I'm holding off on a new iPhone to see what June holds for the next version. I've heard it's coming by then.

Heck, at that point why not wait a few more months for the iPad 4? It will be so much better than the 3....

Here's what I'm looking for in no particular order:

- Higher resolution display (2048x1536 would be killer, but I'll take anything over 1024x768)
- Front & rear facing cameras
- Availability on CDMA & GSM cell networks
- Faster processor
- Better graphics chip(s)
- More RAM

What do you want?

Just blog with pictures. No live video.

New design iPad 2 with new dual core A5 processor. 2x processor speed, 9x graphics.

33% thinner body. Actually thinner than the iPhone 4! And lighter.

New video camera.

Black or White with AT&T or Verizon connections.

Same 10 hour battery life. Impressive!

And all for the same price!
