“It was like the child who convinces himself there will be a pony waiting for him under the Christmas tree even though no one promised one or even suggested such a gift existed.”

And then after explaining how much is new in the 4S —
“So as people start asking me if I’m disappointed, I have to remind them there still was a shiny new firetruck under the tree there Tuesday morning.”
FYI I intend to get one to replace my 16-month-old iPhone 4.
I had this same conversation with my sister while we were following the announcement. She said, and I quote: “Sigh. I will just have to wait longer.
I’m not getting this ugly phone.”
We both picked up our 3GSs on release day—28 months ago. I definitely want to upgrade.
