Calling all Fanbois!

The company secretary (my wife) is looking forward to receiving her second hand iPhone 5 next Friday as she is fed up with the iPhone 4 and its defective home button,

Just turn on the virtual home button

I did read that trick ages ago, don't know why I didn't turn it on. A moot point now as she will have a much better phone in a weeks time.

Is it very very frightening?

Neither the IPhone of the Watch have wireless charging, the phone requires a magsafe connector and the iPhone will be thunderbolt.

Source? I'm not at all surprised about the phone, wireless charging hasn't really taken off even though it's pretty cool. But it seems it would make sense on a watch. Maybe it adds too much bulk.

I watched the event when they described it.

So did a whole load of idiots who are posting contradictory stories on the web Did they explicitly mention how the phone charges and/or show what the charger looks like?

edit: the picture I see shows wireless charging but in a way that's stretching the term. It's basically wired charging but you don't plug it in. Neat design - the magsafe socket was a brilliant idea - but it's not really fair to call it wireless.

If you have a macbook you will be familiar with the magsafe connector, which is just a wired charger that stays in place using magnets? It was like that only round.

But true wireless charging where you place it on a matt wouldn't help with a watch anyway. You still need to take it off to charge it. Wireless or not, it means you can't do any sleep analysis or anything during the night.

Mind you I prefer taking my watch off to sleep anyway.
