice case for 7 year old
We got the 1/4-size case, and it is so light that my son actually wants to carry it to lessons. He also likes the backpack style. The only complaint I have is the strap buckles are at the top of the case so they cut into his back/shoulders a bit when he's wearing it as a backpack. (It does the same thing to me when I'm carrying it.) You would not want to wear it all day, but luckily we only carry it 40 feet or so each week. We are looking for pads to cushion it a bit.
American Case Company® Eagle Violin Case French Style
REVIEWED BY: Anonymous
reviewed on: 06/09/2014
Nice but super heavy
This is a very nice case for the price. The only thing to note is that this is VERY HEAVY, which we don't mind since we just drive everywhere and we feel like the violin is safer in a heavier case.

The American Forum Interview With Attorney General Eric H. Holder
Attorney General Eric H. Holder, in an interview to be broadcast on public television this Sunday (Feb. 9, 2014), made some remarkable comments about the American system of justice, including:
- There are "probably thousands" of Americans imprisoned in the U.S. serving sentences far longer than they should be,
- That the likelihood that many people currently imprisoned are actually innocent is the "ultimate horror" of our justice system,
- And the strong intimation that a wave of presidential commutations for drug offenders may be coming from the White House in the months ahead.
"We have…to make people who are incarcerated aware of that avenue," Holder said, during a taping of American Forum, a public television program I host from the University of Virginia's Miller Center and carried by about 90 PBS stations around the country. "And so I've asked members of the private bar to somehow engage with the people who are in prison so that the appropriate papers get filed, are put into the system, and ultimately the White House counsel's office, and ultimately on the president's desk."
"The president is willing to do these kinds of things," Holder said.
