Sure it is, just throw out mediocre product updates, bribe politicians to pass weakly defined, extended, pro-corporate/exclusivity IP laws, and sue the pants off your competitors for daring to come up with a competing product.In the face of renewed competition is an incremental improvement enough?
I wonder at what point in May they decided they best not call this the iPhone 5
Apple shares are down on this, hardly surprising. It's just catching up with the latest from HTC and Samsung, who are chucking out new phones like they've hybridised them with horny rabbits and let them breed.
The screen is pretty small in comparison to other high end handsets and the lack of a SD slot is making that memory very expensive from the go... Apple will have to do more than this surely?

I pre-empted this by getting the Galaxy S2 a few weeks ago. I have to say it's awesome, and I'm really really happy with it!
For me, Apple are on the way down: terrible legal stance, overpriced hardware which (in my experience, I use 2 mac pros and a macbook pro at work) is quite slow and unstable to go with it, and some of the very worst advertising in human history. I'm quite happy to see the very dejected opinion of today's launch. Welcome to the real world, Apple!
But will someone release a special edition fixie bicycle for it?
throw new ArgumentException (String, String, Exception)
2x Faster performance, 7x faster graphics, better battery life, Siri, much better camera, and then iOS5 to add on top..
It may just be me, but I'm definitely getting myself on the pre-order list for this!
The update is not that bad. In the CPU stakes there are better phones,but it does look like the iPhone 4S might even have a better GPU than the Samsung Galaxy S2.

If it doesn't look any different why will iPhans upgrade - nobody will be able to tell they've got the latest one or not!
Apple need to give away T Shirts with "I've got a 4S - yes a 4 with an S on the end of it"
It looks like I was wrong about the CPU:

As I said earlier on Facebook: Siri looks interesting, but I wouldn't use it, because I'm not a nob-end that speaks to my phone
