New iPhone this Summer or No? Your Guesses.

I think we'll see a new one this summer. Not sure what new features, at the very least I think we'll see a 32GB iPhone.

Yes, there are few gripes I have with the current iPhone 3G. Colors would be nice, and turnbyturn GPS would be even nicer. Copy/Paste and VoiceDial without App Store apps would be great also.

Phil confirmed what we already knew: iPhone once a year, every year in June.

yeah it's bound to get updated once a year, like Tallest Skil said Phil kind of confirmed it.

A long shot but I hope the new iphone can run on t-mobile's 3G band.

If I'm not mistaken AT&T and T-Mobile are on two different 3G bands. =/

Who knows what will happen next? =)

I expect an update in June, but not the huge leap in capabilities that some predict. In other words, no iPhone HD. Instead, I expect 32 GB or maybe even 64 GB models, bump in battery life, faster processor, something like that. I also expect Firmware 3.0 with some nice new features.

Apple probably has a iPhone HD prototype, but given the state of the economy, which most certainly won't be "all better" by this summer, I can't see them putting out a premium-price phone. Terrible timing. They will shelve it for another year. The existing iPhone already has a great screen.

I also don't see any "special deals" for existing iPhone customers that are still in contract. Why would they do that? I think many here forget sometimes that AT&T and Apple are in this business to make money. Remember the huge hit AT&T told their shareholders they'd take on iPhone 3G subsidies? Yeah, they want that money back through data costs. They are not just going to reset the subsidy all over again.

I would be completely satisfied with an upgrade with your list of features, maybe throw some more RAM in there to boot....I like RAM.

Imagine what all the iphone will have by the time LTE networks are up and running on a mass scale. I can only dream.

Same thing as in year's past: announcement at WWDC, on sale late June/early July.

As for features, one of the things I'm really holding out for is a better camera. I'd love to make the iPhone my sole camera. With a flash and a few more megapixels, I'd be happy.

The new iPhoto release with Places seems to support my wants!

This article claims we could see the new phone earlier do to sales being down...
