Sell all your Apple stock and light your Apple products on ardor , the company “ only ” announced the iPhone 4S Tuesday morning .
Parents know that awful phase baby go through where they have to have everythingjust soand if you get the Jango Fett rather of the Boba Fett , well , God facilitate you . Well , some in the technical school industry plain never grew out of that form ( which , accidentally , is called “ childhood ” ) .
Time to document just some of the tantrums .

Apple rolled out a young iPhone today . Sort of .
Um , nooo , it really did . What it did n’t do is update the variety factor to the bruit teardrop shape , causing initiate to cry real teardrop .
Prolonged sigh could be felt all over the blogosphere and on Twitter , where Steve Brown tweeted me : “ Can I be bummed now ? ! ? ”
You may .
Sure ! If you want to be an over - inner baby , criticise yourself out !
multitude there are a hundred unlike Android OEMs and they boil out forgettable piece of shit on a regular groundwork but there ’s just one Apple making iPhones . You get that , right ?
Wall Street also had its iPhone 5 house of cards burst , with investors shunning Apple stock . Shares are down almost five pct now .
And they ended the twenty-four hour period down a half a pct . withering .
CNet ’s David Carnoy , you ’re next . ( Tip o ’ the antler toShawn King . )
If you were among those who bet your office staff mate that Apple would n’t total out with an iPhone 5 today , congratulations . Give yourself a high five ; you deliver the goods . But if you were on the losing side of that bet and were certain Apple would unveil a in truth novel iPhone with a new frame and a number 5 in the name somewhere , you ’re probably shake your head a little .
That ’s it ? The iPhone 4S ? We waited these superfluous months for that ?
Which is curious because when you go back over the probable “ iPhone 5 ” rumors , that ’s the only dispute between them and what was herald : a new shape and a bit 5 in the name .
As @toldorknownsaid on Twitter :
Most of the dashing hopes I ’m hearing about the iPhone 4S seems to moil down to “ how will other multitude SEE that I ’ve get the new one ? ” .
But what about Siri ? Apple introduced , what appear to be if it ferment , some seriousStar Trek - stratum voice technology . And you ’re complaining about the cast of the corner it came in .
Well , except forBusiness Insider ’s Nicholas Carlsonwho ’s just assuming it wo n’t work . ( Tip o ’ the antler toHarry Marks . )
Apple just announce Siri , a interpreter - recognition service for the iPhone .
I amply expect it to take in . Do n’t you ?
…
Useless .
Well , somebody certainly is .
Does Business Insider really ante up you for this ?
Way back in 2006 , when Apple first introduce the iPhone …
The iPhone was introduced at Macworld Expo in January of 2007 .
… I was very disappointed that the whole thing was built around a touchscreen .
I in full expect it to suck . I had never in my integral life interacted with a touchscreen serving and number away happy .
So mayhap I ’ll be incorrect again .
No , seriously , they bear you for this ?
As Horace Dediudryly noted , “ The last time I saw this much letdown with a keynote event was at the iPad launch . ”
Right . And look how that turned out .
