Possible 3G iPhone in Late May; New Device at WWDC08 in June?

It is being rumored that the 3G iPhone may be announced later in May, leaving Apple to announce something completely new at their WWDC08 presentation.

It is being said that Apple would instead announce a brand new portable device at WWDC. No other details of what this device might be, but there have been rumors that Apple was developing a mini-tablet multi-touch device for launch in 2008. This PDA-like device would reportedly have a higher screen resolution (720×480) and be about 1.5x the size of the existing iPhone.

Repubblica.it first reported (in April) that they expected the Italian 3G iPhone launch “in the next few weeks”, suggesting a May launch. While Telecom Italia and Vodofone did announce their intentions to supply the iPhone in Italy, no formal announcement had been made from Apple.

Believe the rumor if you want, but don’t get your panties all up in a bunch if it does turn out to be false. I’m sure we’ll know within the next few days.

Like usual, we’ll keep you informed.
