This is an actual picture of the handset. A buddy of mine that works for Apple confirmed this. What is up in the air are the exact features the phone will have. This is what he knows for sure. OLED screen , Live video chat, 4G network capable, about 30% thinner case, it will be out summer 2010. Enjoy! here is the link to a picture of the handset my friend said is authentic.
Yeah this is not real. It comes from a website that does concept art. If you were go to the website you would see this is labeled as "Concept" and that it was not done for apple. Also some of these things were also rumored to be on the iphone 3GS and they never happened.
Also here is a link the article where you got this photo. LINK
And it says this right in the article "Meanwhile, a French-language site Nowhereelse.fr has published (original in French, Google translation) an interesting mockup visualizing 4G iPhone rumors. Based on a cool rendition by an agency called Designed By Item that depicts a unibody-created 4G iPhone, the mockup lists key rumored featured with an estimated probability of ending up in the actual product"
And finally if you look at the picture of the back you can tell they took a picture of a macbook pro and photoshopped it.
Looks good to me. It's looks like there is an LED light on the top left corner. Sweet!!! I have an upgrade waiting. Wonder if I use my upgrade to get the low subsidized price or pay full price and sell my 3GS to help defray the cost?
It doesn't look much different from the previous photos. I'm more concerned about the software changes than the hardware ones. A front facing camera would be great for video calling, but I don't know of anyone else who has a device with a front facing camera. So I probably wouldn't use this feature too much. Better screen resolution will be nice. But I would like to see some sort of today screen on the Iphone with multitasking features. Also, I would like to see the messaging features revamped to make it easier and more efficient. Everything else I really don't care too much about. Let's see if it happens!

Don't knock it till you try it. I have had two blackberrys (8320 & 8900), and I was always saying that blackberry was better. Afther I got my iPhone 3g 16gb, I can't put the thing down. The web browser is amazing! It's nice having a 16gb hard drive especially for my apps. This was a pain with the blackberrys that the internal memory were so small. I would download a few apps and the phone was full. Plus the apps are alot better and more selection the blackberry app world have to offer. Plus the screen size is phenominal!
LMAO this was on Apple Insider a while ago, the article states that it was just a concept drawing. Love that the OP has a "buddy at Apple" that confirmed this. Did he confirm that it was a sweet mach up? LOL Not trying to flame the OP but really did you think we wouldn't have seen this pic already.
