We didn't exactly get the Apple iPhone 5 - but we did get the iPhone 4S. Even famous comedian Dane Cook who took to Twitter to share his disappointment.
After months of anticipation and build-up to the rumored announcement that the Apple iPhone 5 would be released yesterday, fans and investors were let down when the tech giant instead announced the iPhone 4S.
It has some cool new features and a great price, but many were disappointed that it was pretty much a slightly improved version of the iPhone 4. In fact, Apple shares went down 4.5% when the iPhone 5 failed to surface!
"If you are a tech site who, for the last 6 months, has posted next gen iPhone "rumor roundups" please go swallow a knife," comedian Dane Cook tweeted yesterday.
Many of his followers agree. "[Definitely] swallowing a knife is minimum. But think of the people who already started waiting in line for this #bigfail," wrote one.
"Or eat a poisoned Apple. #irony," wrote another.
Some, however, defended Apple in the new iPhone 4S.
