Techweb claims 64 gig iphone is coming

[Ballis]

Bull$4it I say. Id be hard pressed to believe the iPhone will get equally much memory as the iPad, but anyways, here is the story:

sounds about right so then come macworld time they will introduce a larger capacity ipad with a camera and other stuff people thought should be on the first one.

They do increase the memory from each initial iPhone launch, so who knows. (4/8 2G, 8/16 3G, 16/32 3GS, maybe 32/64 4G?)

YES!!!

make it happen jobs, i need it, please.

IF true, that would be sweet! I like taking plenty of music and movies when I travel and having multiple devices to pass through airport security is not much fun. Being able to consolidate would be great!

For 3G there was no increase, there WAS a 16GB 2G iPhone.

I only hope it's true because that way the 32gb will be the cheaper model. That's all I need.

Gene Munster is never right. He's just another stupid analyst.

I'll admit that this would be nice, but I suspect not, for a number of reasons:
1) The price of the 64GB chips (the iPod/iPad uses 2 chips, the iPhone doesn't have space)
2) They seem to be delineating between the primary features of devices. The iPods/iPad are there primarily to play media (iPad has a few extra things, but the media is one of the biggest things), the iPhone is designed as a phone, with a bit of storage, if you want to take music around with you. It's not the primary function.

Yes, that's my hope, too. It'd be great if I could get an early upgrade to a 32 GB iPhone 4 for $399. I could then probably cover the entire cost of my upgrade with the sale of my 32 GB 3GS.

Not at release, though.

Not at release, though.

I have a suspicion that they will release the HD in 16 and 32 GB models for $199/$299, and then offer a 64 GB model at a later date for $399.

What do you think makes him stupid?

 

[Cougarcat]

What do you think makes him stupid?

The fact that he makes ridiculous predictions.

 

[xraydoc]

I bet the iPhone stays at 16/32 for now so as not to make the 64GB iPad look "small" in terms of capacity. I do think they'll drop the 8GB model, though.

 

[sniffies]

My personal prediction: iPhone OS 5.0 is definitely coming with a lot of great new features!!
