Apple “blown away” by iPhone 5 pre-orders
iPhone 5 pre-orders went live at 12:01 AM PST this morning, and already Apple has completely run through its pre-order stock of the iPhone 5. In an interview with AllThingsD, an Apple spokeswoman relayed the company’s reaction to the unprecedented customer enthusiasm.
“Pre-orders for iPhone 5 have been incredible,” Apple spokeswoman Nat Kerris told AllThingsD. “We’ve been completely blown away by the customer response.”
Apple is still accepting pre-orders, but unfortunately you’ll have to wait two weeks for delivery. Apple’s latest iPhone model features a larger 4-inch display, super speedy A6 processor, and a new Lightning dock connector among many other great new features. And don’t worry – if you missed the guaranteed September 21st delivery date, you’re not alone. I have to wait till the second week as well… darn alarm clock failures.

Thinking from different perspective of phones where Apple is coming from it simply makes more sense: design of the phone matters on size, thickness, weight, screen, user friendly hardware and the last software user friendly interface... If this is hit on this list when making a phone you a all set. IPhone making similar phone one after another from the design perspective allows iphone not to compete with its own products / other iphones so ey make it simple... Android on the other side tries anything and everything new and what sticks sticks... What does not, well they make different phone that will be missing something else, then when that "something is missing" then make another phone. Technically Android os based phones simply do not have one phone that does it all... Either screen is too big, or screen not that great, or... Etc ... I do not support one or the other but I do see people with Android switching A LOT between the android os phones... Iphone users rarely change it ... If it works why change it!?
