are you being facetious? that's not the new iphone. it's a knock off, the wrong apple logo is a dead give-a-way. fasicous

Guess this is a good example of people who have no sense of humour at all..
 
M'kay

i would hate an iphone nano. whats the point? someone, please please, enlighten me!

Sure it's a simple candy bar phone with buttons and itunes (music only) integration, no camera, no wifi , no gps , but with bluetooth. However it is an object of exquisite design & beauty exactly what the original motorola rokr was not. The rokr failed but apple experimented and watched the model.
 
Explained a bit here:

The differences between the iPhone and the iPhone 3G were obviously not deemed to be large enough to separate them.
That would mean a significant update for the 2,1. Also maybe the 2,1 is coming sooner than June? Maybe the upcoming Super Bowl Apple ad is for this iPhone?

(probably stepping a little too far out with that prediction)

And I also wonder why the numbers go from 1,1 to 1,2 to 2,1 instead of from 1,1 to 1,2 to 2,2.
 
Name: iPhone 3g Pro
Mem: 16GB, 32GB
WiFi: 802.11 b,g,n
Cameras: Front and Back, both supporting video capture mode, 4MB pixel
Screen: 3.5 inch LED, 540 by 360 resolution (special graphic drivers will ensure backward compatability with 480 by 320)

Yes...I know...these are easy predictions...what's on your wish list?

why would they add the name "pro" to it? it is not going to be a device marketed to the pro end user.
 
I'm so happy there's possibly (or definitely ;) ) a new iPhone! I still have the 1G iPhone, and while I absolutely love it, I wouldn't mind some new features/hardware updates. I will most definitely be upgrading to whatever comes out in June!
 
It DOES look very suspicious. The only people that really need to delete individual calls are people who are cheating on their gfs/bfs/spouses. I would figure that the security pin# lock should be sufficient enough to hide any personal information, in the same way that user log-ins do for Mac OS X. It's probably part of Job's agenda to keep the iPhone pure and untainted, like not having porn apps. I could see him spinning it as "not needing to delete history" being that there's up to 16GB worth of space on the phones, perhaps up to 32GB when the new one comes out. I'd actually like to be able to keep longer phone call histories in my opinion, like Safari does for internet histories in Mac OS X.

I'd like to see you complain to your significant other about how you can't delete individual calls (assuming you have one).

seriously, grow up. deleting individual numbers does NOT indicate cheating. i'm single and DATE a ton of women...all of whom would love to get access to my phone (aka. little black book) and see what competition they are up against.....and then either delete another woman's number or see who I've been chatting with.

it's no ones business who i call or talk to. so i (and others) would benefit with the ability to delete select numbers/calls/texts/etc.

now that i think about it.....maybe YOU'RE the one cheating because that's the first thing you thought about when the other guy made the request to delete individual calls.
 
I think we'll see iPhone 2,1 before June.

Keep in mind Apple missed their iPhone sales target last quarter - they will want to keep up momentum as quickly as possible. Rather than just bump current hardware to 32GB, I think they'll release revised hardware with better power efficiency and a cosmetic change here or there. But they need to do it before June.
 
People keep assuming the "iPhone Nano" (doubt it will be called that) will be a scaled down version of the iPhone but that doesn't have to be the case. Just like the current iPod Nanos, it will be just as powerful or more powerful than the current iPhones. I'm betting this "2,1" phone is the next big step hardware-wise which means all of us iPhone owners already have "iPhone Nanos."

Very interesting perspective, but "ouch" on the last line. Bet no one saw that coming! But it is true.
 
Why is this news? Apple is testing a new phone. I can tell you this, it's going to come out in June 2009. lol...

it's news for a mac rumor site!

If you don't think it's news, perhaps you should follow a different site that contains more 'news'

The issue here is not your preferences (nor mine) and not p0rn (nor cheating). It's all about control: the user must be able to delete any data if they so wish -- the device must not prohibit it.

Or, put another way: "Who's the boss?". ;)

OS X has been described as a 'butler', always there when needed but not needlessly interrupting the user (cf. Windows notifications, confirmations etc.). With some minor improvements, iPhone will be more butler-like :)

I didn't quite see it coming either (but I did speculate on two different iPhone models, the lower-end one basically what the iPhone is now). I think this is most likely what will end up happening.
 
what do you guys think the possibility is of introducing a 32gb iphone? It's possible with the touch, why hasn't it been brought down to the iphone? That's really the only thing that's held me back from getting an iphone, I want to be able to carry all my music...

The iPod touch uses two flash chips, the iPhone can only use one due to space restrictions. So the iPhone will always be one step down in capacity relative to the iPod touch.

There is a single 32GB flash chip available now though - that's what sparked the discussion of a 32GB iPhone and a 64GB iPod touch.
 
I do hope that this is a bigger upgrade than the classic to the 3G. I'd love to have a reason to upgrade from my classic, and 3G and GPS (and plastic) weren't enough for me.

While competitors try to recreate a "me too" device by copying the iPhone in its current iteration, Apple is (hopefully) working on packing their next generation models with proprietary power efficient Multi-Core CPUs and GPUs. While Tim Cook stated that Apple's advantage is that they look at the iPhone as a software platform before a hardware platform, this statement may be another one of Apple's clever deterrents while they blindside the copy cat competition.

Yah same with me, i didnt upgrade because the update didn't merit it. BUT the good news this is 2,0, not 1,3 which means it's a totally new model, not just a minor update.

I'm soooooo excited!! I can't wait until June. I think this will be the first time I'll actually be online at 5am like a total Apple geek :)

Plastic? what do you think your first gen phone is made of?
 
Size, what's in a number?

Hell, my first hard drive was a whoppin' 47 MBs (paid almost $700 for it as well). Okay, I admit it... I'm old.
 
The more I read about this the more I get excited. It will nice to replace my iPhone Classic. Really nice 'cause I feel like I am the only one using a 4GB iPhone left these days. Even my non-tech-savy wife has a iPhone 3G now.

Common apple give me something to replace my phone with.
