Jobs should get it! Now days I think to switch Android and Windows since Apple loosing its track. It is still the best, but grows and innovates very slow. Google has all (better to say "most of") new ideas now and soon in a year or two be number one.

What is so slow? GPU and CPU got faster in a slow way on old iphones, but since the 4s it got even more faster (raised more high) and if they're going slow with innovation are they just improving iphone by one thing because then the 5s would have touch id without animproved camera or a7 chip for example!

No new ideas. Google has flasses, better maps, goigle voice.... Imaging Google not allows Apple to use their services. BTW: I'm still with Apple.

Sorry but nothing new after a touch id sensor and an amber flash on a phone for the first time and 64 bit architecture on a mobile device, motion coprocessor, and a gold edition medal phone? Nothing new huh! -_(\
