Next-Gen iPhone Photos Leaked? Judge for Yourself

Fri, Feb 13th, 2009

Photos of what appears to be the back casing of an updated iPhone have surfaced. From what can deciphered from the photo this alleged new model iPhone may come in black, might be contoured and textured to give you a better grip, and it appears to have a matte finish. The supposed first shot of this new iPhone model, you see below, features just the bottom of the back casing and comes via the Apple sleuths at iPod Observer. The site claims it obtained images from an anonymous source in China. Not long after iPod Observer posted its image the site MacRumors came out with a few more that fit with iPod Observer's "leak."

I am tempted to treat these rumors as being a little more credible than usual. You may recall that iPod Observer called it when the iPhone switched from a satin nickel finish to a glossy black plastic back.

However, I have to say, "who the hell cares?" I mean really, what have we learned from these photos? Now we know that Apple may or may not release an updated iPhone this year, which isn't much of a shocker. We also know that if a new iPhone shows up that one of the models will be black. Yawn.
