Apple iPhone 3G could come by June this year

Apple has aims to sell 10 million iPhones by the end of the year. For this, the company needs to introduce newer models to attract more customers who are not satisfied by their lone offering at this moment.

Market analysts are reporting that the company could bring a 3G edition of the iPhone by June this year.

This device is likely to be powered by a chip provided by Infineon Technologies. The current generation iPhone is capable of supporting the 2.5G network known as EDGE.

UBS analyst, Ben Reitzes added in his report: “We believe new features could help address issues that are limiting iPhone penetration in the enterprise.”

Another analyst Kathryn Huberty said: “We’d point to a 34 per cent year-on-year increase in R&D and 170 per cent year-on-year increase in Steve Jobs’ airplane expense in the December quarter as signs Apple is preparing for meaningful product launches.”
