Here is my professional mock-up of the 4G iPhone. Note that the component protruding from the top of the phone is not an antenna. It is actually a retractable multi-purpose spear.

You know, I've been following these forums for a long time now, and I've seen probably hundreds of mockups, but I don't think I've ever seen anyone successfully predict what a product was going to look like.

Agreed. However, some are pretty nice looking. This one, not so much.
 
The closer a product is to perfection the less it's going to need to be changed. I'm not saying the iPhone is perfect, it could stand some tweaking, but isn't it just possible they got it pretty close to right from the beginning and thus all that's really needed are changes of an evolutionary, rather than revolutionary nature, a continued process of refinement rather than a reinvented phone every 2 years? Change for the sake of change is, well, stupid.

Hypothetically, even if apple perfected the design and the phone couldn't be any better, every 2 years people would want it to change, even if it means a lesser functioning device simply because people always seem to get bored and want something new and different, sad but true.

Can I send an MMS with the spear?

Can I take the spear onto an airplane?

Will the iPhone come with a safety cover for the spear so it won't poke me in the nards when I put it in my pocket?

If you answer yes, yes, and yes, then I'll buy one.

The spears main purpose is for use with that Bump! application. Now instead of bumping your iphone with another one you just stick your spear in the nearest hottie and all her info gets placed on your phone. It also runs blood tests and tests for HIV!!!
