Engadget posted some new iPhone rumors over here….

The first thing people will notice: the 2nd gen iPhone will be about the same size and shape as the first gen.
It will, of course, have 3G. And proper GPS!
The most noticeable physical difference is back of the phone is no longer metal — the whole thing is glossy black, from top to bottom. The volume buttons are now chrome.
Because it’s got a little less metal to deal with, it doesn’t have quite as many angular edges. The battery is (still) not removable.
The phone itself will be slightly thicker than the first gen device.
The headphone jack will no longer be recessed, and will finally be flush with the body.
The device itself uses roughly the same size and resolution screen as the first generation product.
No solid word on battery life or storage capacity.

Looks interesting. They could have tried to do something about the [still?] irremovable battery though.

Bingo. My dad is probably gonna get an iPhone now that there’s 3G and GPS. It now looks like a hell of a deal.

I hope they open this one up to more phone companies! Drop the exclusivity to ATT, APPLE!

No can do on that one, I’m afraid. The iPhone as a whole was made exclusive for about 5 years so that Apple could have the liberty it needed to develop the product.

Sounds cool, but,and not to be an asshole here or anything, but, you misspelled rumor. No “e”.
