I had a stab yesterday at predicting what we'd see announced at the Let's Talk iPhone keynote. Turns out that I got two of my predictions right, and two only half right.

iPod touches

My prediction regarding iPod touches was:

New iPod touches with specs to match the iPhone 5 (except the camera)

which was spot-on. OK, I admit it was kind of a given, but I still count that as a point to me. wrong. The only new thing about the iPod touches is the fact that there's now a white one. The internals are all still the same, to the extent that Apple hasn't called them the fifth-generation iPod touch, it's still fourth-gen.

iOS 5

I had two predictions regarding iOS 5. One was about the GM:

The GM (Gold Master) of iOS 5, because Apple wouldn't release a .0 version of iOS without having released one first…

another point to me. The GM was released about an hour after the keynote ended. However, I had another point to make about iOS 5:

…and with no 'Assistant' feature.

Whoops. We did indeed see an assistant feature, called Siri.

One more thing

I do get another point for my 'One more thing…' prediction.

No "one more thing…" because that was Steve Jobs' bit, and Tim Cook will want to leave it that way.

There was no "one more thing", and I still believe it's because they want to keep that as Steve Jobs' trademark thing.

New iPhones

I'm going to award myself half a point for my new iPhone prediction, which was

The iPhone 5, which will look the same as the iPhone 4, but will have been upgraded internally.

because while the new phone does look the same as the iPhone 4, and has indeed been upgraded internally, it's called the iPhone 4S (ugh), not the iPhone 5.

Final score

So, my final score is 3 out of 5, which isn't too bad. Next year, though, I'll try to be more specific with my predictions so that they aren't so obvious (anyone could have predicted that stuff).
