Could it finally happen? Could Verizon and Apple be planning to partner up with the 4th generation iPhone this summer? A report in TheStreet.com is any indication; Apple is equipping the next iPhone with CDMA chips built by Qualcomm. Verizon is a CDMA network, and AT&T runs on a GSM network.

We know that the exclusivity deal with AT&T is due to end in the summer, so will we see Apple and Verizon joining hands in 2010? Phones Review said that the Verizon network is not ready just yet for the iPhone. The funny thing is, Apple did go to Verizon first but it seems that they had too many demands for them, which is why AT&T got and still has the deal with the iPhone.

"iPhone"

You would have thought that Verizon would be doing all they can to get a deal with Apple and its iPhone; after all, it is the best selling handset on the market. No matter what new smartphone is launched, none of them can compete with the iPhone 3GS.

Verizon recently launched the Motorola Droid; sales have not made a dent in the iPhone 3GS. Google launched its Nexus One; its sales have been laughably. Just imagine what sales will be like for the rumored iPhone 4G, which is rumored to be released in the first part of this year.

New iphone in april?

A new report Monday from FoxNews.com cites an anonymous source to claim Apple will introduce its tablet, “iPhone 4″ and iLife 2010 at next week’s event. Reports say Apple will be introducing three new products. Unfortunately iPhone hardware will not be introduced. Reports also say iphone OS 4.0 will be part of the event.

“I spoke to a source at Apple this morning, before the invite hit my inbox, who said the event would likely focus on three projects: The tablet device, iPhone 4, and a new round of iLife 2010 software,” Morris wrote. “While we won’t see new iPhone hardware just yet, we will see the next-generation software.” (Clayton Morris)

Don’t get your hopes up to high; Apple has been known to change its mind about what products to introduce at the last minute. For example last September’s iPod, the iPod touch was suppose to have a camera. Due to rumored technical issues decided at the last minute not to include it. It has been reported that Apple is still intends to add a camera to the ipod touch.

Rumors from earlier this month suggest the Apple tablet could be shipped with a multi touch version of iwork. Rumors did not say if iLife would be available for the tablet. Earlier Monday, Apple sent out invitations to the event at the Yerba Buena center for the Arts in San Francisco. Company used the tagline “Come see our latest creation” to invite select members of the press.

Last month, select developers were supposedly asked to prepare full screen demos of there iPhone applications for a public unveiling. Reports have said that some have been working with a new software development kit, iPhone OS 4.0, that includes a “simulator” that aims to make it easy for developers to adapt their software to different screen resolutions.

Could we be looking at a new generation of iphone in April? Reports indicate new iphone 3Gs will come with high-definition OLED screens. According to a news piece published in the Korea Times earlier today, a high-ranking executive of domestic carrier KT, who asked not to be named, said it plans to introduce the ‘iPhone 4G’ in April.

According to the un-named source, the next generation iphone will also have live video chat, a better camera and a removable battery. In addition to all the new goodies added to the new iphones, the same source says the Apple’s new smart phone will also have dual core processors, more powerful graphic chips and a higher megapixel camera to boot. It’s early days yet, but “KT and Apple have reached a broad consensus to introduce the advanced models as early as possible,” he added.

reports refer to the upcoming smartphone as the “iPhone 4G” or “4G iPhone,” it’s 99 per cent certain that the “G” refers to “generation” and not 4G wireless broadband capability as, for example, Sprint and Clearwire brand their WiMAX service.

Higher-resolution graphics seem a safe bet for the next generation of iPhones, seeing as how the current iPhone’s display is a behind-the-curve HVGA 480-by-320 pixel, 3.5-inch TFT LCD, while that pesky upstart the Nexus One enjoys a lovely WVGA 800-by-480 pixel, 3.7-inch AMOLED.

Earlier this month, it was alleged that Apple’s rumored Jan. 27 event could include the introduction of iPhone OS 4.0. One report claimed the new software developer kit includes a “simulator” that makes it easy for developers to adapt to different screen resolutions.
Apple is widely expected to introduce its long-rumored tablet device at the event later this month. This week, one rumor claimed that Apple has not issued any updates for the iPhone in some time because the next version has many tablet-related references that the company did not want to leak in advance of its planned unveiling.
