...and so begins rumours for next year, though actually this is non-news as it tells us zero about whatever is leaving this footprint
I love the iPhone experience but I prefer to keep grounded and refuse to get caught up in the rumour hype

It can be true as MacRumours have always been right.
Rumours are more interesting if pics or videos or atleast info is available.

Macrumors has posted false information by sources that didn't have it all together. Macrumors is a HUGE Apple community if not the largest, and the like to keep a running track record of all their sources.
3 main changes in hardware is what I'm hoping for:
Cortex A9 based cpu allowing for SMP.
5MP camera with LED flash, Zoom & touch focus during recording in Video.
Higher resolution screen, size increase not really needed. And game API's to allow for better shading, polygons and all that jazz.
Software changes:
iPod & playlists to be rearranged, adjusted on the device (not horrible track named new playlists)
SMP support via iPhone OS taking advantage of Cortex A9 based cpu.
Searching within Safari displayed webpages like the desktop version.
higher resolution support - hopefully without breaking too much software compatibility!
All over the blog/forums I've stated the advantages specific to allowing 4 apps simultaneously (headless or head) with the exception of games.

I am hoping for a better cam with flash and af.
Higher resolution screen and divx capability.

A higher res screen would be nice, but it should maintain 100% compatibility with all existing apps (which I'm sure it will) and I'd hope they don't start making UI elements smaller just for the sake of it - ie, despite the higher resolution, the home screen icons should be just as big and finger friendly as they are now (which I guess still means limiting them to 20 per screen).
Looking at some of the comparison pictures between the iPhone and the X10 for example, while some are raving over the better resolution of the X10, all I can see is a lot of smaller, fiddlier icons which are going to be harder to see and press...
A better camera is always nice, although (as a 3G owner) the 3GS's snapper still seems good to me. I'm a firm believer in the principle of not chasing megapixels for the sake of it on a slim device like this - unless you have some complete breakthrough in optical technology, a much higher megapixellage has to mean either a bulkier phone or shoddy pictures - Apple know this.
OS wise, I think it's about time they introduced a common file store - similar to the Photos and Videos library but open to different, perhaps pre-registered file types like documents etc - so you could then save an attachment from one application (like email) and then open it up from another (Quickoffice for example). That would massively simplify the work of a lot of the existing apps - although these would obviously need to be re-written in part - and make the iPhone much more ready for business use. It would also provide an obvious place for files to be received and sent from via Bluetooth, although I'm not too interested in that personally.
Other than that... lots more memory and a cheaper price, and I'll take one in July, thanks. After 11 months with the 3G, there's absolutely no question in my mind that my next phone will also be an iPhone of some sort, so bring it on. And if the new, new phone isn't all that better/cheaper, I'll take a 3GS when that takes over from the 3G as the budget alternative.

I agree as 9 times out of 10 Apple rumours are usually wrong

Um with MobileMe you already have that!
iCal, Mail, AddressBook, iDisk, yup its all there. For 3rd party: Things (but costs you for the desktop & iPhone app), FileApp is FREE for direct loading of apps/files into the iPhone over WLAN, DropBox/Box.net just to name a few.

I have no care for Flash within the browser: Flash Lite or pure Flash. HTML5 is already in Safari in the iPhone and its quite capable of the same things using standard coding. This means pretty much same features, using long known standards with new tags, meaning much quicker development (GoogleWave is one such HTML5 example). In order to have Flash (full) you need serious memory and cpu to get it done right (plenty Linux/Android MIDs, Nokia N900 Meamo5). Flash Lite, although it was great on the Nokia S60 devices (which I've personally used) it was SLOW to load pages - this could be specific to the slow older 434mhz ARM11 based cpu's without hardware acceleration.
There is a HUGE thread warring over YES/NO to Flash in iPhone over at macrumors.com

but that's a paid service and overkill if all you want to do is sync the phone without plugging cables in. There's no good reason why iTunes on the mac couldn't automatically connect and sync to the phone via Bluetooth or even just wifi.
That said, I can see a time coming when MobileMe goes free and just becomes a bundled service with iPhone ownership (in the same way that Android phones come with google services, etc).

Forgot about it being paid. You and MobileMe just sent me a reminder for 7days left before creditcard (maxed out) gets charged. Thanks for the reminder.
Actually you're right, it SHOULD be a pkg free service, maybe in July2010 Apple will give us this.
