The iPad is not a large iPhone. The iPhone is a small iPad.
I am very excited for the next iPhone…
I think it will have some great features, learning from the iPad; a 1GHz processor, an all-aluminum back (like the first iPhone), and a gorgeous screen. Not to mention it'll come with iPhone firmware 4.0!
All the past iPhone upgrades have been small. Collectively, all they added was 3G, GPS, a faster processor, and a video camera. Not much to brag about. The Nexus One and Android are a serious threat to the iPhone. While not as elegant and nice, they have many features that some nerds lust about–regardless of the ugly UI. The iPhone needs to stay on top. The first iPhone destroyed competition. The 3G and the 3GS…well…not so much. As Steve himself said, the next iPhone will be an A+ upgrade.
I think with the addition of a powerful processor, the next iPhone will allow multiple apps to be open simultaneously, as well as a 5 megapixel camera, and an incredibly long-lasting battery.

Dear N00b,
The reason the iPhone 3G and 3Gs has a plastic backing is because it lets the radios for wifi and 3G work better.
Dear Colby,
thank you for that. But I already know. The iPod touch has a metal backing. But it has a little spot for the WiFi antenna. Also, N00B, did you know that the bezel on the iPhone is an external antenna? So is the camera hole bezel. I do think the next iPhone will have a metal back, and if it does, it'll have a piece of plastic like the first gen iPhone.
