  • Just goes to show you the power of leveraging and timing.And one more thing… Perhaps Apple can start a Professional Services arm of their company to focus on new product introductions.

    New Apple iPhone rumor?

    Apple

    Rumors can magically appear and fly faster that Superman, but the next iPhone from Apple cannot be built instantly. The brief rumor from JP Morgan about an iPhone mini spread like wildfire, but turned out to be contrived.Or was it?Digging from another angle, it is more than just rumors about the next Apple iPhone. Semiconductor companies are jockeying for orders from Apple on the next iPhone. From the LCD display, wireless chipsets, flash memory, and EMS companies would love to fill their manufacturing lines with Apple products and they are getting equally aggressive to win business with Apple. My best guess is that a new iPhone will hit the market within the next 6 months, possible Christmas or at the annual WWDC in January. And if it is not actually available, an announcement will definitely be made.

    So how can I substantiate my rumors? I only have the past history of Apple and it’s product launches to know that they do not stop at Rev 1 of any product. Just for the iPod, there are over a dozen models! (This includes the custom versions, such as the U2 iPod and PRODUCT RED) So based on this somewhat scientific analysis, another iPhone is coming. I am not sure a mini or nano version will is next, but if I had to make an educated guess, I hope it involves HSDPA, more memory, and a slew of applications.
