A new week: a new round of iPhone 5 rumours. The latest careless whispers suggest that Apple’s latest device might well have a curved glass display.
Digitimes, the daily newspaper for the electronic industry in Taiwan and Greater China, reports that Apple has purchased 200 to 300 glass cutting machines in order to produce the requisite quantity of glass screens for launch.
Industry sources have revealed that the machines are currently in storage at assembly plants, and will be brought online when yield rates for the new curved glass have improved.
Meanwhile, Reuters is reporting that Verizon CFO Fran Shammo - on discussing the company's ability to offer the phone at the same time as rival AT&T - has said that the new device will have a “world mode”, ensuring global coverage.
This follows Forbes’s recent suggestion that the device will be called iPhone 4S, which indicates more of an incremental upgrade, similar to the relatively minor spec bump from iPhone 3G to iPhone 3GS.
What would you like to see from the new iPhone? And is a curved screen enough for you to abandon your old model?
