If there’s one thing worth grumbling about with the iPhone, it’s the 8GB capacity – particularly as the iPod Touch has double that. However, industry analysts are predicting that the problem may be solved at the Macworld Expo in January, with a new 16GB iPhone.
What’s more, Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster reckons the price point may stay the same, which would be a bit frustrating for anyone who bought the 8GB model just before Christmas. What analysts don’t expect at Macworld is the long-rumoured 3G iPhone, which is expected to be launched later in 2008 rather than at the start of the year.
Of course, Apple boss Steve Jobs does love to keep people guessing, so there’s no guarantee that Apple won’t spring a completely different iPhone-related surprise at Macworld. Downloadable games on iTunes? A GPS accessory? A native Facebook application? Watch this space…
