          There are better launchers out there than TouchWizz anyway, so even if you did update you could just use GoLauncher EX or Launcher7, et cetera. Whatever they do to TouchWizz won't affect me at all because I don't use it.

                  Careful guys, turns out Samsung hires people to fake comments and reviews. No wonder there are always 'people' online bashing HTC and Sony Ericsson as well. Turns out they could be Samsung employees:

                      Siri is AI, as opposed to voice control which is on other smartphones:

                        [deleted post]Siri as an app is nowhere near as integrated as it is now within the iPhone system. It has now 'progressed' from a voice app to a full fledged smartphone AI.

                            Having seen the Bada 2.0.1, I don't believe that Samsung will make this transition to bigger icons. The Touchwiz trend (both for Android and Bada) is definitely towards smaller icons. The photo displayed here, resembles my Bada 1.2 S8500...

                              why don't they just make it as an option to choose from 3, 4, or 5. this way they'll all parties would be satisfied. samsung, for me i'll go for 5, cause i need that space....

                                    This makes no sense at all. BadaOS 2.0 is going from 3 icons in a row to 4, but their flagship product is going backwards? Why? Besides, why can't they make it selectable by user? Some prefer more icons that are smaller and others larger icons and less of them on screen...

                                      4 icons would be a uiq3 copy, not ios.. sony ericsson used it in p990, p1 and m600..
