Holy crap that's it.  Sprint is finished with this timing.  They have to sell 30 million iPhones and they're starting with the iPhone 4S?  Today marks the end of Sprint....

will the A5 processor be on the ipod touch too?

No.  Same hardware, more storage and a new color.

[vansmack]

so when is iphone 5 coming out? October?

You mean the iPhone 4S?

Sept announcement, Oct Release.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that the iPhone 5 will certainly not be WiMAX and probably not LTE, but will support HSPA+ and EvDO Rev B.

Got these right.

iPhone 5 will be released just as soon as they have iPhone 6 R&D'd

So, my upgrade through AT&T is due. I have a Blackberry but I keep hearing about RID going under soon [possibly] so instead of a new Blackberry I guess I'm gonna grab this iPhone. Is it 199 even for upgrades?

Yes, it's $199 for any eligible 2 year contract extension.

But seriously, hold the iPhone4S up to the Samsung Galaxy SII before you make your purchase.

I honestly don't really care, as long as it can call and text everything on top of that is just a bonus. If it wasn't for the Twitter app on my Blackberry I wouldn't use it for much outside of texting and calling people. I'm not a huge smart phone buff, if I can watch Netflix really quick on my phone that'd be cool. Plus my current Blackberry is poopy. I just want a new phone.

i'd suggest that you not waste your money on an new iphone or an android, if all that you want is calling and texting.  you can get a cheap, or even free, phone that will allow you to do that. 

you can even get a free iphone 3 when you re-up.  doesn't sound like you need version 4, so why pay $200 or more for it?

HTC Evo 3D or LG Optimus, but really, 3D porn is not for the weak. Be wary of the money shot...

I saw this last night at the att store.  maybe the best phone i've ever seen.
