    Someone in Apple Japan made a boo-boo.

    http://www.apple.com/jp/retail/ginza/

    Translation:

    Recommended store event:

    iPhone 4S, release.
    On sale at the Apple Store from 8am 14th Oct. Our staff will help you select the right plan. They'll also help with iPhone settings, so you can begin using your phone before you leave the store.

    iPod nano

    New user interface. New and improved fitness features. New clockface. With the multi-touch iPod nano, your possibilities are also multi(ple).


    Straight from the horses mouth so, only an iphone 4s...nothing to get excited about here...

    Yep, looks like its official. The iPhone 5 design we saw is also apparently only a prototype for next years model :(

    *le sigh* I wanted a newer model, not a bumped up iphone 4 :(

    I see that the apple stores online are all down.

    I presume they'll all be back up after 6!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 331 ✭✭taylorconor95


    I assume they are releasing iCloud today if the iPhone 4S/5 is to ship with iOS5? Then maybe we'll finally get Snow Leopard 10.6.9!

    No, after the keynote ends. Between 7 and 8.

    so is the iphone 4s worth upgrading from the iphone4? or should we just wait for the iphone5?

    I'd wait for the iPhone 6. I heard it gonna have a 7" screen. It should be out next spring.

    Don't be silly they're saving the 7" screen for the iPhone 7 which will be out in 2013.....everyone knows that!


    Here's a link to live Endgadget's blog of event, which is best I can find.

    Amazed Apple don't broadcast this live.

    they broadcast it last year live, i watched it on my ipod touch off their website on it, this not the case this year?

    Is it official, Iphone 4S?

    I really don't think it was live, they put it up on their website after the event.

    Now talking about iOS, haven't gotten to juicy bits yet.

    Should we rename this thread 4S rather than 5? :(

    Wtf...

    They're keeping the touch screen nano? :mad: :mad: :mad:

    Maybe they'll make it sweat proof so all the "fitness buffs" they pretend to be selling to will actually buy one?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,517 ✭✭✭RobitTV


    CONFIRMED

    ITS IPHONE 4S -


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,181 ✭✭✭Rick Deckard


    thats that so, ios5 will have to do on the old workhorse until the iphone5 proper comes out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,433 ✭✭✭airuser


    any one tried the Apple site now, unable to access it

    works for me


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,433 ✭✭✭airuser


    Up and running again. was being denied access to it for about 10 mins


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,331 ✭✭✭splashthecash


    V disappointed at this overall... 15/16 months for the same looking phone? what's the point. The only selling point is the assistant which looks great but definitely not enough to sway me...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48 gillen


    Any ideas who the first provider in Ireland will be to get it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,970 ✭✭✭mufcboy1999


    lads does anyone have a link of the confirmed features for the 4s or can anyone just tell me?

    what seperates this from the iphone 4 which i have and thinking about getting this new 1....

    cheers
