Well there are two scenarios. One, it'll be an incremental update akin to the 3GS update. Or two, it'll be something really awesome as Apple will be responding to all the new Android and Microsoft offerings that are just over the horizon.

I'm personally hoping for scenario #2. If Apple delivers scenario #1, then I'm jumping ship to Android.

I can't see Apple doing a major overhaul to the iPhone. I think it's probably going to be scenario #1, It's possible we could see multiple carriers which would help boost sales.

Has it been 5 yrs since the iPhone came out? I'm guessing you won't see additional carriers (in the U.S anyways) until 5 years have passed since the first iPhone was released. I'm just guessing here, but I wouldn't be surprised if Apple was locked into a 5 yr deal with AT&T. I could be wrong. I hope I am. I would love to see the iPhone open up to at least Sprint, T-Mobile, and Verizon.

iPhone came out summer 2007, which means assuming the five year deal is true, that AT&T will retain exclusivity through summer 2012.

Google is your friend. Try it sometime.

The Nexus One was just made available for AT&T. I am so tempted to buy it, but the price tag and wanting to know what Apple has coming is keeping me from pulling the trigger.
