I think that these guys made a mistake when desiging their case. I DO believe that Apple gave case manufacturers design hints in the form of the first attached image that made the rounds on the internets a few weeks back. But if you look at the first box (upper left, showing the new slope of the back) you'll notice that the two phones have the exact same thickness in their sillouette. I think that is very unlikely to happen, and I also doubt that the phone will get any thicker. Someone posted the second image in another thread, and if you line it up with the outline of the first image you will see it is almost a perfect fit (slightly too thin, but very close). I think this is much more likely to be what we get! What do you think?
Yea definately, that is what looks like the design route Apple would go down with the next iPhone.
A few people have mentioned the new iPod Nano happenings when it got slated when the actual design was released. Names like iPod fatty, iPod Bilbo, iPod Chubby etc etc. Yes it was a move away from the original shape, but it was still razor thin.
From the fact that the new nano was still super thin, I would guess that new iPhone is definitely not going to be thicker. Changing the shape is a totally different thing to changing the thickness.
