I disagree that the iPhone 4S is a let down. The camera alone will be a huge step in the right direction for OCR. I also like that the new iPhones will handle both GSM and CDMA. No having to worry about whether your phone is compatible with what carrier. Just unlock it and you're good to go. Speak to text is also a nifty feature. I probably won't use Seri, but I'm relatively pleased.
