iPhone 5: Expect Stronger Demand Than Ever [REPORT] (Mashable). Mashable - Turns out the tech press isn't alone in lusting after the phone Apple is expected to unveil within the next month. More people are likely to buy the iPhone 5 than were ready to put their money down for an iPhone 4 before that launched, according to a survey of 2,200 potential cellphone buyers. The survey, conducted last month for ChangeWave Research, shows that 31% of customers who are currently shopping for a new phone consider it "very likely" (13%) or "somewhat likely" (18%) they will end up with an iPhone 5 in their hands. Compare that with the numbers for the iPhone 4 -- 12% and 13% respectively -- and what you have is a level of pent-up demand that is unprecedented in surveys like this. [Yahoo! News: Technology News]
