iPhone 5 - Discussion [READ MOD NOTE IN FIRST POST]

I really dont think they will release the software before the iPhone comes out. They've never done anything different, for any of their iProduct lines..

Yeah as said above they'll probably release the GM seed of iOS 6 tomorrow. Then the full version preinstalled on the new iPhone on release day. With updates rolling out for iOS devices. It'll be handy getting to mess around with iOS 6 on my iPhone 4 before gettin the new phone.

Was nearly going to miss the announcement but can now luckily keep track and follow it on the love blogs. Can't wait for tomorrow.

Does this mean there'll be links available to the seed so you can install it yourself via iTunes? Is the release only to developers though, so you have find yourself a *friendly* link?

I seem to remember doing that before with a previous release.

Some more details regarding tomorrows iPod lineup refresh. Also a possibility of Panorama being built into the camera app. I'd say that will be one of the new software features.

Yeah the GM seed will only be for the Devs. However I remember normal users downloading the Golden Master (from pirate sites) and installing it on their devices, and even though they weren't related to developer accounts the GM seed activated and worked. I'll be waiting the week or two extra and installing the official version. Even though the GM seed is usually identical i'll still hold off.

Ive been running IOS6 on my iPad for a few weeks now. Will probably hold off putting it on my phone though. Want the new phone to feel as new as possible so will wait to try the new software on the new handset. :-)

Not long out of the Apple Store, Boston funny how excited all the staff are ahead of 2mo. The store was pretty busy with all sections except the iPhone Section.

Everyone just waiting for 2mo, head to a Starbucks meself at 10am get live feed of announcements.

Not really if I'm honest. The 'Do Not Disturb' feature is something I will get use from on my phone. The ability to share pretty much anything straight to email, message, facebook & twitter is handy. But the loss of Google Maps & YouTube was a big turn off for me. Thankfully native YouTube App today sorted that. No Siri on iPad 2 unfortunately.

Cant't think of anything else that stands out. The syncing of Safari tabs across IOS devices will be handy when I have IOS6 on the phone. Thats it really.

It's fan made. Although its done well, Apple would make a much higher quality iPhone video.

That's pretty much what's going to be announced tomorrow though, bar finger print scanner ofc.

Nope. @ 0.26 you can see the cheap graphics used to render it. Not Apple's style.

what the hell!

Hey guys so the usual questions are going to come up around this time so I may as well get in there first I bought the 4S on launch day last year will I be able to get out of my contract with O2? And also do the majority of people buy their iPhone from Apple or the network? Whats the difference?

That's all you can expect tomorrow, I guarantee it will be very predictable and underwhelming.

Even if all this stuff didn't get leaked at all, I would still be very underwhelmed. There's fuck all that's special about it.

Would like to see the feature of accessing Bluetooth and Location Services etc quickly. SBS Settings is pretty much the main reason i ever jailbroke my IOS devices. Could never understand why i needed to go through 3 different screens to connect a device via Bluetooth. Silly.

I would agree though that the whole thing points to an anti-climax in 19hrs time.

That is an iOS issue though and nothing to do with a new phone.

And the swipe up for mission control, I can't see apple making that themselves. That's SBSettings' job.
