They don't use the same connector, no, since you bought one before
the switch
and the other after the switch.

actually, he bought the 4s after the 5s came out, for 99 cents.


When did the 5s sell for 99 cents?

For that matter, I doubt if the 4S did, either.

You misread that.
After the 5S came out the 4S was available *Starting at $0.99*.
After last week's Keynote presentation which included new pricing, the
5S 16GB is available for $0 with a data plan. The 5S 32GB for $49.


I missed nothing. In an economic sense, a large portion of the cost of
the phones is paid for by higher usage charges. IIRC one of the
companies is actually reducing the monthly charges once the phone is
paid for.
