Friends Kingdom: Re: [iPad] Apple iPhone Announcement Wallpaper

Since I'm beta testing iOS 8 and the public version of Yosemite, I tried out the feature of letting my MBA pick up the call. Not good. There was a delay before the call came to my

MBA and the call cut in and out. I hope it gets fixed before release.

Yes, I'm very interested in that feature.

"iPad and Mac, now answering the call.
Sometimes when your iPhone rings, it's not where you are. Maybe it's charging in another room. Or it's buried in your backpack. But your Mac or iPad is sitting right there. Now you can make and receive phone calls on those devices as long as your iPhone running iOS 8 is on the same Wi-Fi network. Incoming calls show the caller's name, number, and profile picture. Just click or swipe the notification to answer, ignore, or respond with a quick message. And making a phone call from your iPad or Mac is just as easy. Simply tap or click a phone number in Contacts, Calendar, or Safari. It all works with your existing iPhone number, so there's nothing to set up."

I agree. With the iOS 8 and ability to get and make phone calls in my iPad Mini and iMac, it will soon be I wouldn't need an actual 'PHONE' And my screen is large on the mini.

So, whose keen on an iPhone 6?

After many screen size rants over the years, I will wait. Concerned over issues, albeit rumoured. Concerned over the form factor IF Apple keeps the same size home button and the need to keep top and bottom bezel the same size.

I wil consider maybe after a few weeks.

MUCH more interested in iOS8 and Yosemite!
