[QUOTE=Superwafflez;32770247]Well it did just net over a million pre-orders. That's pretty newsworthy.[/QUOTE] Are you ignoring my point or am I not making it clear enough? A million pre-orders is newsworthy, definitely; but miniscule changes that nobody who uses this will notice(besides the camera/antenna) driving 1,000,000 preorders I find absolutely ridiculous. Fuck Apple fans are rabidly loyal.
Fuck I was going to go tomorrow to buy one. :(
Upgrading from my 3GS. Real happy about it. So much buthurt in the thread. The iPhone is a great device and you know it. While some of the specs may not be superior to the SGSII, it's all about the OS as well. Give this a good read. It's what made me decide from SGSII to the iPhone 4S.

This happened with the iPad 2, I ordered mine a day after it released online, and ended up having to wait almost a whole month for Apple to get a new batch ready. I'd like to upgrade to an iPhone from my basic phone but I guess I'll have to wait a long time for that now thanks to idiots ditching their unscathed iPhone 4 for an iPhone 4S. I'm certainly OK with Apple keeping their products refreshed each year, but the buyers are ridiculous.
[QUOTE=Meller Yeller;32771292]iPhone is a good device but it's dumb to buy the newest version every time when there's only like one new feature that other phones already had[/QUOTE] I think this is sorta why FP is mad. Apple could literally market a rock and people would buy it, while an android device can print money or some shit and they wouldn't. Example: [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FL7yD-0pqZg[/url]
WAAAAAAAAAAH STOP LIKING WHAT I DON'T LIKE it's a good product, deal w/ it. some people prefer ios over android.
"Apple could put a logo* on a broken toaster and sell millions of them."
I initially thought that they were talking about aircraft carriers. "U.S. Carriers"
[QUOTE=The Baconator;32771732]"Apple could put a logo* on a broken toaster and sell millions of them."[/QUOTE] I don't think that's necessarily true, the Apple TV was never that much of a hit, and Mac's still aren't selling nearly as well as Windows based PC's. Plus there's Newton, which never really took off either. iPhones and iPads continue to sell like hotcakes though.

Macs are just expensive, but people consider them "superior" goods to Windows PC's.

[QUOTE=superstepa;32772134]I don't know, I occasionaly meet people who say me: "You use a PC? Go kill yourself, MAC has better software"[/QUOTE] there are people that say the same thing, but with PC and Mac switched

I know someone who preordered it to upgrade from his 3GS. Everyone is not rabid fanboys that upgrade every generation. I don't know where you get that idea, goddamn.
[QUOTE=The Baconator;32772121]Well Apple TV isn't some portable show off thing.[/QUOTE]Well I guess it [i]is[/I] kind of hard to show off how much of a hipster you are with your Apple TV :v:
[QUOTE=pdp;32772160]there are people that say the same thing, but with PC and Mac switched[/QUOTE] Don't act like you aren't aware it's cool to have a Mac. Anyone who does that with PC and Mac switched are just crazy nerds, and there are allot more "wannabe cool" people than Windows nerds.
[QUOTE=superstepa;32772134]I don't know, I occasionaly meet people who say me: "You use a PC? Go kill yourself, MAC has better software"[/QUOTE] I can't really speak for them but they give us normal Mac users a bad name, so they can go fuck off.
[QUOTE=Stormcharger;32769887]How the fuck are people so dumb[/QUOTE] You're the dumb one here (along with a hefty amount of facepunch) for being unable to understand people like different things. If the product was shite no one would buy it or update it. Who are you to call people dumb in how they spend their money?
All of Facepunch is not "mad" that people are buying the 4S, it's just a few outspoken individuals who can't grasp the fact that it's other peoples money and they can spend it any way they like, including on a pretty darn good phone.
At first I thought the title meant they sold out their iPhones on all the US Navy's aircraft carriers.
Plus, once people have purchased apps, music, and more on iTunes, it'd be obvious why they'd stick with iPhones and things and continue to buy them rather than switching to Android. I've been thinking about an Android phone, but I have so many apps and things purchased on iTunes for my iPod Touch and iPad that to me it's silly to switch to another OS with a whole different market. I want to stick with the iOS phone to continue to get my money's worth on the things I bought.
[QUOTE=faze;32770200]Man, people are really wasting their money.[/QUOTE] It's not wasted money if they enjoy the product
