Just *what* will this brilliant device hold?
Personally, I think Apple will absolutely blow us away. We've asked for such simple features, that it seems every dumb-phone, your kitchen sink or your dog can perform at whim, but the iPhone lacks it. I imagine Apple will implement these with the new one, as it seems to be the only logical answer why they wouldn't. Such a simple to fix draw back is causing them a large loss in sales (though they still sell like crazy) they'll logically fix it soon.
Plus, with no 4G to bring to the new phone, they can't do any massive speed jump, really, so this is their only option.
Other than features that we deserve to have, I think we'll also see a slightly updated OS, in order to accommodate for the large onslaught of applications that we've found ourselves with. Whether it be how Android solves it, folders, or something else. I'd hope there will also be small OS tweaks to make it newer and funner.
Perhaps some new buttons either, and independent camera button on the side, and some quick-launch-application buttons (a la Blackberry?) as well as a camera megapixel update - almost inevitable - to I'd hope at least 3MP.
Maybe some other updates to the hardware, but I doubt much, bluetooth I think will only be the big thing, as Apple likes to keep it simple, but some additional low-profile buttons, and a different back wouldn't surprise me. (But boy would I be happy!)
This likely seems like *a lot* to take in, but Apple was missing massive features last year - 3G and GPS - that would have taken awhile to implement, so it was probably big enough to pass off as an update. But this time around, 4G certainly isn't big enough, nor is there really any other revolutionary features (small ones like copy paste, mms, etc.) so I think they'll do a massive amount of small tweaks, that will add up into some absolutely revolutionary - take two.
Other phones are starting to challenge the iPhone, the new upcoming one will knock them out before climbing into the ring.
