Re: [apple-iphone] cords

Ellen, how did the iPhone 5 battery replacement go with your phone and your husbands?

Why are you worried about the cord? If you get a new iPhone, it will come with a new cord, probably another Lightening cord.

Since Apple does not release much about the product before the product is announced at a keynote, what you probably saw was from someone other than Apple. And even at the keynotes, they don't release all the details. The next one is September 9th.

If Apple does release one with inductive charging, it will probably still have a Lightening connector, for data and charging, as a alternative. But then again that is just a guess.

If you have a grandfathered ATT contract, you should be able to bring a new phone to it, just not a subsidized one. Meaning you'll pay full retail.

Thanks for you answers. I saw something mayb a projection that the new phone would come with a charger, it showed a round disc, that
was wireless perhaps and I'd guess with electrical plug in to place the phone on? It was a bit unclear to me so I was unsure what the cord method would be if it didn't need a wireless station to charge it?

But as you all said, we should know soon. I may hold off just a little to see how the new phone is reviewed by buyers. But probably will go for it.
I'm worried about my contract which I do not want to change when I get a new phone, although a salesperson at Radio Shack did not think ATT would
rescind my grand-fathered data package. I guess I'll have to wait and see. The sale will probably be over just about then for the cords, but there will be others I'm sure.
