iPhone junkies may have to start saving for another iteration of the Apple handheld as early as now. Rumor has it that the 4th generation iPhone will ship sometime in the second half of next year.

DigiTimes reports that according to their sources, OmniVision has secured a deal to deliver 5-megapixel cameras for the next iPhone, rumored to be released in the latter half of 2010. That's a nice bump up from the 3.2-megapixel cameras in the 3GS, which is also from OmniVision.

Earlier in the year there was some talk about a CDMA chip-carrying Verizon iPhone from Apple. Maybe this is it? Hopefully we'll hear more during Apple's yearly Worldwide Developers Conference, which expected to be held in June.

Would a Verizon iPhone be enough reason for you to get one?

# Maybe — chargin_teh_lazorz 2009-12-27 15:12

I get lost signals at least once everyday.

The hell with verizon, the 5MP camera is enough to sell me on an upgrade.

It's going to be Apple's "unlocked" iPhone and it's also going to have a larger chipset. It'll now be 32 and 64 GB.

Also, the iPod Touch is getting the jump, too, to 64 and 128 GB.

Please don't let it go to that crap network, they've managed to corrupt all kinds of other phones, don't let them destroy the iPhone too.

If you have Verizon why get an iPhone when you can get a Droid for $200 and it already has a 5 megapixel camera. 32GB iPhone is going to cost like $400 or $300.

My Co-worker has a droid and he can't even open attachments from email. That's a pretty big deal if you actually use your phone for work. Android OS simply needs to mature a bit.
