When I see Apple putting forward as a key feature the number of bits in their processor in a general public announcement... I'm really feeling the "new" product is not really new. In the past Apple was always laughing at the PC ads boasting processor speed and memory capacity.

At least it's running in 64-bit mode, unlike the G5 when it was announced.

That did seem rather bizarre to me as well.

The last occurrence of that would have been almost ten years ago. They've always highlighted their technical superiority in presentations.

Instead of using the iPhone 5 as the free option, they are discontinuing it and using the 4S as the free one.

The leaks contribute to take away some of the awe. Yet, A7, M7, iOS 7, new camera, new flash, Touch ID. It looks new to me.

About the ID fingerprints? Am I the only one so in constant fear and doubt that thinks this would be a great way of bulk collecting the fingerprints of ANYONE?

What do you mean by color profile? Something like f.lux, where it changes the color of the screen?
