Found laying in a bar.... Whoops!
This Is Apple's Next iPhone - Iphone 4 - Gizmodo

And hear I thought I could go a whole year with my 3gs.... Damn you apple..... DAMN YOU!

Funny how much the styling looks like the HP Slate tablet.

[porsche4life]

Except its not made by HP.... So it won't be junk.... I've not been impressed with anything modern HP....

[Geronimo '74]

Damn, I'll have to get that one now.....
Release date known yet?

[porsche4life]

Doubtful.... I'd say midsummer as usual... Hopefully Radioshack will be set up to sell them by then so I won't have to wait in a humongous line....

I can just have the radioshack manager at work hold one back for me...

h'okay...

So, will this phone be for Verizon, or sprint . . .or anyone other than AT&T?

Will it have a WVGA screen like all of the better smartphones out now?

[porsche4life]

I have no clue.... The AT&T contract has to be up soon... But IDK... I'm already on AT&T so no worries.....

I heard that Apple wants to (is) making a phone for the other carriers => this may not be slated for AT&T.

[porsche4life]

I think they will go to all carriers once the AT&T contract is up.... I don't see them tying themselves to one carrier again.... Just doesn't make sense...

[Geronimo '74]

If they do go to all carriers, ask your boss to set one aside for me too and send it as a gift...

[island911]

AT&T's iPhone contract expires in 2010, so will Apple switch carriers? | DVICE

[porsche4life]

I'll send one across the pond... I'll just need the purchase price in USD.... I'll cover shipping....

[Geronimo '74]

You're too kind but I'll have none of that, you'll be paid in full, including shipping.


(Let's see when it come out first...)

[porsche4life]

You think it'll come out here first?

I wish Gizmondo had listed the components inside. Including whether it uses the A4 or other Apple/PA Semi chip that the iPad uses, or the Samsung chip that the iPhone uses, or something else.

Anyway, looks good and I think I'll be ready for a new phone - daughter will be delighted w/ her hand me down 3G . . .

If they did, they would likely be looking at a lawsuit

[island911]

hmmm... I'm a bit wondering how many super-secret iPhones Apple had to lose (wink wink) before the intrigue stories hit the fan . . .boys. --not to imply that Apple would do anything to compel others to give them free press.

The main logic board is one very weird piece of this puzzle. Unlike the iPhone 3GS teardown, which revealed a large logic board along with another part down by the dock connector, this design only has something maybe 1/3 of the size, along with one or two extraneous parts. Basically, the guts have shrunk drastically...

Unfortunately for us, Apple intends to keep this a secret. There are no markings on the board, but even so, the board was encased in metal all around so nothing could get through and would be very difficult to remove without breaking the device. Anyone trying to take this part off the phone would damage the device irreparably. On top of this metal, there was a thermal paste-like material. And on top of that, black tape. They really didn't want people looking inside.

I wanted to make sure I didn't damage the components beyond repair, so I didn't take the metal off. So this is as much as I could learn without actually breaking the phone. And this is why I couldn't find out if there was an A4 processor—like the iPad's—in this iPhone. I also couldn't really identify many parts, because they were hidden under the metal sheath.
