My way of thinking is this. If I am eligible for an upgrade and a new iPhone is released, I am going to buy it instantly no questions asked. I always need more memory and each release seems to be doubling the amount of memory in the device from the previous design.
So I could care less what it's called. I will get the new one very year because Apple allows me to upgrade every year!
The iPhone organizes my life incredibly well and joyfully. Why is this such a hard decision for so many people? I understand if you can't afford it. If you're broke then don't upgrade until you can.

That will probably hold true next year or whenever the next version is released. I don't recall ever seeing anything other than speculation that this one would be "iPhone5." I don't know what would make "iPhone5" better than "iPhone 4S." It's semantics.

I had a 3G at the time and didn't feel what I considered a few upgrades to be worth the extra $ for the 3GS. Now her 3G is almost obsolete so I'm using her upgrade to get the 4S and will pass down my 4 to her (I'm the heavier user of the phone so she is fine with that). I would now rather spend a little more to get the current one and the two-year contract rather than get the contract and a "new" phone that's already 12-15 months old.
