Why the next iPhone WILL be called iPhone 5, not iPhone 4S or anything like that
This is for all the whiny people who keep predicting that the next iPhone update isn't gonna be called iPhone 5.
Do you not realize, they called the THIRD iPhone the iPhone 3GS because they can't call the third phone the 4th!!
They were just getting the names back on track since the second one was called 3G rather than iPhone 2.
So they aren't gonna throw the name off sync again.
Now next person to say it's gonna be called iPhone 4'XX' gets a smack!

ehhh i dunno, with ATT's 4g roll out, it would make sense calling it the iPhone 4G, but after "death-grip" they may move far away from the name "iPhone4"
But me nor my credit card cares what it's called, i'm getting one on launch day

I come bearing a gift. I'll give you a hint. It's in my diaper and it's not a toaster.

I would wager more towards them distancing themselves from the name "4" due to the antennae issue. It should be called the 5.

As long as it doesn't follow the 3GS's steps and look the same as the iPhone 4. Exactly why I skipped the 3GS. Sure the hardware was better but seriously... New phone should = new look.
