Next-Gen iPhone (iPhone 5?)

[Kieran]

There's a lot of rumour going round that Apple have released this on purpose so it'd get leaked and that there is in fact a completely different design around.

I saw a picture on Facebook, where the screen fills the phone edge to edge which looks good if it's the real one. But they are going to have to put something amazing on it to beat the Samsung . I'll always stick with apple anyway, for now.

Lol I swear I've seen that too however it was one of those annoying "Like if you want this to be the new iPhone".
I heard that the packs will come with an adapter or they will be readily available so you can still use your old chargers but with the new iPhone.

I'm personally not a huge fan of this, and I liked having the headphones at the top. I'm planning to keep my 4S for at least another year anyway.

They could, but they like to inconvenience their users for the sake of individualism

I'm fairly certain it's to force users to purchase Apple specific charging adapters from either Apple or companies who pay Apple royalties as so Apple can make more money. I'm not surprised to see you spouting out some random anti-Apple garbage which doesn't make any monetary sense for Apple to do though. Just because you don't like Apple Gomme, doesn't mean they're a religious cult that preaches "individualism" over the corporate objectives of making a crapload of money :rolleyes:

Same, I'm either buying a used Galaxy from my brother or my father's old 4s

I knew you would over-react again to what is a harmless comment Lighten up, although in theory it is to inconvenience their customers to have to buy specific adapters rather than universal ones you find with virtually every Android/WP7 phone, in order to make money.

Weren't you the one preaching in another thread about how customers ought to be protected? Oh wait, you didn't - I did, hence why your post seems to be about inconveniencing customers to make a crap load of money. Not that they need to, when companies like Samsung can make a crap load of money without inconveniencing their customers with daft adapters.

Not that I need to reply to an over-reactive, protective post from you again.

Your statements towards Apple are the definition of over-reactive.

Point out in my post where I stated I am happy about Apple using different adapters (not that they're even the only or first company to do this, anyway). I did not state I am happy about it at all, I merely pointed out to you that Apple does it because they want to make a crapload of money. It's funny, because my statements are typically not really promoting Apple. I point out that the patent system completely is flawed, you jump down my throat and continue smashing Apple and trying to make only Apple look bad. I point out that Apple does something to make a crapload of money, and you "overreact" and think I've handed Apple this big undeserved compliment when in reality I've stated a clear fact which doesn't make Apple look good or bad. *Sigh*, you call my posts protective, but you've hammed the last nail into the coffin for yourself by misconstruing a blatant objective of Apple wanting to making money into some weird sort of cultural/religious ideology that Apple is evil and wants to preach bigger ideas of things like "isolationism". What a load of crap.

As per usual, your failure to read is your one and only weakness, and causes yet another pointless discussion in a thread because "you're too serious" and defensive of Apple (this post is evident of it). Point out the part in my post where I said you were happy Apple did this. You would notice I didn't say this, mainly because you cast aspersions and merely make assumptions because you seem to really like pointless discussions and have the ineptitude to read. Well done David, this is thread two you've derailed.

You would notice a -rep which should act as a sign that your reputation as being reasonable and logical in your approach to discussions is in tatters. Also, well done ignoring most of my post yet again and only reading what you want to read (which isn't there). Jeez.

From now on I won't "Feed the Troll", as you clearly have no interest in reading any posts, and I honestly do not have the energy to further belittle you.

This is why your arguments suck:

1. It's the stupidest thing I've ever heard in my entire life that you actually thought Apple used those adapters to preach a stupid view like isolationism. It's possible you don't know anything about economics so I'll spell it out again for you, companies like to make money. I'm also shocked because I had previously thought you had a decently sound political head on your shoulders, but now that I've seen you take personal vendettas against companies to this all new level, I'm not so sure.

2. A brainless monkey could repeat the sentence that someone doesn't know how to read when you just don't know what to say, and when infact it's YOU who has completely failed to read what I said properly. Then again, a brainless monkey could also repeat insults directed toward a single company, and then consistently never back up their claims as to why that company is in the wrong.

3. Here's the difference between you and I. Instead of just arbitrarily and baselessly telling you that you don't know how to read (like how you've done in atleast 3 different posts in 2 different topics now), I'm going to tell you that you've invalidly read my post, and now I'm going to explain how you have (unlike you, I don't throw around such accusations and then fail to explain them). In your initial response to me you said:

Weren't you the one preaching in another thread about how customers ought to be protected?

And then in my response to that I thought oh, Gomme posted something. I am going to assume that Gomme is capable of reading and processing text, and so I'm going to highlight what Gomme said in green and respond to it directly in green writing as well, and hope that Gomme knows his colours. Proceeding this I told you to point out where I said I'm happy that Apple has different adapters. If you thought for a moment before writing up a reply to me perhaps you would of put two and two together and figured out that maybe the green text I wrote was in direct reply to the green text I highlighted in your reply to me, and that I was agreeing with you that it's stupid how Apple uses different adapters then everyone else (limits the consumer) (I'm using brackets and underlining text now to make sure you actually read what I say before making any further irrelevant and incorrect statements about my posts).

If you read my posts properly in the first place, then you would have learned two things about my opinion:
1. I think it's stupid that Apple uses specific adapters.
2. I think your suggestion that the reason they use specific adapters is completely stupid.

In regards to your reputation, the other day I considered gifting you negative reputation and explaining that I'm disappointed in that instead of arguing facts and backing them up, you've begin arguing rude accusations and not backing them up at all. But then I remembered that I actually don't care about reputation, and to further emphasize this point: when I was an administrator I never really bothered deleting my reputation even when others abused this power, so as a member I'm not even going to bother to post in the reputation removal thread. You can give me negative reputation until you're blue in the face, and I could care less. I'm more interested in arguing or discussing the facts of the topic at hand, not prancing about like a little girl and pettily wagging my finger lecturing about reputation, and talking of trolls and belittling
