I would also say, go for the bigger memory over 3G. Wi-fi coverage is getting better all the time and is free or cheaper than taking out a 3G plan.

Now I've moved out of the big city and live in the sticks I have no option but 3G for the forseeable future. But I no complain - off my phone I just use it for things like weather reports and maps. I even have to use mobile wireless for the laptop - WCDMA or HSPA depending on signal strength. But again no complaints - I get faster downloads than I was getting with ADSL hardwired - for half the price

On my recent trip to HK I noticed that almost the entire island (Lantau/ New Territories/ Hong Kong/ Kowloon) had WI-fi, often free WI-fi. I hope more cities around the globe will follow this shining example.

Well, the rumored i,Phone 5 never materialized. Though the new 4s is lot better specked. They really do seem to be pushing the white model.

[ryanedward85]

The specifications do seem to be a lot better. I bet all those people I saw queuing up to purchase the i,Phone 4 in Hong Kong 2 weeks ago are feeling a little bit sick right now.

Id still rather have an i,Pad myself.

I was walking past a phone shop today and almost walked in and bought an iPhone 4S.. Not even sure why, im happy with my iPhone 4. I had to peel my self away and go get lunch

Apple whipped i guess.. I guess its also knowing that I can get more than half the cost back by selling my iPhone 4.

[Mark Shaw]

If you can afford it, upgrade.

[M.jerrick]

Apparently there's not the big rush to upgrade like there was when the i,Phone 4 came out. Something to do with the fact that physically it is identical to the 4.

[ryanedward85]

Read this, it's very sad.

Very bittersweet.

[ryanedward85]

Physical similarities aside, this is a serious upgrade over the i,Phone 4.

[M.jerrick]

They are selling the new i,Pod Touch 8gig for 200 dollars, I'd much rather pay a bit extra and get the i,Phone 4S.

[Mark Shaw]

I,pod touch is a bit pointless IMO.

Bought the GF an I,phone 4S in White for Christmas. She's super happy.

[Mark Shaw]

What one did you end up having? 3G/WiFi?

[ryanedward85]

32GB Wi-Fi. I love it. Subscribed to various music and movie publications, so plenty to read now.

[ryanedward85]

I'm happy cos I got my MBP back from Apple complete with brand new top half and keypad. Looks brand spanking new. I,phone for me next me thinks.

[TonyG]

According to i,Phone magazineexpect a radical update for the i,phone 5 and possibly also for the i,Pad.

[ryanedward85]

Will be qetting the I,phone 5 when it comes out as my nokia is on its last legs.
