Ok, so the iPhone 5 is being announced right now by Apple. The screen changes from 640x960 to 640x1136 pixels. On the keynote, they say older apps will have a black border under and above the screen (to preserve ratio I expect). Our BT apps will have this border or are they adaptive ?

I assume they will until you upgrade the graphics and the re-submit with the new SDK.

come on apple send us the iOS6 GM so we can start redesign :-)

//start rant Feels that Apple is running out of steam. Wow, we have a 4 inch screen. Fabulous, an extra row of icons, 16/9 and LTE. Lets see in two years with the iPhone 6 and what Samsung and other's do in between. Now they want to kill Google, Google Maps, Youtube are out, just like Flash before. More control over their very closed eco system. They even succeeded in breveting the design of something that just looks like and an electronic picture frame. And to think, now I have to spend a couple of hundred bucks on this new phone just to test my apps. Come on Apple, wake up, make something new, instead of signing big checks to your lawyers. //end of rant

@paddy the new phone is the same price as the the old iPhone 4s, do you buy a new phone to make all the different sizes that android as ? plus even adobe and android is catching up to the 2007 announced 5 years ahead iPhone by dropping flash, and they didn't kill google on their OS they gave users the chance to use other apps as options. in the end the iPhone 5 will out sell all the other versions.

I don't like that fact that "older" apps will be centered in the screen at their old size. That's gonna look ugly..the way iPhone apps look on an iPad. Barf.

Every new iteration of iPhone has sold the same amount of units as the previous ones, COMBINED. It will sell. Muppets like me are scrambling to find the best way to get one. Not due for an upgrade until June 2013. Hmmm. @Paddy - I agree with you mate but it is harder and harder to innovate now, just a case of improve iOS, bump up memory and proc speed etc. NFC was never going to happen, not reliable of accepted enough. @Paddy and @Mark - The black border will be an issue but not too bad. Luckily I am in process of switching all my apps from 1.5 to server so it gives me some impetus to get it all done. Lots of work ahead, about to buy your plugin @GoNorthWest, review to follow! Right folks, off to dig around in loft to see what I can eBay to get the cash for new phone. HTC Inspire, iPhone 4s and some selling my good ladies wedding ring may just get me there. I'll be divorced but will have a shiny new object.

@MacApple Check out first to see if your shiny new object has network 6 foot under. That's probably where you'll end up if your sell that ring ;) Will moving from 1.5 to 2 change something for the screens ?

@Paddy, I hear you buddy, no ring then. Moving to 2 was just my workload for next few weeks but means now I can resize images etc for new screen size.

The new Touch looks nice and shares same L x W as the iPhone. I will have either soon.
