New 3G iPhone Photos Discovered, iPhone is getting thicker.
New, almost looking like real 3G iPhone photos are discovered at Chinese iPhone website WeiPhone. The phone meets all the specs that were posted previously. We can clearly see it is getting thicker and wider, and has a 3G Camera to the left. This is not the iPhone itself, most likely these are just bodies. Looks like they are being made of plastic, or painted aluminum, without chrome on the borders. If someone knows Chinese and you can translate what do they say on Chinese website please let me know 
Well this photos only look real, no any confirmation, but the fact that they match 3G iPhone case layouts and photos come from China, where they do assemble iPhones, those may be true. We can just wait for MacWorld this summer.
Xenium, juicy iPhone clone by Philips.
Hello world, my name is Xenium, I am a new phone by Philips. I am being developed by Philips for a long time and promised to have a long battery life, but after meteoric iPhone success creators of mine think it would be best idea to make me just another iPhone clone. I’m not pretty sure yet but I have all the features you can find on the iPhone, even orientation sensor. Maybe god will bless me with 3G, anyways I don’t think much about myself, only that I won’t have any buttons, but I will definitely have and Edge To Edge touchscreen. I also have hip name, Xenium, and may I suppose I will go out of order after couple months of use, just like all Philips products. Thank you for your attention, keep an eye on me.
3G iPhone Has a Videocall Camera
Here is a fresh layout for manufacturers of iPhone’s cases. Well there are alot of cases that don’t fit your phone perfectly, thats why you have to buy cases from a well-known companies, like Marware. And these companies are getting device’s specs to make a fitting cases. So company should provide them with as little detail as possible. Here is what they got for the new iPhone, as rumored by iLounge. Look at the top right sketch, it has different sensors arrangement, with third hole added. Why would they need one more hole? For a videochat camera, thats the only explanation by far!
New Fake 3G iPhone look Fresh From the France
This is it, I totally don’t believe in it, so does gizmodo, but hey, isn’t it nice to think that new 3G iPhone is going to look alot better than some guys want it to be. I think it’s time for Apple to announce that damn 3G iPhone, so those rumors were stopped. This one looks like Chinese fake tPhone with rubber coverage. Apple has a habit of doing everything shiny, well I wish new iPhone will look just exactly like the old one, so I won’t be bothered to change my current ;)
And if you think the front of this fake rumor looks more that awful, try back:
And thanks for iphon.fr for showing us their endless imagination skills.

More photos and better story on BGR
iPhone killer comes, beware Apple!
Blackberry 9000? Promised to come this May, this phone should play a big role for the R.I.M. because since the iPhone their sales have fallen down, plus iPhone is going enterprise - which R.I.M. can’t afford to happen, today’s most “enterprise friendly” phones are Blackberrys.
It’s not going to be a touchscreen as it seems, because R.I.M.’s CEO Mike Lazaridis says:
“It’s hard to type on a piece of glass.”
To me it sounds like:
“It’s hard to type on a piece of shit.”
And you know why? Because Apple is getting a big creamy piece of their pie now, Sad R.I.M., R.I.M. not happy! Here is smartphone sales chart: 
Awaited spects are a little better than the iPhone’s, but basically. So let’s wait for it.
P.S. Here is an interesting quote from recent NYT article:
Two independent developers writing software for coming R.I.M. devices say that a touch-screen BlackBerry is in the works, and that R.I.M. engineers privately refer to it as the A.K. — for “Apple Killer.”
P.P.S. Where is Android?
LG Prada 3G, oops, II Coming This Year (wow!)
Rumor has it, it will have the same 3-inch touchscreen, and bunch of other very fancy stuff. Sources say it’s going to have a front camera, which means it will support 3G, and slide-out full QWERTY keyboard. How are they gonna fit it in there? Looks like LG is working very hard to get their phone look like iPhone, and now, like X1? I’m still confused what’s PRADA about, a black color, very outstanding designers work! Thanks to Unwired View.
New iPhone SDK Beta - Yes to Backgrond Processes?
The most dissappointing thing in SDK was that Apple limited software to run as a background process, which means, you won’t be able to have programs such as Instant Messagers, or maybe apps for themes and many more possabilities. Here is the quote of an developer who has reviewed latest SDK Beta 4:
There are definitely some very interesting methods added to UIApplication’s delegate, including methods for badging the Springboard icon, and methods related to gaining and resigning “active” status - seems like background apps may be permitted somehow.
Apple iPhone 3G design rumor
So here is the rumored 3G iPhone back.
Well, as long as most rumors concerning Apple iPhone are made just to get some attention, I have decided to write my own opinion about this one.
I’ve tried to come up with something that will approve this design, but found nothing that would make Apple do the 3G iPhone like the picture above.
First of all, this one looks like it’s made of plastic. -1, lately Apple does every product made of aluminum, it’s even rumored that they are going to do their MacBook with aluminum cover just like their MacBook Pro and Air. And also Apple does all things shiny, but they could serve a variety for some spoiled UK and French people who would want to stand out of American crowd.
With a little effort yo could do this yourself, not even with a Photoshop, there are commercially available black skins for iPhone.
One more last detail - writing at the back, it’s very blurry and it’s out of format. Take a look at iPhone’s original back, and the first iPhone ever introduced’s back, They look no way like the one on this *most likely fake* 3G iPhone back.
And, last but not least, quality looks extremely crappy, if you had a MacBook and exclusively 3G iPhone, I guess you would certainly found a good camera to get some good flicks, and not only one with bad quality. But you would certainly did the bad quality if this was an attempt to get some visitors on your blog about mobile phones :)
