“The news is not surprising since the same thing has happened around this time of year for the past few years,” Weintraub reports. “This is the traditional time that Apple starts testing new iPhone hardware for release in summer.”
Weintraub reports, “What is interesting about today’s information is that the new iPhone hardware is denoted as 3,1… The 3,1 moniker indicates that the new iPhone hardware is a significant upgrade from the iPhone 3GS -perhaps one with a processor from PA Semi.”

Hmm, I bet someone’s trotting around the Bay Area with a new Apple Tablet!
Trick those tablet rumor people into just thinking it’s a new iPhone, very cleaver Steve, very cleaver.
I miss the old days when diviners and rumor mongers used to study the entrails of freshly sacrificed animals in order to determine what the future held.
I blame PETA.
good argument, but it could also mean a slightly changed design, or maybe another sensor? anything else other than a magnetometer?

Something else for Teabaggers to whine about!
@ jake;
Since the only whining done is by you, it sure looks like anti-teabaggers have whined to me!
Nice try at spreading hate filled rhetoric though…
Not!
Blackwolf… dude.. I hate to be “spelling guy”….. “cleaver?” its clever…
Sorry about that, but I know your intention is not to chop poor Steve up…. ;
@iPhoneEnvy,
BlackWolf and qka are working together.
And “Jake” is working with a whole crowd – all inside his own head. Interesting, though, that he would suggest that the Ultra-Radical-Right – also known as The Crackpot Brigade – would have something to say about a new product from a member of the Big Business community. OK, true, a Big Business with oft-stated opinions well to the Left of Adolf Hitler … still …
Or was the reference to the ORIGINAL Teabaggers? Those separatist nuts in Boston who wasted a bunch of loose-leaf by dumping it in the swill that was the harbor at the time?
Anyway … something On Topic: “iPhones were found using apps with tracking software” and “hardware is denoted as 3,1” … what are these guys doing to GET this information? Just curious. Not an electronics geek.
Teabaggers unite! Take our country back. Oh! and let’s have a tablet soon.
So this weekend AT&T;was offering refurbished 16GB 3gs for $49, and refurb 32gb 3gs for $150. As early as last week they only had 8GB 3G for the $49 price. I ordered 4 phones and saved $600 bucks. I’m anxiously awaiting arrival of the box right now. Time to retire my 1st gen..
perhaps it runs on marshmallows…. perhaps.
No, this is very cleaver: http://tinyurl.com/yguxkst

“perhaps with a processor from PA Semi”
Or perhaps with built-in windshield wipers. We don’t know. And neither does this analyst.
