“The device will include the A5 processor, the more powerful chip that Apple added to the iPad 2 earlier this year, along with an 8-megapixel camera, up from the 5-megapixel model in the iPhone 4, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the details aren’t public,” Culpan, Burrows and Satariano report. “Apple is also testing a new version of the iPad that has a higher resolution screen, similar to the one now used in the iPhone 4, one of the people said.”
Culpan, Burrows and Satariano report, “Apple pushed back the release of the next iPhone — its fifth — to coincide with the release of the new iOS 5, the people said… Apple is also working to finish a cheaper version of the iPhone aimed at attracting customers in developing countries, the people said.
