The iPhone 4S: Faster, More Capable, And You Can Talk To It
What does the "S" stand for?When I ask Apple this, they're vague in their response. They note that some people say it stands for "Special" or "Super". Others say it's for "Speed" much like the iPhone 3GS, the successor to the iPhone 3G. Or maybe it's "Storage" (this is the first iPhone with 64 GB option and with iCloud storage). Or "Sprint" (this is the first iPhone to run on that network in the U.S.)Or perhaps it's for "Speech" or "Siri". Either of these last two would get my vote. The point is, the "S" can stand for any number of things depending on who is using the device. Here's all I know for certain: this is the best iPhone yet.Unsurprisingly, there was a lot of talk in the blogosphere following the unveiling of the iPhone 4S last week. Some pundits seemed underwhelmed by what was unveiled on stage. "Where's the iPhone 5?," many wondered. Arguing over names is silly Apple could have easily called this device the "iPhone 5". But I assume they chose not to for the same reason that some actually felt underwhelmed: the iPhone 4S looksexactly like the iPhone 4. Fair or not, if a device looks the same, many will assume it is largely the same.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/yJpuTQSBlUU/
