Id say yes. If you want to store any media at all on the thing you will find yourself juggling a lot. When I travel I throw a bunch of movies/tv shows on there. Plus my current apps. 16 just wouldnt cut it.

The stock has gone from 370 to 530 in a couple months. I dont think it's a buying opportunity.Probably the worst possible time to buy is right now when it's gone straight up for two months.

My dilemma as well. My 16gb iPhone4 is damn near full, so I think 32gb for a device I will use more for movies and i/ebooks is probably necessary.

Think different.
It's back up a bit. I'm thinking (hoping) the rumor movement just happened earlier than normal; the stock run up to $550 on rumors and then fell back last week going into the reveal.

The A5x is the same dual core processor as the A5 except it has a quad core GPU.Yep. And Quad Core Processor (unless they back down off that but that's what everyone's reporting)ATT only LTE Version.

So what's that mean? Same speed as ipad2, but better graphics? Did I miss the RAM spec?The A5x is the same dual core processor as the A5 except it has a quad core GPU.Yep. And Quad Core Processor (unless they back down off that but that's what everyone's reporting)
When it went from 380 to 440 in a month, it must have been a bad time to buy, too. Oh wait...

I gotta disagree. Apple has shown absolutely no signs of weakness and 2012 is shaping up to be one of the most impressive ever in terms of the products they are releasing. I predict atleast a $650 stock price when the first quarterly report after the 2012 Christmas season is released.

I'm pretty sure the video it shoots is true 1080p that can be put off onto your Mac/CPU and edited, or edited on the device in iMovie.
That would most certainly work. iF you have a phone with a healthy data plan and tethering then it makes little sense to pay for the data plan on the device too.

I would personally spend the extra on the 32GB. With the extra resolution I gotta think apps will get bigger and bigger, not to mention HD video and photos... etc.

My 32GB iPhone is full. Wish I had spent the extra $100 on a 64GB model.

In the past when placing an X on a processor Apple has signified it is overclocked. A5 for Ipad2 was actually underclocked to save battery IIRC.So what's that mean?

Yeah, I can't understand why anyone would drop 4 bills on the 2 when the new iPad is just $100 more.

Exactly. They walk in thinking they'll buy a iPad 2, and walk out with a New iPad for just a $100 more.

I think it's a good move. iPhone 28 sounds dumb.

This was my thought as well. Don't really like the standardized naming conventions though. Creates some confusion in the marketplace IMO.

True and I think the numbers may help sales a little. Some people are going to want the highest number.It's worked for the iPod Touch that has never been numbered.
goonsquad
Think different.
Going to make the accessory market more confusing, that's for sure. Same thing happened with the scroll-wheel iPods, they were just differentiated by generation number, which most people didn't know or remembered.

New iPad retina. No doubt.

thanks. Not sure how it affects my data plan but i'm not far yet into the process.I would probably never shoot video with it, was just confused how my phone does it.Thanks againI'm pretty sure the video it shoots is true 1080p that can be put off onto your Mac/CPU and edited, or edited on the device in iMovie.That would most certainly work. iF you have a phone with a healthy data plan and tethering then it makes little sense to pay for the data plan on the device too.

Is apple ever going to wow again? Another ho humm release thats as expected and lower than hoped. Im sure sales, which is all that really matters, soar once again though.

How is this not a 'wow'? It delivered on every single request people were making.

Not quite. I'm still buying it, but lets at least be honest. Realistic or not, there were several rumors out there that didn't come to fruition. Part of that is Apple being a victim of their own success. But part of that is due to the hype they and their fanboys create.

Exactly. Problem is Apple is under such a media microscope so it becomes impossible to completely control the flow of information leading up to an event. Too many manufacturing partners leaking information so everything is basically "known" before it is officially unveiled.

Well for starters, it's bigger than a sheet of paper, doesn't have an 8core processor, doesn't have 1TB Flash memory, and there's no 128MP Camera. Plus it doesn't read your mind and STILL won't support mobile flash. Duh!

Which rumors did they miss on? The touch screen that changed textures? Or maybe the edge to edge, magnet locking, display expanding, holographic projector features?Please they hit everything a sane person expected. This isn't Star Trek.....yet.

Think different.
Apple sent exactly one email invitation to the press leading up to this event. How exactly is that "hype"? Let's be honest here, Tommy. The hype isn't from Apple or even the fanboys, it's from the media and bloggers that live off of page views and channel ratings.

Don't joke about...that #### just ain't funny.
Apple doesn't wow at launch. Go back and see what they said about the iPod at launch. Go back and see what they said about the iPhone at launch. Go back and see what they said about the iPad at launch. In every case, the press and the experts said: Meh. It was the consumer buying it, that signaled: WOW!
