Let the rumour mill flow
clicky

Quote:
The next iPhone will appear as soon as April and will include a host of upgrades that include a dual-core processor, improved graphics, video chat, an OLED display, plus - and this one is hard to believe - a removable battery.


Quote:
The KT exec also told TKT that the new iPhone would have a dual-core processor and higher-resolution graphics. Whether that rumored processor upgrade would be based on the ARM Cortex-9 MPCore or ARM11 MPCore, a chip arising from Apple's own acquisition of PA Semi back in 2008, or something else entirely is of course both unknown and - without Cupertino spilling the beans - unknowable. Likewise the chip providing improved graphics, although Imagination Technologies' PowerVR SGX Series5XT GPU comes to mind.

Higher-resolution graphics seem a safe bet for the next generation of iPhones, seeing as how the current iPhone's display is a behind-the-curve HVGA 480-by-320 pixel, 3.5-inch TFT LCD, while that pesky upstart the Nexus One enjoys a lovely WVGA 800-by-480 pixel, 3.7-inch AMOLED.

Glad to hear the iPhone has finally caught up with my old Nokia 3310. :roll:

Let's hope that's true. My contract's run out so don't want to be paying for a handset I've already paid for.

Looks good to me :D

My contract is up in April/May and I'll be looking to change network (and poss go PAYG) with either the Nexus one, Sony Ericsson X10 or the next iPhone.

If the rumours are anywhere near true then it'll be worth looking at.

call 2302 from your iphone. Options 2, 2, 1, 4 then ask to move to the iphone simplicity. You can then upgrade at anytime after 30 days. All for £20 a month.

My contract is up at some point this month, definitely shifting across as soon as possible. That will more than halve my bill

I find it somewhat unlikely we'll get a new iPhone in April. Apple generally announce new iPods/IPhones in the summer don't they?

Plus, if they do announce the iClipBoard at the end of this month, it probably won't be shipping in volume until March or early April. Why steal the thunder of one of your new products by announcing another over it?

Shorter contract means cheaper iPhone

Means nothing to me, but someone might find it useful :? ;)

Give me an option to get one with a hardware keyboard or I'm not interested.

Everyone I see that uses one in uni seems to always have it out on show.... is it because:
1. They scratch easier than iPods and cases cost as much as a Bugatti Veyron?
2. They are pricks trying to show how cool they are?
3. They are waiting for someone to call them so they can show off how to answer a phone with no dedicated send/receive buttons?

Answers on a postcard ;)

Me... I'm waiting till the Nexus One reaches the UK..... so the cost of the Motorola Milestone comes down in price so I can get that :)

4. They're useful, good fun and they like using them (which kind of necessitates them being 'out on show')?

Re. cases - Clicky. Between £2 and £20 delivered. Much like any other phone case.
