Apple reportedly prepping 4.8-inch iPhone for June debut

@Jon It's an interesting point. I think we're getting back to the point Steve Jobs made when he rejected the idea of a video iPod - no one wants to watch movies on that tiny screen. Oh, people thought they did. But they didn't. That's why when the touch came out, customers dropped the scrollwheel iPod like a small pox blanket.

With the iPod touch and the iPhone, Apple is stuck between the proper physical size of a phone (which the iPhone 4 was) and the proper physical size of a portable video player (arguably, where the iPad mini is). I think the obviously resolution to the problem is an iPad mini with a bluetooth headset. But Apple will need to do something special so they can sell it as something new and interesting. It's just not Apple's style to say "Here's the iPad mini you know and love, we threw in a cellular chip and a bluetooth headset, now go write glowing reviews, slaves!"
