Spoken like a true iDouche.
 
Galaxy S II is old already. Google Prime seems interesting, to which I might upgrade from my Galaxy S. But I'll have see what's on the horizon when Prime comes out.
 
I patented the color that is in the background of this page, please send some $$$ to my personal account or else...
 
I hope they build the new apple headquarters like a spaceship and it will also have propelling rockets, so we can eject them into space.
 
Yay, 2 "news" in one day about the same rumor.
Don't forget to send Gruener there.

Funny that most people think that the galaxy s is a copy cat of the iphone 4 yet the galaxy s was released 20 days before the iphone 4.

Moreover, the two deviced don't even share THAT many qualities. Sure they look alike a small bit, however, aside from that, they are entirely different phones.
The one who is naive enough to blame copycat is just another iDiot who hasn't used the competition, and clearly thinks very superficially because that is all they see.

Anyways, enough debate.

On topic: As much as I hate apple, them coming out with a more powerful phone only increases competition, soooo.... LET THE BATTLE BEGIN!!

Well they do have one thing in common, the CPU in the Samsung Hummingbird and in the Apple A4 is identical. In fact the only difference in both SoCs is in the GPU. The Hummingbird uses a PowerVR SGX540 and the A4 uses a PowerVR SGX535. Both SoCs are manufactured by Samsung.
 
Sure maybe you can make a case for individual phones not being copycats, but the first true smartphone was the iphone. Sales numbers speak for themselves.

You should all get Blackberries... or is that company dead yet?
I'll watch the event and see the specs before I decide if I do or don't or whatever.
 
Maybe they should change the name of this site to iTom's

Somebody's taking major ad money from Apple, unless Tom's denies it .....
 
on October 4th we will finally see apple coming out with a phone that finally catches up with the Nexus and the rest
