MacRumors has been keeping tabs on Chinese forum Weiphone, and says -- in addition to the screen shot above -- the following specs have been leaked about the next generation iPhone, widely believed to be announced in just under a month at Apple's annual World Wide Developers Conference (WWDC):

  • Model number MB717LL
  • 600MHz CPU Speed (up from 400MHz)
  • 256MB RAM (up from 128MB)
  • Digital Compass and FM
  • 3.2 megapixel camera with auto focus
  • 32GB size
  • No major changes in battery, screen and external casing.

Do we believe it? Some parts seem in line with other rumors we've been hearing, but who knows? (Other than Steve Jobs and his closest minions, of course). No doubt, we'll be seeing more and more of these as WWDC approaches. So, for our purposes, we'll just ask if this resembles the next gen iPhone you want?
