It looks to me just to be a smaller version and without a keyboard. I've only had my kindle a couple of months but have rarely used the keyboard. I've tended to buy all my book and format thr groupings of books etc. on my PC rather than on the kindle itself. With the amount of books already on my kindle I think it would be a rare occurrence when I'd actually need the keyboard anyway. :)Quote:

And that's about it: the case looks identical, so since my iPhone 4 will have the same OS there's no overwhelming reason to upgrade.
And, apparently, according to the BBC, this is the third most important news story in the world today.
Eh? It's 11th on the BBC News page.
I do wonder if Apple had been working on the '5' but for whatever reason it wasn't ready in time - hence the October instead of the usual June release, but instead decided to put out an updated version of the iPhone 4.
I wouldn't be surprised to see an iPhone 5 or 6 in June next year.
Not sure if this will hurt Apple basically not having anything particularly new on the table until well into 2012 at the earliest.
Well they've missed out on Xmas at least. This is the problem with only having one product available in their smartphone range whereas new Android phones of various flavours come out every month.
Not on the international version it wasn't!Quote:

It seems that you're a bit behind the times on this Dan so here's some easy to understand info that sets out some background for you. I don't endorse any of it BTW as it's just Janet and John stuff. If you want professional advice then it costs a bit more. I don't generally work for nothing ;)

So, you can bring your 99.999999999% safe machine (which you download strange files to :rolleyes: ) in to work quite safely.
I will be getting the new iPhone.
I skipped version 4 so I'm happy that I will be getting a new juiced up version compared to my current G3 that has served me so well.
:s mokin:
It certainly seems to be the case that the integer iPhone increments come with significant exterior design changes (i.e. iPhone 3G to iPhone 4), and suffix letter increments come with significant internal changes but little external change (iPhone 3G to 3GS, iPhone 4 to iPhone 4S).
I guess it comes to a point where you have to wonder how any phone manufacturer can change the externals significantly to improve upon the design? I suppose the key thing is to have the 'buzz' around your new item in order to make people want to buy it. Apple have done this well in the past, but can they sustain it?
