Theres gonna be alot more to it. We will have a 1gig or higher processor for one. With the HTC HD2 with the snapdragon already being out there and that other phone the Sony whatever with the same 1gig processor.
We already know that 4.0 is a new phone. Why would they change the look and everything just for some minor tweaks they could do on a 3gs update. With the way apple is, this phone will come out in July 2010 and no phone on the market will be able to compete or come close to it. And any phone reviewer will probaly rate it a 9.5-10 on every category. It will be bad, lol.

i love my iphone, really really do, but i dont see what you are saying as going to happen. we can dig up all the old threads about what the 3GS was supposed to be, and it wasnt. heck, look at what just happend with the ipod touch, no camera. and thats saying that there were pics, leaks, everything. i think that apple may have something up their sleeve as far as the os is concerned, but i dont see a major style change coming. i agree that the new iphone will probably be the bees knees, but i dont think its going to deviate much from where we are at now. why change something that is proven to sell and be accepted? yes, they should add stuff to the os, and i think thats whats going to happen. but i think the 3GS will still get all if not most of what the new phone gets as well. heck, the 3G is pretty much a slower iphone without a compass or video.
