I got the 3GS and 4S both on launch day. I am really quite happy with the 4S, so I'm not entirely sold on upgrading. However, I do believe in upgrading on launch days to get maximum use out of a device before the next upgrade. So if I don't do it now, I'd wait at least another year. I will probably end up getting a 5S, but... we'll see.

Your 4s will get the update to iOS7 next Wednesday, so it will be running the same OS as the new phones which includes a ton of cool new features. However, what remains to be seen is if the latest and greatest iOS will slow down the 4s like last years iOS6 did to the original iPhone 4. I'm hoping not.

So who bought one??? I got me a 64GB black (space grey) model today. I had wanted the gold and should have ordered online last night when I had the chance. 99% of stores didn't carry it. But I would rather have a black model now then wait 6 weeks for gold to become available at this point.

What the heck's the point of colored iPhones when 99% of people are just going to put cases over them?
