I would hope not any larger than 4". But it will have to be significantly larger than the current display.
4" is right up Apples alley. 4.3" is perfect for my hands, but not really the "middle" point. 4" is something that Apple can use to keep the display still technically a "retina display" while keeping a very similar form factor (height, width, weight) and also giving us all the screen spec bump we've been waiting for.
Of course, this is all speculation. Maybe it's me getting my hopes up. Worst case scenario, if Apple doesn't pull through Samsung will be getting my business.

I'm really thinking 3.7 or 3.8. Why? No logical reason really....its just that I could just see Jobs telling us why 3.8 is SOOO much better than 3.5 AND 4.
I had a Samsung Infuse for a month and the system got a bit buggy but I LOVED the 4.5" screen. Felt like the perfect size but even a hair larger and I would not have been able to hold it comfortably which means a lot of people probably can't use it well.
4" iPhone sounds like a reasonable size increase. A good bump but nothing that a plethora of phones are not already doing and have shown works for a lot of people.
