I want an iPhone so badly but making myself wait until the new one is released!

I know it's annoying. I'm with T-Mobile right now and a few months ago bought the G1 just cause every other phone T-Mobile has sucks, when this new iPhone comes out I'll be jumping over to AT&T (I'm on a shared plan, so I'm not really breaking a contract just dropping a line).

i doubt jobs will be involved at all...

after hearing some more uhh... "information" I've changed my mind. He may not be back for the WWDC, but I'm now pretty sure he'll be back this monthish.

As far as I know, or at least how ATT/Sprint does it, each line on a plan has a contract. If you get a family plan with 4 lines, you sign 4 contracts. Each contract has it's own ~$175 cancelation fee. Again, that's how ATT/Sprint does it, but don't be surprised...

Yup. :yes:

How gorgeous does this look? Me want. :D

<snip>

For a mock up, that looks stunning. Honestly, if the new iPhone is like that?! Thinner & a slight design change, then I think it will make me get it over the N97.

I just want this new iPhone to be different to the 3G, I dont want a re-hash. The 3G wasnt overly different to the 2G and this is why I just kept my 2G. Come on Apple, I love you guys but I need something different looking to make me get this new one!!!

^ That is quite simply, stunning!

Is it just me or does that appear to have a bigger screen? I have no doubt that Apple wouldn't have designed anything remotely that gorgeous, plus they may be a little concerned with the "Zune HD" style home button.

That does look outstanding though.

*looks at iPhone 3G .... looks back at mockup .... hmmmm (<- Homer Simpson Style).*

I love that mockup. I would have made the top speaker (I dont know the name of that part in english) more like the current iPhone.

Could it be possible that it may actually be the real thing? I've seen a couple image of the 'mock-up' and they all seem to have that kind of rubbery smooth back to it. If its looks half as good as the mock-up I'd get it. Though, I am hoping for something totally different from Apple, with the iPhone video link thing and the image of the mock-up it seems unlikely.

"[distance] ahead" still works.

Yeah, when I read about "Light-years" I asked myself the question, but when we think about it, there's an expression in English that says "this company is miles ahead of his competitor", so the distance works perfectly.

That iPhone mockup... I saw it on HardMac (Macbidouille in fact) and god that it looks awesome! The matte plastic would be perfect, and we don't need that glowing logo in the back, as it would seem like a screaming "STEAL ME" logo more than anything... I know it wouldn't consume any energy at all because it's lit by the screen, but it'd make iPhone users look like attention ######.

So when is the keynote? Monday or Tuesday? Edit: Monday. Should have read the first post. And it kicks in at 1PM EST if it follows the tradition?

That mock up is tasty but it wont happen. They wont make the screen that large without upping the resolution and that would cause an issue for all the app creators out there when there sweet looking apps end up with a nasty black border.

Still would be nice to see a proper 16:9 ratio screen

Is this the new iPhone?

Sure, it's Palm's big day, but that doesn't mean the Apple rumor mill is taking a break -- check out this pic of what might be the new iPhone set to drop on Monday. Yep, that's a matte black casing with no chrome border, a what looks to be a front-facing camera, and iPhone OS 3.0, so it certainly lines up with what we've heard -- but it wouldn't exactly take a Photoshop master to do this one up either. One more pic at the read link -- anyone believing this?

Update: Nowhere Else seems to be down at the moment, so we've stuck the other pic after the break.

    • Anyone Here With Turbo Pascal Experience?

      Wow, throwback.  VERY VERY briefly - but realised that it wasn't the language I needed for the tasks I was taking on.
    • Apple and Tesla trade secrets reportedly exposed following a Tata Electronics cyberattack

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      Apple and Tesla trade secrets reportedly exposed following a Tata Electronics cyberattack by Hamid Ganji Image via Depositphotos.com Tata Electronics has confirmed that it detected a cybersecurity incident in some of its systems. The Indian company is a manufacturing partner of both Apple and Tesla, and the incident may have exposed some trade secrets belonging to the two American companies. The World Leaks ransomware group is said to be behind the attack, and it has reportedly posted up to 200,000 files on the dark web, including component designs and specification documents related to Apple and Tesla products. Tata Electronics told Reuters that its response protocols were deployed immediately and that the “incident has had no impact on our operations across businesses, which remain unaffected.” The ransomware group reportedly sent a ransom demand to Tata Electronics, while Apple has launched an investigation into the incident. World Leaks claims it stole more than 200,000 files totaling over 630GB from Tata Electronics. Some database files on the ransomware group’s website are titled "com.apple.factorydata," which could refer to Apple’s iPhone production operations in India. Moreover, some documents reportedly contain material specifications and quality inspection standards for iPhone circuit board components. However, Apple is not the only affected company. A folder found in the World Leaks database is titled "NV36 Chargeport Controller - North America," which may refer to Tesla Model Y components. Additionally, other files in the database reportedly contain drawings related to Tesla’s Project Highland, the internal codename for the EV maker’s updated Model 3 sedan. To support the authenticity of the stolen files, World Leaks has published documents containing footers that read: "This document contains proprietary and confidential information of Apple Inc." and "information contained herein is deemed confidential, proprietary, and a trade secret of Tesla Inc." Cybersecurity researcher Rajshekhar Rajaharia told Reuters that the database also contains emails, event logs spanning several years, and passport copies of employees, including foreign nationals. Both Tesla and Apple have declined to comment on the scale of the incident.

      Last time I used Pascal was in college about 40 yrs ago, programmed an inventory database for my exam.
    • Valve finally confirms Steam Machine prices, starts at $1049 for 512GB option

      If they don't sell enough of the 1st gen then there won't be a 2nd gen

      Epic fail, should've added an eSata port on the back, also if the memory/NVME are soldered then they're hardly gonna sell any, first thing most people do with their Steamdeck is, or used to be, replacing the NVME with a 2TB one. At that price they should, possibly for the first time, offer an installments option, say 24 months, they may sell a lot if they do. I'm sure they would have no shortage of credit companies willing to partner.
