nice. looked online and i was at 605 on the rogers site but now i check and my number is gone and says "in progress" instead. check the detail and it says "shipping process has started, additional changes cannot be made blah blah blah"

looks like i will get my 64gb on release date!!!

Contacted Rogers about unlocking the iPhone, and they said that those unlocks found on Craigslist or Kijiji cannot be reversed by the carrier nor Apple. Once it works, it works forever.

The rep I talked to actually recommended that I do that instead of buying out a contract and paying the additional $50 to get it unlocked. He said if I look hard enough, I could find people doing it for roughly the same price that they do it for.

That's impossible. We all know Apple only takes other people's components and slaps them together. They don't invent anything, let alone an actual processor. And those 1,000's of engineers they claim to have are really just marketers.

They probably bought a Samsung or Qualcomm processor and slapped their name on it.

I thought 16 would have been enough when I got my 4S, but after I loaded up all the company PDF's I had hardly any room left. So I got myself the 32 this time, but my wife has to settle for a 16. :)

Will we see double the benchmark score on the A6? :D

SkinnyPupp 09-15-2012 09:46 PM

CPU-wise, double the performance will put it right in line with the S3 or HTC One-X. But it will probably be way more power efficient, and built ground-up for their infrastructure, so will likely seem a lot faster to the end user. The iphone 5 should seem a lot smoother than those two phones subjectively.

GPU wise it won't even be a contest :fuckthatshit:

iPhone 5 has 1GB of RAM running at 1066MHz from Samsung

gross display of marketing? really?

its rather typical actually across all fields; can be amusing too like the car ones

Harvey Specter 09-15-2012 11:26 PM

I like Samsung's ad because not too many companies would have the balls to put out a bold ad like that even if it creates negative backlash which I'm sure it will.
