I would wait it out and im sure there will be upgrades coming out a few months later like they have always done. give you a little and you pay a lot more.
Say word :0l

doesn't sound tempting, maybe if I was using a apple 3G/3GS the iphone 5 would be a nice upgrade.

Apple has nice products but it's costly compared to other manufactures who make very similar if not better products. Its prefference...

... Samsung phones are jsut as expensive (if not more on Verizon), yet they don't hold onto their value. A 1 year old iphone is still worth $300-$400. A 1 year old samsung is worth $150-$200.

Same with laptops. They hold their value much better + are much better quality than most pc manufacturers.

To continue to rip off the heard that buys (pun intended) into their marketing.

Only reason to per order is if you don't mind over paying for something that might not be a huge improvement. Then again if you are a die hard apple person you won't mind the lack of improvements for the premium. No offense.
