    This guy really went out on a limb with the predictions.

    New dock connector and make it incompatible with all the accessories? Seem's very Apple like although the dock connector has been consistent. I personally don't have accessories or cases so it's alright with me.

    Wouldn't like the new dock connector, although it would make room for battery. Being that the new iPhone should have LTE, I would gladly have a slightly larger phone with a smaller dock connector and more battery. Knowing Apple, they will get it right. iPad 3 has LTE and battery life is same.

    I don't even care about phone data. I use Wi-Fi every where I go so if it has LTE or 3G it's not an issue for me. I want to see at least a 4" screen, 802.11ac for faster Wif-Fi, rounder back because it feels better, and an HD front camera for better Facetime. If it comes with LTE I will just trun it off and save battery life.
    They gave it a larger battery that takes another hour to charge to keep the run time the same.

    Sorry 3.5" is to small. LTE sucks because it is a battery hog. I want a 4" or I may switch to Android. 4" is the perfect size for a phone. I can reach across the screen with one hand and it is not to big and not to small when talking about the actual phone size. I just really want a bigger screen.

    And they drop the iPhone 5 right before they left. Then someone comes and takes it and upload photos to the internet. As sirens come blazing down the street the person gets busted for the stolen iPhone. "Hey we got you because of the Fast 4G LTE and pin point GPS."

    xD

    Shouldn't they be trying to add a thunderbolt cable to the iOS devices? Maybe the new dock would work via thunderbolt... Then they'd be able to push people in to using it more, instead of USB. And then they could sell the new smaller USB cables separately, so people will just be more inclined to use the thunderbolt connector :)

    I mean... it's there, they added it to the mac for a reason, but barely any third party company uses it, and it'd seem weird that Apple wouldn't nourish it and help it grow and just leave it sitting there.

    I think it's likely it'll just be called iPhone and they'll drop the numbers all together.
    Why would it be called "The New iPhone", considering nothing else in their product line has that name?

    Of course it will have 4G.

    And, I HATE TAPERED CONCEPTS LIKE THAT. Nobody likes the iPod touch 4's razor edge.* It's extremely uncomfortable to hold for any period of time longer than a few minutes without a case that adds considerable bulk to the sides. It works for the iPad because it doesn't have a hard edge on the edge, it's rounded, softer. That edge on something the size of an iPhone would be very ugly though. (As shown on the concept above. Meh-looking.)

    *If you do like the iPod touch 4's tapered razor edge, you must be holding the device by pinching it up with the tips of your fingers or something, not by actually holding it in your hand. (Or you're lying to yourself.)
