As a customer, I am happy for the price drop. You must be some mad shareholder.

No. After that security hole in 6.1.1 All Apple users are really waiting for fix before they start accessing web again :)

Aww, don't be mad that Apple cares more about getting money than actually getting their products into customers hands. Seriously, Apple fanboys are the only ones who find price drops bad just because they don't get any.

what I dont get is that if every Android device has a price drop right after launch day.. why did they keep piling up to get it launch day?
ps..never said that price drop a wrong thing..

I know Samsung is the king of Android but I want HTC, Motorola, Samsung, Sony and LG to all do equally well. You can't count on one player to win a championship each year. Since we can't count on Apple, WP and BB to bring the pain each and every time we got to look in house for competition. As Android users we got to band together and understand that Samsung vs Apple is not the real battle; it's Android vs Apple. It's harder for Apple to kill a 5 headed snake than a 1 headed one.
Apple fanboz take pride in having these leads but it means nothing when you have only 20% of the total market.
From a Samsung Note 2 owner!

I'm giving up on Apple. If they're serious about competition we wouldn't be talking about how stale iOS has become and a screen bump that was meaningless after a major refresh. Nokia is in bed with Microsoft and will not make the logical move to Android. And BB is near death with obvious flaws in their fresh OS.
A 4.8 to 5 inch 1080p iPhone with redesigned iOS would make a lot of Android people turn to Apple. But their not willing to even try and rather sale incremental updates to i$heap. And people wonder why Samsung is doing so good.

Iphone users only use the iphones to facebook taking pics and lesten to music and they cant even do that any more since they put headphone jack on the bottom so yeah no surprise!

I'm due for an upgrade soon. My decision will be an android phone, probably the SG s3. I will not be buying IPhone 5. It is too small. It has some issues with the new software upgrade, the battery drains at night, there is a security flaw that enables hackers to get the password, and it does not have NFC. Wozniak said it---the iPhone is behind. I don't want to wait for the next iPhone, 'cause who knows when that will be? I need an up to date phone now.
