A few lucky people have had a chance to get their hands on the new iPhone 4S. The current reviews of the 4S have something in common -- everyone seems to love Siri, Apple's AI personal assistant.

Since the news that Steve Jobs passed away this past Wednesday, the reaction from the world has been nothing short of incredible.

There were post-it notes with "Thank You Steve" plastered all over the Apple Store.

Well, it's the announcement that everyone has been waiting for -- Apple's new iPhone. However, it's not the iPhone 5, as many people were expecting. Instead, Apple has released an upgraded version of the iPhone 4, which will be called the "iPhone 4S".

Tomorrow, Apple will host a media event that will most likely include the announcement of the iPhone 5. There are rumors that a "new" iPod, iCloud and iOS 5 will be announced at the event as well.

Over the next four years, Sprint has agreed to purchase 30.5 million iPhones from Apple -- for $20 billion dollars. Can Sprint really sell that many iPhones in four years?

Amazon's press event wasn't just about the Kindle Fire. Also unveiled were a new generation of Kindle e-readers, as well as the "Kindle Touch".

The Kindle Fire has been officially announced -- it will be released on November 15th, and will be priced at just $199. While most of the rumors about Amazon's tablet were true, some were proven to be completely ludicrous.
