The 4G iPhone may be available as early as June and include a 5 MP camera, as well as a touch-sensitive casing, according to Goldman Sachs analyst Robert Chen.
“Apple’s going to put a lot of innovation, not just on the hardware, but also on the software of the new iPhone,” said Chen. The handset will feature a new plastic casing similar to that used for Apple’s touch-panel Magic Mouse released last year, he said.
Upgrading to a 5-megapixels camera will bring the handset into line with that offered by Google Inc.’s Nexus One which was released last week, said Chen. The next iPhone will go into production as early as April and be available to consumers in June or July. The handset may include an updated version of the iPhone Operating System as part an overhaul of Apple’s applications store, he said.
The Magic Mouse features a touch-sensitive solid plastic shell that Chen believes will be replicated to offer touch-sensitive features on the rear of the next generation iPhone.
so... does that mean i can use the iphone as a magic mouse? i don't see the point of using the back of the phone for anything while i'm using the phone. not to mention what's the point of it when we put on a case which most users do. there are more important things to put in than a touch sensitive casing in my opinion.
Agreed, Fm radio is somthing they really need to add, they should try to add a 10mp camera :D thatd be sick! Also a camera in the front of the phone would also come handy for video talk and taking pics of yourself :P
