The 3G iPhone will be announced June 9, the day when Apple CEO Steve Jobs will almost certainly deliver the keynote at the 2008 Worldwide Developers Conference, according to analysts.
The 3G iPhone will be the “first of an impressive wave of new products” from Apple, Citi analysts Richard Gardner and Yeechang Lee told clients. They also expect an updated Mac laptop and iPod lines, reports PC World.
In addition to a 3G iPhone release in early June, the 2.5G model could have a “minor casing change” and a price drop to between US$299 and $349, compared to the current $399, Shaw Wu, an analyst with American Technology Research, in a research note to clients. Those predictions are consistent with a February prediction Gardner made that 3G iPhones will be announced by midyear, notes PC World.
The 2008 Apple Worldwide Developer Conference will be held June 9-13 at the Moscone West in San Francisco, California. It will feature three tracks: iPhone, Mac and IT. Developers can take advantage of early registration pricing now. Pricing info can be found here.
