Here is a run down of all the iPhone rumors over the past few weeks. There are a couple rumors about a 4GB iPhone and having 4 models of the iPhone. I hope this becomes a reality. I thinks that the iPhone Market share would double in a less than a year if they did this. One other rumor is that the iPhone is going to have add Parental Controls for Apps. I hope they do this. It would allow Apple to lessen the restriction on the Apps that get submitted. I mean no more rejected apps because you can read the Kama Sutra. Now to the list of rumors.
