Iphone is a quality product, just like any good product in market consumers appreciate its value and stay loyal to its updates. I had every iphone since the first generation and never regretted that paid every last penny to get one, and also bought stock for $82 when they were just around . Apple was able to go so far because its product quality and reliability, they realize that the best customers are not the one who walks in to the doors every day but the ones who are repeat. Just like Mercedes , BMW, AUDI, Toyota, Nissan ... all this companies are committed to make things that you buy once and keep it forever. However Apple found the best marketing ever- to give consumers same every year with updates and new design which will be slightly different and will include revolution and excitement just like 1-Touch screen,2-beautyfull design,3 speed,4 best screen resolution 5 the SIRI artificial intelligence in your hands, iphone 5 will probably start making me morning coffee :)

I'd imagine if they're going to increase the screen size, they'll also increase the price. I imagine it will jump by about $100. That said, I imagine everyone will jump on it, anyway, just because of the 4G/LTE functionality.

I disagree. Other parts have gotten cheaper which will make up in the fraction of increase from the screen size.
