Leaked Image and Specs of New iPhone? Maybe

     There have been multiple rumors saying there will be a new iPhone released this June or July. According to sources claiming to be very close to Apple's hardware team state that the new iPhone will arrive on July 17th. It is said that the new iPhone will have 1.5x more battery life then the 3g, and the camera will be bumped up from 2 mega-pixels to 3.2 mega-pixels. The 16 GB will sell for $199, replacing the 8 GB's, and a new 32 GB will sell for $299. It is also rumored that the all so stylish apple logo will glow, and it will have a matte finish rather than glossy.

Here are a list of Specs

• 32GB and 16GB storage (up from the current 16GB and 8GB models)
• $199 and $299 price points to be maintained

To further the speculation I have embedded my take on the rumored iPhone and have dubbed it the iPhone Pro. Looking at the entire picture it seems to me that apple will not deliver on all these updates. From a business perspective Apple needs to have the user wanting new features. If Apple where to release the perfect device it would sell immensely at the beginning but when it comes time to release an iPhone version 4 Apple wouldn't be able to convince it's install base to upgrade again. There will be an new iPhone in June, and it will be a large improvement over the 3G, but it won't include everything on this list.
