Newest iPhone

Verizon offered me $210 trade in value for my iPhone 4S so I upgraded to a iPhone 5S 32GB priced at $300 (plus taxes and other fees). I am not thrilled with IOS 7 but I am getting use to it. I think this special trade in offer expires on October 31 (please check).

My local Verizon store had sold out of iPhones so I placed my order and was told to expect delivery in 3 weeks. The iPhone was delivered to my home in 2 weeks. The setup was very easy but I had to call my Cable Company for some assistance in setting up the correct server ports.

I found the article below very helpful:
iOS 7: how to disable the most annoying new features is a good site to learn about the NEW Control Central, Closing Apps, battery life and many other options. SEE:

More changes to the iPhone and the new Apple Operating System (Mavericks). Just to be clear, it's not that the backup and synch Is no longer possible, just that the 'device' has changed. Now the default is 'iCloud.' Same function, different location.

Keep your thoughts coming guys.

my kid just got the 5s, and while i've never been an apple person, it really is pretty impressive. most significantly, the processor is blazingly fast--much much faster than the previous iteration--and the camera is noticeably better. the small screen, compared to my big screen android phone, seems kinda retro, but iphone people don't seem to care, probably because they all have ipads.

Motorola Android man to the bone. Out in the country the range of Motos is unbeatable, when storm knocked out half the towers and some landlines too with flood, iPhone owners were staring at each other on the top floor, while Moto owners had 3 bars out of 5, sadly not true for Samsungs.
