Apple's new iPhone 5S and IOS 7...
Apple announced two "new" iPhones this week, the 5s and the 5c. The 5s has a 64-bit processor, an improved camera, and a security turn on switch that reads your fingerprint. Not enough, probably, for most owners of the *5* to upgrade. The other new phone is the 5c, which basically is the current model 5 in a less expensive case. The latest upgrade to the operating system, IOS 7, gets released to the public next week. It has a slew of upgrades and improvements, some major, some minor, and it is to be distributed for free. In fact, it already is available widely as a "bootlegged" general release. I like the new Control Center and a few more features. Some parts of it look a lot different, and will take some getting used to... |

My lawyer buddy is also an iPhone freak and has to have the latest and greatest, including whatever software update is current this month. He drives me nuts with it. To show off, he calls someone named "Siri" and asks where the nearest Pizza joint is. Wow. I have a two or three year old cell phone that my wife arranged for me. It's an Android something. (She has since "upgraded" to an iPhone.) Once in a while it will ring. If I happen to hear it, I answer it. Most of the time it sits on a shelf. |

If you like Apple's design style, then the iPhone has a lot of appeal. It also has a few features the competition does not yet have, but for the most part, it is pretty much the same as other top of the line "smart" phones. It does mesh nicely with Apple's computer products, though, and I like that. I had an Android smart phone a few years ago, and it certainly performed as a phone as well as the iPhone. |

I liked my BlackBerry better than the iPhone 5 I have now. The iPhone is a lousy business communications device. |

Why did you feel the need to post this when you could have provide a link to Apple press release. And my Samsung S3 still blows the wifes Iphone away.... It's a great tool and it isn't restricted at all by the size of the internal storage... I don't recall claiming the iPhones were better than any other good smartphone. As for storage, I don't know...I've had a 16GB iPhone for more than a year, and I still have more than 9GB of storage memory "free" or unused. I don't store music or videos on my iPhone, since they are all accessible via wifi or the "network" from my server, and I use the "cloud" for text files I might want to retrieve. I do know smartphone users, however, who keep 32GB or more of movies, games, and audio files on their phones. |
