Kevin Rose (the founder of Digg) has a lot to say about the iPhone lately. After his recent comments on how big the SDK is going to be, he now also has some predictions (based on un-named sources) about the next iPhone model.
In a Diggnation broadcast, Rose first talks about a 3G iPhone coming ‘in a few months’ – not a big reach there, since we all know a 3G model is coming sometime this year (at least according to AT&T). Rose’s big prediction is that the iPhone V2 will have a front -facing camera to allow video chat.
That one seems unlikely to me, as that would seem to go dead against any push into the enterprise market. We’re continually told – at least in the US – that AT&T and others remove front-facing cameras due to corporate pressure to do so – although it’s possible there would be two models available, with the extra camera removed / disabled on the corporate version.
Just to keep Rose’s future iPhone projections in context, 9to5Mac has a brief rundown of his less-than-successful efforts up to now – check that out HERE and let us know what you reckon of this latest bold prediction. Oh, and check out how bitter his colleague sounds about not getting 3G on his original ‘early adopter’ iPhone
