iPhone 5 coming soon?

While in Malaysia, the people are still drooling all over the iPhone 4, which still haven’t reach our shore yet. The Cupertino’s company are planning to solved the iPhone 4 antenna issue once and for all with a next-gen iPhone model.

According to the source—and we (iLounge) have to say that we find this part hard to believe—Apple is pushing up the release date of the fifth-generation iPhone to early 2011 (as soon as January) because of the antenna issues with the iPhone 4. It’s unknown whether this will be a repackaging of iPhone 4 components in a different shell or something more substantial. We (iLounge) reiterate: it’s hard to believe. But as with so many seemingly far-fetched early reports, it’s not impossible.

The rumour isn't all that sexy but probably has the most truth to it; it involves Apple allegedly developing less expensive all-silicone Bumper cases to distribute to consumers as part of its iPhone 4 Case Program.
