If there’s no announcement by the end of August, I’ll look for another phone. My ipad makes the iphone redundant anyway.

Without a lower access product, Apple will simply be repeating the Wintel/80′s paradigm where It survived fine with elite creatives until the verge of bankruptcy in the 90′s.

In Android v. iOS, it’s like seeing a car-crash happening and still not trying/able to change course, how did Wintel gain prominence in the 80/90′s? a myriad OEM’s with a standard platform.

Of course, this time, things will be different, non-Apple OEM’s won’t be able to circumvent patents, be creative and improvisational themselves, or source cheaper components forever with natural Market adjustments, and the 250m iOS will be no match for the annual 800m mobile handsets replaced where you can already get sub-$100 android models.

What’s a sign of insanity and expecting different results!!!!!
