Thinnest they've made

50 x faster than original iPhone. So Apple, your bench marking the new one against a 7 year technological advance
CNET live blog is quite fun.

Edit 1: Feed is back. So is the Asian dual audio.
Edit 2: Now working as it should...ish.
Edit 3: Feed is dead again. Back to CNET.
It has built in Strava
Maybe not the best guy to tell me to walk up some more stairs.

I can live without thinner - I might sit on it in my back pocket and break it (and I'm no lard ass).
As for that performance graph, oh dear.
Apparently "the biggest advancement in iPhone history" according to Tim Cook. So far I'm assuming he's referring to the price.

the Wifi and VOLTE calling will be pretty useful - EE are just about to turn on their 800 Mhz 4G network which should give much better rural voice and data coverage compared to the "old" 900 Mhz 2G services on Vodafone and o2. EE are one of 2 partners Apple are working with worldwide to get the tech working.
Some interesting shirts.
do like that 🙂
$499 top whack isn't on that bingo though. I like.

They really should have to state the base cost of the associated 2 year contract too. Cheapest iPhone is $0 apparently 😕
ZOMG! ITZ A iWOTCH!
Only for cool kidz need apply, like this hipster:

I bet Bono's got one.
Anyway, iWatch...meh.
Eagerly anticipating the price 🙂
Blimey, Apple alchemists have even developed a new gold for the watch! Much better that normal gold apparently.
It'll not be cheap anyway 🙂

OFFS.
That phone had better work well 'cos it ain't gonna make it on looks.
I quite like the iWotch for getting around.

iWatch + handlebar mount + offline maps = rad.

Charge your (350 USD) watch every night... err no.
No iWatch for 4/4S.
...also, no wireless charging? Booo!
U2, ugh, the tax dodging good-for-nothings...
Watch is a bit meh. I'll be getting a 128gb iphone 6 though.
For a company that likes to think of itself at the cutting edge, the irony of dragging on U2 seems lost.
Think I could be tempted by the 128GB 6 as well.
U2 are here.
*turns off feed*
So, its like a pebble but sh**ter and more expensive, yeah?

I don't see the point of the iWatch (other than to sell more devices), but the thing about battery life misses the point. It's a computer, not a watch. If you use your laptop all day its battery will also die.

No. No it's not..erm...yeah!
Being able to pay with you watch would be pretty sweet....

I think the iphone6 will be my next phone... I'm liking the look of it. Not sure about the watch though... I think I would only use the fitness side of things.... Making it a bit wasted on me.

Well it doesn't miss the point for me. I agree that it's a "digital device" rather than a watch; but it's yet another device, with its own dedicated charger, which needs regular charging, and needs the phone.
As you have to have an Iphone 5 or above to use it, it's doubly pointless.
Having seen the price on the apple store for the 6 plus did I miss something? I thought I heard 499 USD, which has translated in to 789 GBP for the 128GB, 699 GBP for the 64GB and 619 for the 16GB.

As they said on CNet:
The watch will appeal to people with disposable income...and who want to remain single 🙂
A watch with navigation and cycle stats displayed on it? That'd be handy.
Bit like this really:

For the price you'd be better off just bar mounting an old iPhone.
needs the phone.
Which, for me at least, misses the point. I want to get rid of the phone, not carry yet another device.
Passbook on the watch is quite neat

I have an android wear watch and ViewRanger. It's good for navigation when stopped or going slow enough to take a good look, as it saves digging the phone out the bag or pocket, but IMO couldn't be used on the bars as the screen isn't big enough and in direct sunlight it's not clear enough.
Lol at everyone saying "misses the point" when they've defined what they think the point is themselves.
I think it's cool. The only reason I might not get it is I don't generally wear a watch so I'll have to feel what's like to wear before I splash my cash!
Give it a couple of years and everyone will have one anyway so there's no point fighting it 🙂

I think that type of device is a long way off. You'd have to fit a lot more in the watch as it would need an antenna, GPS, bigger memory which would all need a bigger more powerful battery.
