I wonder if Apple will be able to recover from the permanent loss of Jobs. They were pretty sunk last time. That guy was either a slave driver, magician, or hypnotist. Or a combination of all of the above.

OT: The only thing these “predictions” are good for is to drive the price of AAPL stock up a few points. It means nothing until they have a real world product.

Didn’t the “S” stand for Siri in the previous models. What does it mean now?

Oh wow, another phone identical to the last phone but with an S preceding it. Just magical. Innovation is long dead at Apple.

So the “S” means it will run an outdated device faster?

The difference now is the world seems to be caring less and less.

Yeah, 1 new innovation, as in an extra row of icons. AAPL is junk. its a brand, like Louis Vuitton or some other jerk high end brand that actually is not high end. People coveting their iphones are a joke.

iPhone 5S means iPhone 5S**t. AAPL is a non-innovating has been overpriced piece of junk. Pathetic. Most expensive phone out there, stinks at LTE, stinks at dual GSM/CDMA, no removeable battery, bad battery, no NFC, obsolete OS. What a sad, fat joke AAPL has become.

“it will be breaking from its history of late-year iPhone releases”
Ummm No. It will be returning to the summer release schedule of iPhone 1-4.

ZOMG! APPLE NEWS!

I can tell you Apple will be rolling out a new phone in Q3 or Q4 of 2013, and an S version of aforementioned new phone in Q1 or Q2 of 2014.

I’d even venture out into the wilds of divination to predict they launch another new phone in Q3 or Q4 of 2014, and an S version of aforementioned other new phone in Q1 or Q2 of 2015.

Even more extreme I would hazard a guess that they announce plans to update the iPad and iPad mini along similar timelines.

I bet all of these new phones and tablets result in approximately 1 new innovation.

Rinse and repeat.
