People who are on the S track of iPhone iterations will be happy with the improvements, and people who just got the iPhone 5, like us, will just be happy to wait for the iPhone 6. EMILY: And maybe grumbling a liiiitttttttttle bit. EMILY: Next up, Android ns like our fiancees have their panties in a twist over the rumor that the Samsung Galaxy S4 is coming next year.

What else can you get for $25K? Karyne: A car. Emily: A wedding. Karyne: A home movie theater. Emily: A downpayment on a house. Karyne: 25 MacBook Airs. Emily: 25 thousand hamburgers from the McDonalds dollar menu. Karyne: Yuck. OK fine, yum. EMILY: Now, we saw the first 4K TVs at CES last year, and everyone went googoo gaga over their lifelike picture quality that was like looking through a window. Personally, my vision is so imperfect that I was incredibly underwhelmed. KARYNE: Or maybe you werent standing at the right distance from it. As CNETs Geoff Morrison writes: Your eye has a finite resolution, and at the distance that most people sit from their TVs, its unlikely youd be able to tell the difference. EMILY: That?s it for this week. Our comment of the week comes from Garfnodie, who writes of the rumor that iOS will be getting a Microsoft Office app: ?My biggest problem with Office on mobile devices is the subscription model. I do not like paying a monthly fee to use an app...Give me free or premium, not freemium or subscription.? KARYNE: Hear hear. That?s our show everyone, share your rumors at or call us at 1-800-750-CNET. And tweet us! EMILY: Happy holidays, and have a happy new year!
