Guys, I have a member of the family who works at Apple and he just sent me screenshots of a prototype of the upcoming iPhone. As you can see, it will be available in red to suit their product red promotion. It looks pretty decent actually!!!

I've noticed a few things :

- There are now 2 buttons at the bottom

- The camera is facing you

- The Apple logo WILL glow

- The back contains a small transparent plastic piece which enables you to see the interior of the iPhone. Pretty badass!

- Strangely though, it wasn't designed in Califnornia... Is Apple expanding in other States ? Is Apple moving away from California because they had too much trouble in the past with schwarzenegger?

- There are now 2 speakers at the top for you to hear the conversation better

Let the speculation begin...!

That looks nothing like an iPhone. The iPhone pic I got is legit:

If these get announced tomorrow anyone have an idea of when they'd go on sale? (going from previous apple unveilings?)

I'm over in the states just now until the 25th of June.

Was looking at buying an iPod Touch, then decided to consider an iPhone, buy it unlocked. I'm on a monthly rolling contract back Home with unlimited web usage, so I'd be able to use my sim with an unlocked iPhone.

I'd really like to get 32GB of space you see, as I'd be using it for music as well and 16GB isn't that much for me.

I'm also considering it as just before I came on holiday my current phone was put through the washing machine :laugh: In a rush to get things washed for packing I accidently washed it. Not tried turning it on yet, I put it in the boiler cupboard and it's there till I come home.

I have a feeling it won't work though.

edit: Also, how long did it take for the iPhone when first released to be unlocked? Even if the new iPhone's released tomorrow go on sale say next week I probably wouldn't buy one unless it could get unlocked pretty shortly after... if that's a problem I might just see if the 16GB 3G's come down in price over the next week or so.

I'm guessing it'll come out on the 29th of this month.

The anticipation is killing me!

I dunno how Apple do it, making sure that there are no leaks. I mean there is not one solid leaked photo out there that might resemble what the new iPhone will look like. A very tight unit.

Nevertheless, I have been wanting an iPhone for a while but the current 3G hasn't quite fit the bill (mainly software). Hopefully it'll live upto my expectations.

Anyone know what time the keynote will begin UK time (GMT)?

Will there be a live stream tomorrow?
No, just liveblogs like Gizmodo or Engadget

I'm not so sure. For the last few keynotes, the video versions were online within a few hours. So maybe sometime around 19:00 - 20:00 EDT (if not sooner), the feed could be up.

Still, can't wait to give 3.0 a shot. ;)

    • Valve finally confirms Steam Machine prices, starts at $1049 for 512GB option

      By matthiew · Posted

      Huh? You're delusional calling the Steam Deck dead. It is so successful that it has sold out multiple times. Even after the price hike this year it sold out again with 24 hours of being back in stock. The demand is real and has not died down even after four years.

      Same place "Unreal III" is, in everyone's thoughts!

      So how much water is used in that "initial charge" and how often will it need to be recharged?
