of those 35% would put down money now - sight unseen - for it, as opposed to just saying that they "will" buy it.
Also, the article does not say where the survey took place - if it were on, and linked to by, a Mac user site, it's perhaps unsurprising that the result is what it is.
How many of those people are recently past their contract or near the end? That's definitely driving my decision. Personally, I "will" buy an iPhone 5 to replace my 3G. The 3G is over 3 years old tech at this point and showing its age. It's possible I'll get the iPhone 4 but I'll wait until the 5 is released to take advantage of any price drop. I think it's prudent more than anything else and not representative of widespread fanboism. If anything, it would be silly to buy a iPhone 4 now considering you'll be able to get a 5 at the same price a few months from now.
