If you have multiple lines with AT&T, they can 'use' the upgrade eligibility
from another line to give you the 2-year contract rate. You are then
signing up that line (in this case, my wife's) for another 2-year
committment. They don't care much who gets which phone, just that they get
lines locked in for 2-year commitments.

Here's the poop I just received from my "personal" AT&T rep regarding 4G
coverage and availability:

"The phone is not LTE compatible.

. It takes in our highest speed which is 3.5G or HSPA+ speed with
download speed of 4 megabits per sec. LTE will have faster speed up to 10
times as fast.

. You may pre-order this Friday, October 7. "

Still unsure whether I should upgrade from a 3G.

I think I would upgrade if I had a 3G.

I have a 4 and while tempted ...... Probably will not. Mainly because my contract Is not up.

Personally. I am thrilled with my I4. And will wait to hear more compelling reasons to upgrade

Thx

I think the 4s is a good upgrade from a 3G. It's up to you if you think it's a good enough to upgrade now or wait until next year. I'm waiting until next year.

A 3G is an old device. Most apps are not updated for it anymore. You can't even update the OS for it anymore.

Unless you want to live with a product that can't be updated, I suggest upgrading.

I have a 3GS which was the equivalent for the 3G of the current upgrade for the 4. The 3GS had so much more speed and improved function over the 3G that I am going to upgrade. I like the "in between" contract eligibility - I get a version that has all the kinks out of it (remember antenna gate) and better hardware. It may be a great time for you to upgrade and so be eligible for the 2nd iteration of future versions.
That is my humble opinion.

Sent to you by Brent via Google Reader: What Do iPhone 4S Pictures
Look Like? Here Are Some Examples via App Advice by Alexander Vaughn on
10/5/11



As you know, one of the key new features of the iPhone 4S is its
incredible camera. Indeed, it€ ¢â' '¹s not only faster, but packs an 8MP
sensor, a larger 2.4 aperture, and an amazing IR filter that will make
colors look better than ever. Many of you have been asking to see how
it performs, and Apple complied by posting some unedited first shots.

Here they are (tap to enhance):







In comparison, here is what Apple was able to pull off on the iPhone 4
last year:



Then here is an iPhone 4 shot (on the left) and iPhone 4S shot (on the
right, resolution had to be lowered), to compare :

It means being able to run EVERY app and EVERY app feature
and as many as you want not a small subset of features that
Apple limits the iPhone to.

Most of the limitation on iOS Apps multitasking is because the APPS are not written to do so.

5 Things We Can€  '²t Wait to Say to Siri, Apple€  '²s Virtual Assis

Things We Can€  '²t Wait to Say to Siri, Apple€  '²s Virtual Assistant

Grab from Apple's video

Apple€  '²s new Siri virtual assistant will let iPhone 4S owners request songs
by voice, and music app developers will be able to let Siri control their
apps, too.

Never mind the haters; Apple€  '²s iPhone 4S offers plenty of new
stuff<http://evolver.fm/2011/10/04/apples-big-announcements-cheat-sheet-for-music-fans/>,
including a much faster processor called A5 and a virtual assistant named
Siri.

Her processing demands are such that Siri will only be found on the iPhone
4S, which has that faster processor, and not the new iPod Touch. (We€  '²re
waiting for Apple€  '²s confirmation but its description
<http://www.apple.com/ipodtouch/>backs that up.) This looks to be a massive
step up from the first voice-controlled MP3 player I ever reviewed, the
ill-fated eDigital Odyssey
1000<http://reviews.cnet.com/mp3-players/edigital-odyssey-1000/1707-6490_7-20845399.html>
.

Siri accesses Wolfram-Alpha, Yelp, and possibly other services on the back
end to answer your questions, and will integrate deeply with many of Apple€  '²s
own apps, such as Calendar, Weather, and Reminders, from day one, Oct. 14.
[image: evolverfm] <http://evolver.fm/>
We asked Apple on Wednesday to confirm that third-party apps will be able to
accept voice commands from Siri and will update if we receive clarification,
but we already know <http://www.apple.com/iphone/features/siri.html> that
Siri can take dictation and send it to third-party apps. That means we
should be able to say things to tomorrow€  '²s music apps using Siri, including,
we hope, the following. (And yes, we realize that music apps will probably
have to pause the music to accept voice commands if we€  '²re listening over
speakers.)

*1. €  '³Rock me, Amadeus.€  '´*

Right out of the box, Siri will let you ask for specific songs by saying
€  '³Play €  '±Rock Me,
Amadeus<http://evolver.fm/2011/06/17/what-if-mozart-was-on-facebook/>€  '±'´
(or whatever other song) to recall the timeless musical
stylings<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y17IDFZLRA0>of Falco €  '· even if
you have it stored on iCloud and not on your phone. (You
can also ask her to play a specific genre.) Surely, at least one
enterprising developer will patch Siri€  '²s voice dictation onto a music
search, so that we can tap the button and simply say song titles, the names
of Spotify/MOG/Rdio/etc. playlists, our streaming radio stations, and so on.
This will be great for the
car<http://evolver.fm/2011/07/18/best-iphone-music-apps-for-not-crashing-your-car/>
.

*2. €  '³Tell me more about that band.€  '´*

Speaking of listening to music in a car, it rules, because you€  '²re
(hopefully) not doing much else other than driving and listening. Pretty
much everywhere else, we€  '²re doing something else as we listen. The downside
to enjoying music as you drive, though, is that it€  '²s hard to do research on
a band. In addition to €  '³liking€  '´ the band or otherwise tagging the song,
we€  '²re looking forward to asking Siri to read the band€  '²s biography, or
perhaps even help track down audio interviews of the band. That way, we can
learn more about them while
keeping<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PNigNUD8CKo>our eyes on the
road and our hands upon the wheel.

*3. €  '³Gimme a laser down the road that I must travel.€  '´*

Lyric searches are among the most popular on the entire web, so clearly, a
lot of people out there want to figure them out. For now, Apple has only
confirmed that Siri will output straight dictation. But it would be nice if
Apple manages to integrate some of Siri€  '²s deeper intelligence into its iOS
SDK, so that even €  '³sounds-like€  '´ lyrics can get picked up by lyric apps. This
would have helped me out immensely during the Mr. Mister
days<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=belrNpqqA2g>
.

*4. €  '³Always play this song when I€  '²m here.€  '´*

By coupling Siri voice commands to the iPhone 4S€  '²s GPS information, app
developers should be able to let you tie songs to specific places using your
voice. That way, an app can send you a location-based Reminder (another new
iOS 5 addition), so that you can play the same song the next time you€  '²re
there €  '· and do it all (mostly) hands-free (you have to tap the mic icon to
issue a command).

*5. €  '³Send this song to Facebook/my friend Bob/my road trip playlist/etc.€  '´*

Apple says Siri can take dictation and post it to Facebook. We€  '²d also
appreciate the ability to post whatever song we just listened to, along with
a comment. While we€  '²re at it, it€  '²d be nice to be able to send the song to
other places, too, like into a playlist or to a specific friend.

Sure, we could accomplish all of these things with screen taps. But voice
will always be easier while driving or jogging, and besides, there€  '²s just
something about telling a machine what to do that€  '²s cooler when you use your
voice.

Any app being able to run in background. Not all apps can. Apple doesn't allow it to ensure the battery life isn't jeopardized.

Real multitasking would be like shooting a video in Silent Film
Director and while it's processing that I want to read email. After
reading some email I go back into SFD and it's done processing.

Battery life is very important for a lot of people. Don't developers have to write multitasking into their apps? For what I do, multitasking on the iPhone is just fine.

Sprint will offer unlimited data plan for the iPhone 4S

Posted by: "Bill Boulware" bill.boulware@gmail.com   boulware0224

Considering their $20b order I guess they are hoping to score a lot of
people wanting unlimited data...

http://www.engadget.com/2011/10/05/sprint-will-offer-unlimited-data-plan-for-the-iphone-4s/

Sent to you by Bill Boulware via Google Reader: Sprint will offer
unlimited data plan for the iPhone 4S via Engadget by Brian Heater on
10/5/11
A Sprint spokesperson gave us a ring to let us know that the newly
announced iPhone 4S will be eligible for the carrier's unlimited data
plan. According to Sprint, pricing will start at $69.99 for unlimited
data and 450 talk minutes, with the Simply Everything unlimited calling
and data running you $99.99. At the very least, the company's
confirmation that the plan is sticking around will help the third US
carrier to nab the iPhone stand out among its predecessors. We'll add
some PR as soon as it hits.
