We’ve got tomorrow’s handsets

The iPhone finally got rid of those “playful” curved edges, opting for a more serious look, at least in designer Isamu Sanada’s concept. It seems to be a thicker device now, but it may be an optical illusion. Also, this option of getting rid of the curved edges, seems to leave a lot of unused room at the iPhone 2.0’s top and bottom side.

Wow! Check out that 3G iPhone…again?! It’s probably the fifth time I’m seeing the “real” deal handset, so I won’t believe any picture till I see the genuine launch date edition of the device. The iPhone 2.0 is yet again “plasticky” and curved, making rumour for a bigger battery in order to stand that 3G battery drainer.
It would be a pretty weird choice for Apple, now that even the MacBook and iPod aren’t white any more, but the even worse thing is that there’s no front camera for videocalls incorporated. Let’s just hope it’s a good Photoshop, not a bad spy pic.

Seems that there’s been an iPhone 3G design contest going on and we weren’t aware of that. We’ve got 3 great pics showing you what the iPhone 2.0 should look like. They were posted on Flickr by the user youngSPACE:
There’s also a specs list mentioned, that includes a sturdy titanium and glass design, an OLED screen, True GPS, iChat camera, 3G data speed and a removable battery (yay!). Add a standard headphone jack to that and a 3.2 megapixel camera that’s also video capable and a 32GB internal memory and we’ve got a hit.
The iPhone 2.0 also includes a Sleep Wake button, 2 neat speakers and it measures 4.5 inches (height), 2.4 inches (width) and 9mm (thickness).

Clamshells are extremely popular right now, in fact, so popular, that we’re surprised that the original iPhone wasn’t a clamshell in the first place. Nothing that can’t be solved with an Apple patent, though. Apple’s most recent patent application is called “Dual sided trackpad” and basically turns the iPhone into a dual touchscreen clamshell, the iPhone 2.0 concept phone if you want.
The cool iPhone above is a Photoshop rendering of Apple’s patent, showing an entirely new concept, that features the display and touch panel as two separate units. Interestingly enough, this panel is touch sensitive on both its sides and a hinge comes into play turning Apple’s hit into a flip phone.
Keep the handset closed and the transparent panel covers the display and makes the phone a regular iPhone, but once you open it, you’ll be able to use the other side of the panel as a multi touch input device.
