New Iphone to be released this summer

New iPhone announcement around mid-June (duh)
New iPhone will be faster and have a more seamless experience unmatched by any device (could be just talking about 3.0, but we think it's also a new iPhone)
U-Verse iPhone application; will allow control of your home DVR (play, pause, rewind, etc.)
The annual iPhone launch is "becoming a tradition."
Nothing official is being confirmed, but they said that people should prep for an exciting time this summer.
AT&T is said to be working with Apple to create a unified product with an unparalleled experience across all their products and services.
Apple's 3.0 software should tell us where the iPhone platform is going... uh, k?
They said customers shouldn't need to choose from AT&T's high-end devices because of features, they should choose based on preferences. The gap in capability should be filled with the new iPhone. Ok, bets on slide out QWERTY, autofocus camera, video sharing, blah blah?
Seems like the higher speed HSDPA (7.2Mbps) is being hinted at too which should confirm the earlier rumors of the new Infineon chipset.
The $99 3G netbook will start selling this summer, and the first one won't be a Windows OS.

Sounds great.. I love my iPhones.. Ive had 3 or 4 of them now.. for me and the wife.. Not sure I could live without it now..

I'm excited for:  slide out QWERTY & autofocus camera
I like the touch screen and all, but don't find the use all that easy.

That was released w/ Apples new update for the iphone v3.0. That was already released info 2 weeks ago I believe. Don't need a new phone to do that.

Ah!  I have the one prior to 3G, can I get an update and get that capability?

I don't think so.

You are EXACTLY right.. that was the work around for people w/ the iphone.. but the fact that you cannot send a photo to my phone (no web browser) is stupid.
