Should I get an iPhone 4S or an iPhone 5?

I'm finally getting an iPhone, so I've never owned one before and I can't decide which one to get. I can get a 16 GB iPhone 4S for $100 or a 16 GB iPhone 5 for $200. I don't get a new phone very often, as I've had my previous cell phone for 6 years. I don't know if it's worth paying the extra money for the newest model and latest features or if the 4S is the better value. Opinions would be much appreciated!

    The iPhone 5 has almost no software related advantage over the iPhone 4S. Every thing thats on iPhone 5 can be available for the iPhone 4S via the iOS 6 upgrade. But anyways a new model is always better. The iPhone 5 has a bigger (taller to be more precise) 4.0" display. Plus it has got a more than 2x processing and graphics rendering power than the 4S.

    Its always an economical smart (budget) move to get the 4S because its still one of the best phones out there. I own one and I love it to death.
