Apple iPhone - To Be, or Not to Be?

An anonymous reader writes "With the Apple WWDC looming on Monday, the internet once again beats itself silly over what Steve Jobs has in store. At the most fanciful end of the scale, there's talk of the Apple iPhone, to which CNET says, 'keep on dreaming', and Gizmodo says, 'no visible evidence'. The only solid evidence of an iPhone, beyond the endless mocked-up images, is the discovery of hidden phone-related code in a recent iPod updater. Macrumors has some info on what the keynote may contain -- and there's no mention of an iPhone. So, as the rumor mill continues to grind over the weekend, let the predictions begin. Is there an Apple iPhone, or is there not?"

    Not on *MY* Laura Ashley designer coffee table in my swank penthouse Thames-side London apartment there isn't!!!

    Well, maybe if they make it the same shade of off-white as my David Hockney sculpture and make the little Apple logo a bit more silver, I might think about it...

    ... I would randomy put in things like 'phone related code'. Imagine the fun of sitting back and seeing what rumors would start.

    My phone plays music, and it's not even DRM protected:

    Dial:

    6,5,4,5,6,6,6
    5,5,5...6,6,6
    6,5,4,5,6,6,6,6,5,5,6,5,4

    :P

    Those new fangled things??

    I prefer the type of phone that you crank in order to get the operators attention, and then say "Maybel, connect me to my mother."
