iPhone 4th Gen Confirmed! Videos, Pics, Specs
Well, these past 72 hours have been very exciting. It seems as though the 4th generation iPhone that was leaked both back in February 20th and the one from Saturday night is, in fact, real.
There was never any doubt in my mind that this was the next iPhone. Now, Gizmodo has obtained the mysterious device and has even opened it.
As expected, the insides were full of “APPLE” logos and trademarks. It wasn’t a red circuit board, meaning that this may, in fact be, the final production model that we will see in June. I bet Apple is jusf working on the OS.
Now. according to Gizmodo, they managed to get the device, it indeed has a camera flash, way better back facing camera, and a new high resolution front facing camera.
Not only that, but the screen is high resolution. They say that the USB cable picture that the iPhone shows when it’s in restore mode was in such a high resolution, that they couldn’t see any individual pixels.
Not just that, they say that it behaved as an iPhone when hooked up to a computer. iTunes, XCode, and the Finder/Explorer discovered it as an iPhone in DFU mode. As well as the Vendor IDs not matching any previous iPhone.
Now, they do say that it does indeed take microSIMs. This is still a very odd choice to me. I refused to believe this until Gizmodo did a tear down. Now, it is slightly heavier. 3 grams heavier.
So why the new square design? Because it can’t support having curves on it. The internals are as squished together as possible. Apple made the battery 18% larger than the 3GS battery, as well as radically miniturizing the internal parts. Everything is insanely small.

UPDATE 1: I have managed to get the numbers from this prototype iPhone. A lot of the numbers are “XXXXX” which is a sure fire way to confirm that this is a prototype and has not been passed through the FCC or anything.
Flash Memory: XX GB
Model Number: XXXXX
FCC: BCGAXXXXX
IC ID: 579C-AKXXX
UPDATE 2: We have another collection of pics for u 
UPDATE 3: It seems as though the pictures (the one with the multiple pictures in one picture) are from a previous leak from way back in February 20th. Now, add to these newer pictures taken earlier today, and we may have even more evidence that this is the next iPhone. Or atleast, this proves that this is a genuine Apple prototype iPhone 4th generation! One that has already been leaked twice.
Now, this could indicate that this is a controlled leak. Most all companies like to leak a little bit of information to the public (or their audience) to keep them interested and to create buzz.
However, this may also mean that the February 20th leak iPhone may be the same iPhone, its just that it was stolen or forgotten at that bar and was once more pictured.
Or lastly, Apple has had the worst possible luck at keeping the 4th generation iPhone’s look a secret with these leaks.
Only time will tell when it comes to rumors and leaks.

read moreCDMA iPhone (Verizon) News Leaked on Wall Street Journal
Hey everyone. Well, this morning, we had some interesting news coming out of the Wallstreet Journal.
On their home page, they had a “BREAKING NEWS” article that stated that Apple has a working CDMA-iPhone and that they will announce it in June/July as well as a GSM-only iPhone.
Now, WSJ reports that Apple will have 2 iPhones for sale in 2010, one with be CDMA and the other will be GSM, however, the specs are going to be identical.
The iPhone is said to be even thinner than all current iPhones! Now, according to the WSJ, the CDMA iPhone will be announed in June/July, however, production for that will start in September. Now, that puts the launch date at about January 2011.
They even specified who will build the iPhone! They claim that the CDMA iPhone will be built by Pegatron Technology Corp.
Now, the WSJ is the first major media source with information as to a CDMA iPhone, ever! Sure, everyone here has been saying something to this extent for a while, due to our sources, but the Wallstreet Journal is the first to have a story like this, they even felt compelled enough to say “BREAKING NEWS”.
Now, as you recall, I said that my AT&T source said that AT&T’s exclusivity ended as of January 2010, and right now, AT&T doesn’t have (technically) exclusivity, but Apple needed to make deals with other carriers, without deals, AT&T losing their exclusivity contract isn’t anything to us.
Now, I also said that Apple would sell iPhones on both AT&T and T-Mobile this year, and a Verizon iPhone next year, now if the WSJ is right, Verizon will welcome the iPhone a few months sooner than I expected.
However, however. Apple is said to have said “the CDMA iPhone is taking longer that we expected” so that’s why the production will start in September for a late 2010/January 2011 launch.
Now, Verizon is the #1 carrier here in the US, Apple would be opening itself to over 90 million new customers, and if you add T-Mobile, that adds up to about 200 million americans here in the US in total, with Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile carrying the iPhone.
That is a MAJOR market! This move could possibly kill AT&T, AT&T has gained customers due to the iPhone exclusivity, now, without that, a lot of people are going to jump ship for Verizon. This is some scary news if you are an AT&T (T NYSE) stockholder.
As I suspected, AT&T stock has dipped 1.04% and Verizon (VZ NYSE) has gained 2.76% on the iPhone on Verizon news that has rocked the internet this morning.
Well, all we can do is wait for Steve’s iPhone OS 4.0 keynote here in about the 2nd week of April, and then WWDC 2010 in June. I’m very excited to return and hear this news right off the bat! I hope you are all ready, because 2010 is going to be one hell of a year for Apple and us, here, at LEIMobile.com/HackMyPad.com!
Buy An iPhone From Apple Without A Contract
It looks like you will soon be able to buy an iPhone directly from Apple with out signing a 2 year contract with AT&T.
A leaked internal document states that anyone can now purchase an iPhone without signing a contract with AT&T. You are limited to purchasing 10 in a lifetime though. That seems a little weird, but as soon as we receive more information we will let you know.
Pricing is:$499 for the iPhone 3G 8GB, $599 for the iPhone 3GS 16GB, and $699 for the iPhone 32GB.
We are being told that these are not unlocked, so you can still only use these on AT&T and will not be able to use them overseas.
