    In the days leading up to any major Apple event. the rumors tend to reach a frenzy with an avalanche of reports and images claiming to be real. The most common "fake" images that begin circulating are mockups that claim to be screenshots from Apple's site. Unless these "leaks" were actually witnessed by a large audience of people, they have historically always been fake.

    The latest of these images come from italian site SpazioCellulare who posted an image yesterday and a more convincing set today (embedded above) that seems one of the more believable images that have been posted. The image appears to reflect many of the circulating rumors that have been released about the iPhone and as such may simply be an ambitious mockup. TUAW notes there are some unique findings to the images, however. There appears to be an extra button on the lower-side of the case (camera shutter?) and the headphone jack for the iPhone appears to have moved down to the bottom of the unit. We certainly aren't confident that these images are real, but do serve as interesting speculation.

    Some other rumors with even less evidence surrounding them include claims of iPhone Video and a German launch (iFun.de) of the next iPhone set for June 19th.

    We're only 4 days away from the WWDC keynote. Stay tuned.

    I wish they could put a new higher res screen there, something like 800*640

    The current one is quite poor, small fonts look fuzzy and headache inducing

    i'm eagerly waiting for next year when my sister will be upgrading and giving me her old iphone 3g!! :D :D The new one looks promising but i'll get it after 2years,i.e after my sister upgrades...phones are not that important for me and i use it just to send texts and receive some phone calls from time to time.
