There's a 16GB iPad. The market for 16GB is still there. People aren't going to get more GB just for the hell of it.
8GB is just insufficient for today's needs. An argument could be made that it was insufficient in 2008 but the cost of memory made that tier a necessity for maximizing sales. The only reason it was phased out in the S is because of reduced costs.
I agree, it doesn't make sense to use a fully-functional unit to do a burn-in test on the LCD screen this late in the development period. It's probably just a diagnostic screen of some sort.
Fully-featured BT-stack! And I mean "fully".
Custom message-ringtones! Not that big of a deal, but would be neat.
Lockscreen being able to show info, appointments etc.! That's just a must. Really.
Pretty please, Mr. Apple, Sir!
Boring...
..I'm bloody tired of reading peoples opinions, some of which are utterly stupid. Roll on June...I want to see the final product in action.

Sooooo ... Will this guy get the legal Apple letter to return their phone? Will the Apple Gustopo raid his house?
We have already been through this with the first leak. Saying it is not Apple like means you know nothing about Apple design history.
You'd most likely loose. The iPhones only use one NAND chip. With the larger battery and even less space in the new phone....that won't change.
And currently there are no reports of a 64GB NAND chip.
You have it backwards, the 4g now looks like it belongs to the apple family. Look at the mac's, apple runs the glass to the edge's on the iMac and MBP's surrounded by aluminum. Now they've done the same thing to the iPhone.
It's not Apple-like because it doesn't look like the last iPhone, but more like the rest of their products?
I'm a vietnamese, so I'll take this honor please.
What he's saying: The phone may look small on video, but it's big in real life. It feels very sturdy and solid in your hand. Glass on both front and back. Back camera has flash. This new iPhone is somewhat longer than the old one. He doesn't see any way of opening it beside prying it out. The screen is locked. From his guess, he says the phone can only be keep enabling by entering a code after time intervals. The width is narrower then the old phone about a couple mm and longer a couple mm. On the right is the microsim slot. Very solid and heavier than the old phone. It's a more manly phone and look more modern than the old phone. Thank you. That's it.
Thanks.
Because the iPod lacks the whole GSM/3G-modem-part, you know, more available space for storage.
Sad but true
After simulated the text in different screen resolution and compare to the images. It's sad to acknowledge that a quad-sized screen resolution (640x960) is not possible to be happened on it.
It's more sad that unchanged resolution (320x480) is also possible as the font clearness is kinda similar to the screen in the video.
Even if the screen shown in the video has a higher resolution, it seems more likely that it's only about 1.5x (480x720) for a reasonable pixel scale up without affecting current applications.

Sigh!
Apple news is all iPhone/iPad 24/7.
Clearly its the same phone from the Giz leak, and lots of other leaks now.
Clearly they are going to use the iPad CPU because they own it and its much faster if you have used a iPad than the 3GS. They have to since the latest Android phones, you know the ones that out sold the iPone last month, all have a 1ghz snap dragon.
Clearly the resolution must increase, again compared to all of the new Android phones.
Clearly it will have a better Camera, and probably a front facing one, again to compete with the better hardware.
Etc...etc....etc.
Not much Mac news these days, like you know 10.7 or the next iWork, iLife or MobileMe improvements???
Apple is becoming a mobile gadget company. Their financial results show they made more money off the iPod/iPhone/iTunes echo system than computer sales did. The gap will only increase with the iPad being reported next quarter.
Hey Apple.......Windows 7, Office 2010, FREE Live Essentials wave 4 with Active Sync hotmail that has no storage limit, Photo gallery that has all of the same features of as iPhoto 09, including geo-tagging and the speedy 25gig SkyDrive (compared to iDisk) are worth answering.....if you care about the Mac any more.

You guys are missing the point! It's not just a smaller iPad. It has a phone built in! AND a camera!
And the biggest difference....
This one does FLASH...
dude... you complain about iphone-only news... then demand... iLife news? SERIOUSLY?
iwork, ilife, and mobileme can all take a jump in the lake for all i care, compared to the new iphone.
"ooh! ooh! the new PAGES app was LEAKED! how EXCITING! look at the TABS!"
yeesh.
and speaking of... it is weird that the new one looks all fat. and then they put it next to the old one and... it isn't. at all.
so i guess that curved back really did manage to hide the thickness of the 3g.
an iphone that works like an ipad. sign me the hell up.

Without getting either a detailed macro photo of the screen or a direct screen capture, there's really no way to tell. Sorry. Comparing it to a grainy 480p image off YouTube just isn't an accurate way to go about things.
