Why though ?? for all of Apple's bad business, the iPhone is generally a good product. A good phone.

But if you had to go back to a boring Nokia 3310, or an iPhone 5, i know which i would choose.
I find the OS boring, ridiculously restricted and sickening with its cheesy image and stomach wrenching self masturbating tv ads, but i would hate to lose the functionality the phone does have.
Hopefully a future where were all have to buy iPhones or no phones will never happen, though..

I dont think its a good idea to speak so soon about iPhone5 demand in China, as i said, im waiting until Monday. Watching Bloomberg West right now and it turns out Apple were strict in China due to violence of scalpers at the 4S launch, only people who preordered were allowed in, i bet many also bought online, another thing is that China Mobile, the largest network in China runs on frequencies that dont play nice with the iP5's, there's a number of factors at play here.
Personally i expect the iPhone5 to sell even better than 4S, i bet they report great sales in every market they released it in today on Monday.

Every new iPhone is pretty much guaranteed to sell better than the one before it though. The smartphone market has grown so much in the last few years that feature phones are pretty much budget phones only now.

I say this just to piss Bonovox off
(being cheeky)
I miss my iPhone 5
pictures taken from it are too large for IP4S screen, there is no auto adjust until I pinch out.
I'll be getting it back this week though. then I'll repair it and see if I can trade for another 64GB Unlocked in Black.
Boring: this term is used WAY TOO often without a full explanation (without including restrictions), its almost just regurgitating verbatim posts elsewhere. Icons in a grid, icons in a folder? this is on EVERY damn mobile OS everywhere - there is no difference. Actually the icons on iOS are of better picture resolution quality than what I've experienced on Android (Sony/LG's apart from that generalization).
I have a sinking suspecision that iOS7 or 8 will have a major overhaul a complete UI change; well that is my brain trying to reason with boredom. Regardless I enjoy using iOS because it works for my needs and continues to do so without me requiring to tweak the funk out of it: I do this with computers, servers, exchange mailbox reporting/group/mailbox permissions/VPN troubleshooting of groups/users, creating new VPN groups communications Cisco VOIP, video conference and Cisco Jabbar setups ... I have NO damn time to troubleshoot my smartphone like I used to back in the day. Yes I'd like flexibility, yes I STILL need to record some conversations between my ex and myself (Symbian/Android/BB give me this) ... so I'll be looking to BB10's debut and may jump on board with that new platform (I do Jnr Admin on BES5.0.4 and soon Mobile Fusion for testing before we/IT at work considers BES10 - not everyone likes iOS/Android and the travel costs are insane: $1000/3days, $4-6K for 2 wks, $10K for 4 days in Russia; various sites with Maps running amongst other apps).
I'd like to see what if anything at all those that dislike iOS do like from it, or why people dislike Apple entirely; especially those that have only read about patent news fights or seen someone else's iOS device only.

I'll tell you what i like from iOS.
- a reliable OS that doesnt crash much
- fluid UI and great keyboard when entering text
- tons of apps
- its pretty
But thats about it. Theres a few other plus points but they're also similar to whats available with other operating systems so not worth mentioning.
As for what i dislike about Apple, well we've discussed that before so no need to keep ranting on about me.

You can't make google maps your default maps app... funny how Microsoft got in trouble with IE for that same reason, but its okay if apple does it with their maps.
