TUAW TV Live: Reviewing the iPhone 4S

The iPhone 4S has been out for a dozen days, and it's already proving to be Apple's most popular phone ever. The 8 MP camera takes spectacular photos and video, the speed of the device in both native operations and running web apps is amazing, and Siri has raised the bar for what a smartphone needs to be.

On today's TUAW TV Live, I'm going to walk through a lot of the features of this new device, do side-by-side comparisons with an iPhone 4 running iOS 5, talk about Siri in daily use, and -- as always -- take questions from TUAW TV viewers in the chat room. Is the iPhone 4S enough of an improvement over the iPhone 4 to make for a no-brainer upgrade decision? You'll find out in just a few minutes.

Below, you'll find a Ustream livestream viewer and a chat tool. The chat tool allows you to participate by asking questions or making comments. Remember that you can also join the chat room via IRC, using server chat1.ustream.tv and room #tuaw-tv.

If you're driving somewhere and would like to watch TUAW TV Live while you're stuck in traffic, please don't -- keep your eyes on the road! However, if someone else is doing the driving, you can watch the show on your iPhone and join the chat by downloading the free Ustream App. It's a universal app and is wonderful on an iPad, both for viewing and participating in the chat.

We'll start at about 5 PM ET, so if you're seeing a prerecorded show, be sure to refresh your browser until you see the live stream. Those who can't join us for the live edition will be able to view it later this evening on our TUAW Video YouTube channel and as part of the TUAW TV Live podcast viewable in iTunes or on any of your Apple devices.
