All great changes so far. Impressed by how light and thin it is. And 8 hours of browsing on LTE? Amazing.

Yes, rather underwhelming. Basically they stretched it and added LTE. And funny how now they're saying 16:9 is so much better, when they've been drumming the 3.5", 3:2 song for so long.

If actually true, that comes from the QCOM baseband they use. Apple would never be able to design that themselves.

The only thing I see/hear about it that has me even remotely jazzed is the better front-facing camera. Other than that, it's...seeming to be yet another incremental yearly update.

It takes a lot out of the Apple mysticism when the only unknown feature is the addition of a slate color.
