Today’s Apple Announcement

Well, today’s Apple announcement wasn’t as exciting as I wanted it to be. It wasn’t because the iPhone 5 wasn’t phenomenal, it wasn’t because it wasn’t faster, thinner, better display, or any other reason. It was because the great Apple Secrecy has been shattered.

Favorite App This Week
