Impress a lot of women? :D:D

*LOL*

That'd be some odd anatomy to have it on the outside of your thigh. :D

iPhone 6 will probably not impress female celebrities at this time... just saying. :rolleyes:

I think some of them will like it just fine.

Should have better camera and of course the bigger screens should appeal to certain narcissistic tendencies exhibited by the selfies trend.

I also like the current size. I'm hoping they trim the bezels/surrounds and keep the physical dimension of the complete hardware very close to the 5. At one point, bezel-less was a rumor with a very, very minor width increase.

There was/is a report in the NYTimes about the new iPhones and the iWatch not sure how much of this is news but interesting nonetheless. http://www.nytimes.com/2014/09/05/te...seid=auto&_r=1

I hate when manufacturers keep the same number of home screen rows and columns despite increasing the screen size (Samsung, I'm looking in your general direction here :D). All of that beautiful extra space is wasted. I figured Apple would do better than that, so I hope this mock-up isn't accurate.

At least with an Android handset it's trivial for the user to change that.

This wouldn't matter to me. My 45-year-old eyes need bigger things.

Apple has been in talks with InterContinental Hotels Group about a possible partnership for a loyalty program

I wonder what that could be.

Icon matrixes should be user selectable.

Should be. Aren't out of the box on Android either, although there are third-party launchers that are.

15 or so hours until Apple eats their words?

It's much easier to change on Android than on iOS.

My criticism was not just for Apple, though. My beautiful Samsung Galaxy Note 2 came out of the box with the same 4 x 5 matrix as the similarly-timed Galaxy S3. What a stupid waste of glorious real estate. :D

Apple did increase the icon density the last time they changed the screen size, and I suspect the illustration of potential screen size changes didn't worry about that detail. So it may or may not change.

Personally, also having older eyes, I prefer the layout on my iPad over the iPhone. But the 6 icons across the bottom would for fine for the entire screen, and probably one or two additional rows.

This design looks great but would the absence of bezels make it hard to handle?

By the way, any of you guys know if it's possible to watch tonight's event live on the internet?
