Capacitive home button... magical!
Now I can sleep at night.

PS. Eagerly awaiting for news regarding buttons on EVERY other portable device in existence... dang, I just lost sleep again.

...cool. So I can blow some more money on something that does the exact same thing as my phone.

Are my eyes going faulty,or do the pictures on CrunchGear show that there is no flash for the rear camera and no front facing camera for face time?

That is so stupid. The capacitive buttons are the reason I'm staying away from Windows Phone 7. If the iPhone were to get one, I don't know what I would do, because I can't stand the Android interface.

it took apple long enough you get more than 64GB of storage on the products. what a joke it is to have only a max of 64GB of storage on the ipad

Why do they need a home button at all ? Why can't they just add touch gestures in the iOS 5 that emulate it ? Steve Jobs once said he disliked buttons yet they're on every side of iDevices. What the hell ! I'm still waiting for a completely air-tight, water-proof iPod touch that has only a 3.5 mm headphone jack used for charging, USB connection and obviously, audio out.

Make it happen, Apple !
