| | | Tom LaSusa | | | | Last week I talked about the rumors circulating on the iPhone 5S and whether or not Apple has peaked on innovation with the device. Many of you had some interesting thoughts.
Glewis believes: "Not only are expectations too high, companies should find other ways of making money other than filling junkyards with perfectly good products. On the other hand, an LED projector in an Iphone could wow me to upgrade, but not much else. In fact, the limitations I've experienced in Apple products in general has caused me to switch back to Android."
William worries: "Maybe Apple needs a new Management Team. I would hate to see the death of a great brand. With all of that cash they have piled up, I can think of a lot of wow factor they can come up with--relatively inexpensive--that can drive value for their shareholders, their image and their brand."
Merton says: "Regardless of the brand name under which it is sold, I can see no meaningful innovation in the smartphone market. Apple is likely to maintain its position as the leading brand in the market while losing marketshare to the myriad of vendors selling Android smartphone devices."
Direct and to the point, Dee adds: "I see no reason to upgrade my iPhone 5. It does everything we need...now figure out and give me something I want."
And on an unrelated note, welcome back Game of Thrones -- we've missed you!

It is my somewhat educated opinion they're doing it to give a boost to the miserably failing WinPhone, believing that tablet/phone is where the future money is."
