A source tells us that "someone who designed part of the iPhone UI, who generally has access to new hardware locked down in a room to play with, " told him that the new iPhone will run on faster 3G networks, as expected; feature new, improved speakers on the bottom; and an improved camera. It will hit stores June 12. Our source warns us: "The person has mixed details before." Our guy puts his friend's trustworthiness at an 8 out of 10.
To us, the details seem obvious. New Macs always have better speakers and better cameras, don't they? But perhaps the rumor's very obviousness lends it more credibility. You have exactly 37 days to discuss, oooh and ahhh about it. (Photo by Andrew*)

And thus begins another silly summer season of iPhone rumors.
New Macs don't always have better speakers. The MacBook Air doesn't even have stereo speakers. Heck, the iPod Touch doesn't have speakers at all!

I doubt someone who knew anything would allow themself to be identified that specifically (at least if they want to continue working on the iPhone UI).
And why June 12th instead of waiting til it has been out for one year?
I also wonder why no FCC docs have come out yet.
@kfury: Best speakers I had were on a Powerbook G3. Its successors have never come close.
@nojo: Which PowerBook G3? I especially enjoyed the Ür-G3; the PowerBook G3 in the PowerBook 3400 case. It had great sound, at the expense of that strange hump-backed display.
