What's new with the iPhone5?

Apple announced that the new iPhone5 will be available starting 9/21 ( pre-orders begin 9/14). Much of what the rumor mill speculated about this latest phone turned out to be true.

The top 5 features of the new iPhone5 are:
1.  It is taller, allowing room for a 5th row of icons and that makes reading a book, watching a movie and browsing the web easier.

2.  It is thinner and lighter.  Made entirely of glass and aluminum, the iPhone5 is 18% thinner and 20% lighter then the iPhone4S.

3.  It comes with a better camera, 8 megapixel (3264x2448), with a lens that is the same as the 4S, but thinner.

5.  It comes with  the capability to connect to the fastest new wireless data networks, both in the U.S. and overseas.

The new iPhone 5 comes in either white and silver or black and slate, and will be available in the US for a suggested retail price of $199 for the 16GB model and $299 for the 32GB model and $399 for the 64GB model.

A few things to keep in mind...- The Apple iPhone5 will run iOS 6. This operating software will be available on Wednesday, September 19 as a free software update.- The iPhone 5 gets a new connector called Lightning.  That means the new phone won't be compatible with old accessories.  Apple will sell an adapter to work with older accessories.
