So, i'm noticing that of all the pictures of the iPhone....there are no pictures showing the right-hand side. Even the high-res pics from apple's site show the phone from all kinds of angles, but not a single shot of the right side of the phone.

What are they hiding over there?

The right side has the hardware 1-9/#/* phone number keypad.

Really tiny buttons though :p

no, you have it all wrong!
the right side has a slot just big enough to hold your license and a credit card, so you don't need a wallet.

That's where the fan and exhaust are :D . I'd say they don't show it because there isn't anything to show over there, just some of the case.

so what you're saying is that it's also an iCache (http://www.icache.com)!! Awesome.

My guess is that side of the phone is a sim card slot?

the sim tray is, indeed, on top. i'm guessing there are no pictures of the right side, because there's nothing of interest to show. look at the macworld keynote. steve quickly shows all the sides, including the right.

a google search would lead you to iphonealley (http://www.iphonealley.com/news/iphone-has-sim-tray-after-all). or you could try apple's own website (http://www.apple.com/iphone/gallery/). the iphone gallery would lead you to this image:

Everyone knows the right side houses the bottle cap opener and nail file.

That was too long ago, perhaps things have changed (as with the glass surface).

Heh. I left it unedited, because I was wondering if someone would notice the mistake.

Good eyes!

PS. To the bottle-opener / nailfile respondent... of course!

Sounds like Apple should team up with the swiss army knife company... but then we REALLY wouldn't be able to take them on airplanes.

It's a bent twisted, rough edged, jagged un-machined gaping hole revealing the mboard and internal workings...The designers forgot to draw it and they're going to cover it with brown parcel tape in the stores...

Per Conan O'Brien:

The right side is where the can opener is located.
