I already granted you that the vote is three to one against me.

2 weeks? Well yes, I have to admit I'll greedily gobble up every announced word about the 3rd gen iPhone. However, I'm focusing on about 2 MONTHS from now, when I can happily give my old iPhone to a friend (in exchange for a painting; he's an artist; I have no idea yet what to ask him to paint for me! But I've got time to think about it) & take home a brand spankin' new iPhone for me!

Part of the excitement is the fact we don't know if there will even be an announcement. Speculation is rampant and personally I can't get enough of it!

I have a feeling things will start to get even more hectic within the next week... something will leak out I'm sure.

I am listening to This Week in Tech (streaming but previously recorded). Much speculation and some claims to inside info. If there is no new phone, these journalists will be very embarrassed. One guy even went so far as to claim to have talked to a "Verizon Wireless exec" who promised an "announcement" in June (2009?). They "believe" in a 3.2 mega-pixel camera, if there is a new iPhone. However, they also talked about a "stealth," (as in invisible to radar) iPhone. (I am pretty sure that the one that I have has never registered on radar.)

(I remember back in the late seventies having a customer, high in the Sears tower, who was worried about having airborne radar interfering with his tape drives. He was not reassured when I told him how close the plane would have to be to his tape drive.)

There was some discussion that "porn mode in Safari is broken," whatever that means.

Signal-to-noise seems marginally higher than mere hope, but it seemed to be more about entertainment value than information. It is being played over and over at TWiT Live - Live Netcasts from TWiT with Leo Laporte and Friends

I'm still not buying into the whole Verizon iPhone deal. But who knows. It will be interesting to say the least.
