So, which phone are you getting?

I held off a year because the 5s wasn't appreciably different from the 4s, but I'm looking forward to the larger profile model. Question is whether there's a delay in the 5.5" models as some sites have reported.

This 5 is lucky, I dropped it in the deep end of the pool and was able to save it. But then the screen started separating and they gave me a new one!

I'm going to an Apple Store today, though, and if the phones are in stock I will have to look at them!

due for an upgrade. I DO NOT want the bigger version. I want one that will easily fit in a pocket or purse.

Right now I have an iPhone 5. My contract isn't up until February of next year so it'll at least be that long. I'm thinking at this point that I'll probably keep using it for about another year until I get a new one - wait for the iPhone 6s to come out. Hopefully my current phone will accommodate those plans and not do what my MBP did earlier this year and die about a year before I planned to replace it.
