I was really surprised that they didn’t make *any* changes to the design. Thinner, thicker, different colours or *something*. Smartphones are like cars in the 50s – everyone needs the latest. They should have added tailfins.

I laughed out loud.

Showing off your iPhone is kind of passe. I think the new prestige will be products with no visible changes, but lots of changes under the hood. That was a big part of the VW Beetle cult in the 60s. Apple stole Think Different from VW’s Think Small, why not make the changes inside, not outside?

I suppose people will know it is 4S when the owner starts talking to “Siri”.

Well, when I tell this one I love it, Siri will respond. :D
