It’s here (almost). The newest gadget to make agricultural communications fun. It’s the iPhone 5, announced by Apple today. If you missed the announcement you can read back through live coverage on Engadget. You can begin pre-ordering online this Friday or buy in Apple stores on September 21.

Some of the things that stood out for me include:

It will be thinner, taller, same width.
Will have Ultrafast Wireless and LTE supported by AT&T, Verizon and Sprint.
Will have better battery life than 4S model.
Camera will be 8 megapixel with f/2.4 aperture. It already was best phone camera!
Three microphones. Sound great for farm podcasting!

So, if you’ve been waiting then the wait is over. Apple also announced new iPods, iTunes updating and EarPods which will replace the age old white ear buds.
