New iPhone 5 Thinner Lighter & Packing 8MP Camera A Bit Like The Galaxy S 2 - Channel News

iPhone 5 Thinner, lighter, high resolution camera (time to re-gift my 5MP digital camera).

But, no word on memory. I am expecting it to have a 32GB headroom. Apple is a master of portfolio management. The sooner they add 64-100GB in an iPhone, the sooner they will kill their own iPod. This is not likely any time soon. Of course when killer multi-media requires much more memory than the current iPod sports then both lines can move up and remain a distinct product line separation. I am not sure what will justify this. Perhaps if you can store your movie collection on an iPhone and connect it to your TV and still maintain HD Video, thereby obsolescing your DVD player...probably not any time soon. Perhaps a killer app that controls your networked home from lighting, HVAC, to security alarm with security video all requiring significant data and programming space.... Probably not there yet. Although, you can use it as a remote for your tv. Perhaps something integrated into car electronics including diagnostics....

Whatever it is I am sure Apple or their partners will devise some reason for us to quench the insatiable thirst for memory to enable something that doesn't exist today.
