More iPhone Details?

I foresee Apple promoting the fact that when buying songs from iTMS, that the songs can be used as ringtones on the iFone. I don't see Apple selling another ringtone format. Heck, you can purchase the whole song for $.99.

But, here is a twist on the iFone - you can set a playlist to be your ringtone list and it will shuffle between them!

I think I see where you are going with the rename of iTMS since it will be the hub for music, movies, tv shows and phone integration, but I don't think iLife will be it since they have that already used. iTunes Media Store? Much like they have the iPod brand, I don't see them ditching on the iTunes brand either.

I agree 100%, I don't see ANY way apple would ditch the iTunes name, possibly iTunes Media Store.

I will gladly wait 50 years for this phone to be released... knowing Apple it is going to be that good

Agreed. So many crappy phones come out every day. Why not wait for a really, really great one?

I'm looking forward to the Apple CD and DVD players, PDAs, and digital cameras (video and still) mentioned in the same sentence myself... ;P

Digital Lifestyle
The Company believes that for both professional and consumers the personal computer has become the center of an evolving digital lifestyle by integrating and enhancing the utility of advanced digital devices such as the Company's iPods, digital video and still cameras, televisions, CD and DVD players, cellular phones, personal digital assistants, and other consumer electronic devices."

I agree w/ peharri. Unless you're planning on seeing Apple video/still cameras, TV, CD/DVD players, PDAs and "other consumer electronic devices", I don't think their mention of "celluar phones" means much in that context.

Why not a WIFI iPhone?

I can't see Apple coping with carriers and competitors like Nokia, and Motorola, but CAN see Apple chasing the 100,000,000 user plus PTP phone market with a wifi phone. I've got a dozen other reasons, but it adds up to 1,200 words that can't fit here. But check out the rationale on my blog, CogentPassion:
