Ok. Will somebody with more Apple aficionado-ness than me [View all]

Please sit me down and in small, simple words WOW me about the iP5?

Don't tell me about new (technical) features, but tell me how it's going to change the way I think about mobile phones. I want to feel like I did when I saw the original iMac in 1998.

Because otherwise, it's really just a mid-life update to a popular product.

No argument, but a small difference of opinion . . . . Stinky The Clown Sep 2012 #7

Reversible connector is big, and it's faster (the phone and connector) REP Sep 2012 #5

What is a reversible connector... n/t winstars Sep 2012 #9

The pin- plug has been replaced with a plug that goes in either way; no "right" side up REP Sep 2012 #10

Ahhh, so I don't have to mark up the "top side" with a black Sharpie any more??? Very nice... n/t winstars Sep 2012 #11
