Personally I don't like that format on notebooks as I prefer vertical space
for programming, but I'm not asked anything...

So they are adding 176px to the height of the display? Any idea why they would
do that? Apple usually goes for something new exciting, when introducing new
products. "We made the iPhone5 taller and added a few pixels on top, so it can
display 5 icons on the home screen" sounds like the anti-thesis of excitement.

Since the display is larger and a more suitable aspect ratio for widescreen
movies, movie viewing will probably effectively get a ~30-40% larger space.

I've always preferred Apple's 3:2 aspect ratio to the more common 16:9 (used
by most flagship Android phones, like the Galaxy Nexus and the Galaxy S III).
I use my phone almost exclusively in portrait mode, so I think the advantages
of 3:2 in portrait mode far outweigh the advantage of watching widescreen
videos in landscape mode.

Adding the extra row for apps isn't revolutionary or surprising. And that's
fine. I don't think Apple is going to try to sell this larger sized screen as
