Daring Fireball’s John Gruber rarely deals with rumors, so when he says “Based on information from informed sources” I tend to believe him. He goes on to detail what he believes will be in the new iPhone. Not much more than the rumors, but he lays out things in a way that you think, yeah, that makes sense. It’s a good read. I particularly like this paragraph:
A new computer almost always feels faster than the one it replaces. In the old days, though, every few years you’d get a computer with not just a faster processor but a next-generation processor, and the resulting performance increase was dramatic. For the Mac, those were bumps like the first 68030s and 68040s, or the first batch of PowerPCs. For the PC, the 386, 486, and Pentium.
Based on information from informed sources, I believe the processor in the next-generation iPhone is going to be that kind of upgrade.
