This update is a bit like the 4S + 4 rolled into one. Really liking it.
Yup, the time-honored Dock Connector is about to go.

Clearly, “Lightning” must support Thunderbolt. Right? (Or not?)
And yes, it IS a reversible connection. No one said the CABLE had to have 2 sides of contacts!
And yes, the adapter is FUGLY and impractical. SELL. AAPL. NOW!!

Meanwhile, Apple resisted the first effort to sell the news, bouncing off 657 to 664 at 1:40 EST.

We may have liftoff.

That was a pretty weak effort to take the stock down. We’re now up over 1%. No time to look at charts, but it appears my stink bids this morning will not be executed.
Turn by turn directions on GPS might be a big selling point. If it works better than the other GPS systems out there. Easy to keep the nav maps up to date, too.

A little hop about Safari, full screen browsing and sharing tabs.
But now the big one—Passbook. edit—dammit, too quick.

I would really like to see live TV broadcasting of Apple events, at least the major ones. I know there would be risks of technical glitches, but it would be worth taking that risk, imo. Apple has become such a cultural force, why not amplify the message?

I’m trying to be some hyper-entitled tech snob here.
Apparently I’m selling it pretty well.

Anodized colors. Shades of iPod mini! And it’s aluminum. So long, back glass.
And hello, Jony Ive!
