Yes, I see that, you still need the cradle for antenna range, I just bought a new Media/Apps cradle for my M50d, cost was over $425 retail here in Australia, the normal Media cradle is $355.

I run my trustie old iPod into the USB with the Y-cable.

From the days when I had the E53 I have spare Nokia & Seimens cradles, the first two E70's I had came with Nokia's as well, more cradles. My third E70 I changed to iPhone 3, another cradle, then iPhone 4 & 4S, another standard cradle.

Now with the M50d & 4S I bought the "Media" cradle, upgraded to Apps so I need the "Apps" cradle, I have shoe boxes full of cradles, will be able to open a museum soon for cradles.

Its getting to the stage that phones & cradles are throwaway's. Every year its a new phone & cradle, and double that if you have 2 BMW's.

PS. Now in Sept it will be the iPhone 5 and yet again another cradle!!!!!!!!!!!

My ...... I feel like I'm in the dark ages. No cradle for me. No USB with Y cable.
I'm still driving an E-53 with an aux input. Even if I got an iPhone 5 I would
Still be using the headphone output anyway. Hope it still has one!!!!

Another leak; this time the front glass lens.



Home button is smaller on iPhone 5, and so is the lower panel.

Some changes in iPhone 5 compared with iPhone 4s
1. Size:
iPhone 4s: Height: 76.65mm Width: 51.60mm Display area: 3.6 inches Thickness: 0.9mm
iPhone 5: Height: 90.25mm Width: 51.60mm Display area: 4.065 inches Thickness: 1.00mm
2. Transmittance:
iPhone 5 is better compared with iPhone 4s
3. The camera hole of iPhone 5 glass lens moves from the left side to the right middle above the receiver.
4. The light sensor hole moves from the top to the left side of receiver. Also, it becomes very small.
5. Home button
The diameter of home button hole of iPhone 5 glass lens is narrowed 0.3mm. That is to say the iPhone 5 home button will become smaller and the iPhone 4S home button will not fit for iPhone
6. Anti scratch ability:
The anti-scratch ability of iPhone 5 is better than iPhone 4s
