    Jimmy Kimmel Finds Out People Can’t Tell Difference Between iPhone 4S and iPhone 5

    The anticipation from Apple lovers over the new iPhone 5 has been huge, and at midnight on Thursday, the phone became available for pre-order. People are so excited about the mega-popular device's new features, like the fast Internet speed and the phone's lighter weight.
    Knowing how huge this new release is, comedian and late night television host Jimmy Kimmel decided to conduct an experiment. If people were shown an iPhone 4S and told that Kimmel had gotten his hands on the new iPhone 5 early, and they could see it and touch it, would they believe him? His team took the iPhone 4S to the streets to see what happened.
    One guy took the phone in his hands, held it for a few seconds, and said, "Oh, it's way better. It's definitely noticeably better." Another participant said, "it's a little thinner. It looks like the screen's a little bigger." In fact, the consensus was that the new phone was very updated and a lot better.
    The video already has more than 3 million views on YouTube. The real iPhone 5 will officially start shipping September 21.

    • WHEN DID WE VOTE TO BECOME MEXICO?

      At first I thought the IRS scandal was leaked to distract from the Benghazi scandal. But that didn't make sense because the IRS scandal is a more obvious abuse of power than the White House lying about the murder of four Americans in Libya.Before I had resolved which scandal was distracting from which, we found out the Department of Justice was spying on The Associated Press -- not to protect national security, but to prevent the AP from scooping the White House. Then, this week, it broke that the Department of Justice was also spying on Fox News for reasons that remain unexplained. ...
