IOS 6 will be released on the 19th and this should make the 4S almost as good as a I Phone 5. That is the big plus with Apple you can update your existing device easily and keep them current. My MacBook Pro is 4 years old and still going strong.

Sure but Apple will inevitably, sooner than later, render your device obsolete when a new OS comes out that is not supported by older hardware. We just sold a Mac Pro (not a MacBook Pro) that no longer was upgradable because its Intel chipset was not supported by the newer OS versions. Same thing with the iPhone 3G not working with iOS 5.
I know that is the way it goes with Apple and people can take it or leave it but I can't agree that Apple helps users stay current with a simple OS upgrade. They don't make any money that way.
