Possibly Apple have to gauge this next step very carefully, the 3GS was an improvement on uthe 3, but the ip4 was a massive leap in both internals, software and the now iconic form.
The jump from iPad -iPad2 technology leap was big, the case was slimmer bur looked like a big ip3gs.
If the next phone is a 4s look alike, it will be better but is that enough to make it worth while in sales, against the production and tooling costs?
The fanzine will the buy because its the latest, while the general public users my well buy up the existing very capable models throttling down potential sale of the new device.
If indeed it is a true ip5 and not a tarted up 4s, IMHO it will have to be as startling and beautiful departure both in form change, looks and performance on the scale that the ip4 was, or i fear there will be a massive disappointment and perceived feel of 'under achievement', handing ammunition to the competition who will claim Apple have lost their innovative way.
I don't think an 8m camera and 4g will be enough, it's Apple -we expect more if only for the bragging rites .
