For iPad, yeah. Current rumors are early summer for iPhone.

edit: By early summer I mean like June, during WWDC.

Thank you. Looks like I must wait for Summer.

I'll get an iPad 3 when they release… it was so hard not to get the 2 over the holidays. I hope it'll be woth the wait.

and I'll be upgrading from my iPhone 4 whenever the new ones hit.

[bagley920]

So if I'm looking into getting an iphone, I should just wait?

[elclintor]

Yes, Definitely wait… Summer is not that far away!

[GimpKid]

The worst is when new IH gear drops the same time as Apple gear… I try to have a rainy day fund just for this.

I always say don't bother waiting to get an iPhone as they release a new model every year so you will always be waiting. Next iPhone might not be released for another 10 month or so.

My buddy who works at AT&T said summer for the new iphone.

[orlylow]

Feel like getting an iPod Touch because the Blackberry stinks as a music player… but then again the new iPhone is coming out in the summer...

[GimpKid]

The thing with the new iPhone is that it'll most likely be a redesign. This is kind of a double edged sword. While it's the newest iThing and have a want factor of a zillion, it could potentially have design issues (see iPhone 4 antenna-gate).

The good news is that the 4 will then be cheap as shit if you don't like the 5.

Yeah I am waiting to hear about the specs/ see the design of the 5. At that point, I will decide weather to upgrade from the 4 to the 4s (for cheap) or to the 5…

No one really know until they release it everyone is just guessing, I know plenty of people in the industry couple working for apple and even they have no idea. As a business point of view they won't release next iPhone till at least 1 year after the 4s.

Summer is just around the corner so we'll see

[bagley920]

Other than the new design, what are the rumored changes for the 5?

[GimpKid]

@bagley920:

Possibly larger screen. The usual processor upgrade. Camera upgrade. Maybe NFC. I'm not really sure what else they can do at this point.

[bagley920]

NFC?

[GimpKid]

@bagley920:

NFC?

Near field communication. So like you can set your phone on another NFC device to transfer data. The most immediate application of this is using your phone to pay for things by swiping it at the register.

[bagley920]

First "Square", now this, what is this world coming to haha

[GimpKid]

It's scarier than that. Apple could potentially become a HUGE credit card processor if they release an NFC iPhone and allow payment through your iTunes account, which has an extremely large collection of users who use credit cards. They'd probably gouge merchants but they'd still use it.

Used the iPhone 4 camer a to capture this image of my IH-634S.

Used it for all of my backgrounds on my phone.
