    For a tech blog it's funny how little you know about product development. 8 months is the last stretch in CE product development - 18 months is the cycle from concept to actual.

    "Apple's products are built just-in-time to avoid stock congestion or last minute changes." This may be true for ICs, screens or so but not necessarily plastics; especially if they know what the footprint of the PCB will be (I assume so) they could start their pilot on housing right about now and one of those parts can make its way to the spare part guys as heads up. #iphone2010

    "Apple's products are built just-in-time to avoid stock congestion or last minute changes. They don't have parts ready eight months before release."
    True, but design is finalized months before release, and then there are the many prototyping iterations. And let's face it, that midboard is pretty freakin' generic. Maybe if I saw the next-gen #00 Phillips screws, I might be more convinced? ;-) #iphone2010

    @Geraldo: That's what I concluded, that maybe they obtained parts specs not from production (as on the 3GS) but someone involved in prototyping. #iphone2010

    The question is could Apple come out with an update to the iphone just 6 months after the 3GS? I think so, for 3 reasons.

    1. To me the 3GS was really more a speed bump than a real next generation update. So this would be an update to the 3G from 1.5 years back.

    2. This could be the iphone being released to Verizon

    3. At the pace Android phones are being released and the progress of the OS, in another 6 months the 3GS will feel and may actually be dated. #iphone2010

    @Serpentor reads Gizmodo: people will *freak* *out* if they bought a "new" iphone only this summer and another "new" one comes out at christmas. it'll be the $600 to $400 price drop all over again. I don't think there's any way apple's doing this. #iphone2010

    Did all of you miss the last line of the article? Too busy getting pissed off to bother finishing it?

    "you should pretty much assume that from here on out, every machine you're using could be yapping on its cellphone."

    These small SIM's will most likely be for gadgets BESIDES your cell phone.

    Idiots.

    I could just see fancy spas opening up that offer SIM tourists the ability to bathe in tubs filled with millions of SIMs. As crazy as it sounds... I have to say I'd be tempted.
