Not at all it was awesome. What, you think because the iPhone 5 and a bunch of other stuff got leaked it diminished from the show? They had a huge amount of stuff to show off. iPod Touch was a particular highlight for me, that thing is going to dominate. Love the colours too, very classy indeed.
 
Really want that new iPod touch - price is a bit steep, i think its because it only comes in 32GB and 64GB :(
 
This is bullcrap... almost all phones can upgrade to iOS 6...sure, but that doesn't mean you will get any of the new features we just saw demo'd...

1 Flyover and turn-by-turn navigation are available only on iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPad 2 or later, and iPod touch (5th generation). Cellular data charges may apply.
2 Siri is available on iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPad (3rd generation), and iPod touch (5th generation) and requires Internet access. Cellular data charges may apply.
3 FaceTime video calling requires a FaceTime-enabled device for the caller and recipient and a Wi-Fi connection. FaceTime over a cellular network requires iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, or iPad (3rd generation) with cellular data capability. 4 Availability over a cellular network depends on carrier policies; data charges may apply.
5 Offline Reading List is available on iPhone 4 or later and iPad 2 or later.
6 Made for iPhone hearing aids require iPhone 4S or iPhone 5.
7 Panorama is available on iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, and iPod touch (5th generation).

So if you "only" have an iPhone 4 and not the latest 4S, bad luck bro! :(
 
And even if we COULD get Flyover and turn-by-turn navigation on the iPhone 4, or you can afford the iPhone 5, bad luck again...doesn't work in SA!

This blows... there are some nice updates....for people that live in the US...for us...not so much.
 
Yeah it's ok but mostly meh. Guess it goes some way in explaining all the lawsuit action going on lately.

Pricey as expected.

But would you fancy balancing your new iPhone 5 on top of one of them plugged into your old docking station? I've got a R700 Philips number so not so bad for me, but sorry for the guys who shelled out for the B&W or Bose jobbies....
