Nameless Being
 
Pretty boring iPhone stuff, but that is what we expected. Incremental with a few cool new features, but nothing to make me want to trade up my iPhone 5. Actually, I like the looks of my 5 more than the 5s. Not that it matters as I hide it in my Otterbox Defender case!

Maybe in October? No new iPods either. Really boring event this year!

I'm hoping for an iPad Mini with higher resolution this year, but the rumormill is deafeningly quiet on that front.

Not that I am upgrading my iphone 5 but the fingerprint scanner bothers me, if its used to open the iphone what about more than one member of the family using the iphone? Hubby and I share mine.

''Fingerprint scanner confirmed, called "Touch ID". Built into the home button. Fingerprints can be read in any direction. The home button is made of sapphire to prevent scratching. "You can simply touch your home button to unlock your phone." You can also scan your fingerprint within apps to do stuff, like authenticate iTunes purchases.''

I think they said it could remember multiple fingers. If so, then they could be from multiple users.

I was under the impression that it would be a standalone and compatible with older devices; like my iPod touch 4.

That part may be, I don't know. I guess what I meant was it would launch when iOS 7 does.

I don't know if the scanner can handle multiple users, but the keypad isn't going away.

The iPod touch 5 gets iOS 7, but your iPt4 was pronounced dead at the scene like you predicted! I think they might stop the iPod touch line if the iPhone C is a success. I doubt they will kill off the rest of the iPods though as they sell well. The iPod arguably saved Apple and made it the mega corporation it is today.
