I bet money... Jobs goes on and on about how magical the new iPhone OS is.

Multi-tasking.
Front Facing Camera.
New design.
(assuming "lost" prototype is on the money... of course).

Never mentioning that pretty much everything "new" to the iPhone is a copy or attempt to catchup to the new kid on the block. Doing stuff that everyone else has done first, and better, than Apple.

I honestly don't care if anyone else gets the iPhone. I just like heckling "The Faithful" during the wait.

The longer Apple goes WITHOUT doing it, the further they dig themselves out of the hands of future customers. More people are learning that Apple isn't the coolest kid on the block anymore.

THAT is the only reason I see Apple breaking or changing i...

Ya, it's become increasingly apparent to anyone with enough brains to see the IPHONE is not the best kid on the block anymore; pretty pedestrian phone actually. I agree with you about the ATT thing but Stevie boy has shown he's pretty hard headed. Ok, he's a ****head.
Personally I like this rendering/mockup of the new IPHONE on utube:

Either way tomorrow will tell the tale.

Based on what i've heard recently from people inside Verizon that have hinted at the Iphone, the Ipad and Iphone are in the middle of testing so it doesn't look like it will happen this year but probably February 2011 when the first LTE/CDMA phone is released.

Although in the last couple days, blogs have been getting multiple tips that Radio Shack's system shows a Verizon/Sprint Iphone in their system. So who knows.

This is kinda like when the weatherman predicts 20" of snow and it's 60 degrees and sunny instead.

Sorry, IPHONE phreaks out there... you'll just have to KEEP WAITING, as predicted (by me and others).

AT&T's upgrade offer for iPhone 4 is "generous," as Steve Jobs put it. Any iPhone owner eligible for an upgrade any time this year can upgrade immediately—up to six months early. But maybe you shouldn't.

You're probably familiar with the standard contract-subsidized phone. By tying yourself to a carrier for 2 years, they pick up most of the cost of your new phone. Then you wait 2 years to renew your contract—so the carrier can recoup the money they fronted you on the phone—and pick up a new one at that deeply discounted rate, beginning the cycle all over again.
