It's all about choices, Faith. The ones we make, and the ones we don't. Oh, and the consequences. Those are always fun.

I wouldn't be able to afford the newest model anyway so I went with the refurb I found last night. I want it NOW!

what exactly are the rumours saying though, le nub? i went to the macrumours website, but didn't see anything.

technically, i can wait, but i don't really want to. instant gratification is running rampant in me right now.

how long are you having to wait for the refurb, Suzi?

Our wings are not tired

The rumors that I have seen, and there really haven't seemed to be a lot of them at this point, have been so all over the board that I don't know how to believe any of them.

It just goes to saying it's not really that good to base buying decisions on the rumor mill. Leading up to the iPad 2 the rumor mill was ablaze and insistent that it would have some type of retina display and more than 64 GB of storage, neither of which came to pass.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

tiggy,

ND is right. The rumors aren't particularly accurate. However, I thought I saw some manufacturing diagrams from overseas that looked legit to me. If I find the link, I'll post.

What I would expect is the iphone 5 will be thinner, better camera, faster processor. I would probably bet folding $$ on those 3 things occurring. If you are thinking seriously of moving to Verizon, I do think waiting is probably better. I think the new phone will be a significantly better phone for Verizon and may use the new high speed Verizon network.

I'm trying out Chrome again - hot DAMN it's fast.

Anyone know how I can get it to open new tabs from the omnibar by default?
