    Default iPhone 5 Rumour Roundup

    Some of these are obvious, some are ridiculous. Needless to say this is just a bit of fun, I would say there's a massive chance of a 64GB model and improved battery but hey ho.

    Dunno why he's only put no home button as 20% -I wouldn't be surprised if they do this - how many cheap clones have you lot seen that copied this?

    Just by changing that button to a different location would also make it immediately obvious that everyone with older phones has the old out of date version therefore must be a cheapskate who can't afford the latest apple greatness.

    I know Steve Jobs wants to have as few buttons as possible but I can't see how to get rid of the power and home buttons altogether as if the touchscreen was to not respond you couldn't get it into recovery or DFU mode. Maybe relocate them though as you say, I quite like the home button where it is though.

    Also I think I prefer a glass back to chrome/brushed metal and less curves.

    These are my guesses at chances of inclusion

    A5 cpu 100%

    4" screen 90%

    HDMI output 70%

    only power button 60%

    better camera 40%

    NFC 20%

    everything else 10% or worse.

    lol you think so? for the last few years the iphone has been out I've ranked highly for search terms which bring in serious traffic, as an example when the iphone 4 was released I was making 3k a month up until xmas without selling a single thing.

    Also started with 3 mobile affiliate sales now which is adding £125 per sale, so if the new iphone is called "iphone 5" I will be laughing.

    Affiliates sales it's easy money if you can get the traffic to your website, no stock to hold etc all profit, and really easy to setup.

    Getting to the point where I'm thinking of leaving my day job and making it a full time venture.

    4 inch screen - Pretty much definite. Its the most common rumour and I can see it happening. I assume with the increased screen size, the resolution would also increase to ensure the retina display quality.

    64GB storage - Everyone was expecting it with the iPhone 4. Both the iPod Touch and iPad have this storage size and with the increased file size of apps due to increased content and retina graphics the iPhone definitely needs a higher storage option.

    NFC - Doubt it. While its something that will be big in the future, its far too early to start incorporating it into the iPhone since there isn't much use for it currently.

    Better camera - Every iPhone has had an improved camera. 5MP on the iPhone 4. I reckon 8MP on the iPhone 5 with 1080p recording.

    RAM - Last years iPad had 256MB of RAM. Then the iPhone 4 had 512MB RAM. This years iPad 2 has 512MB ram so I could see 1GB RAM in the iPhone 5.

    A5 CPU - Definite. Dual core and I expect it to clock in at around 900MHZ/1GHZ.

    New design - I assume the design will change somewhat due to the antenna issues. I dont know if there will be a home button as that depends on wether the iPhone 5 will launch with iOS 5 preloaded or not. Im expecting an aluminium housing as the rear glass panel on the iPhone 4 was prone to cracking.

    Basically your selling for 3 mobile etc by advertising their offers on your website/blog
    people looking for say "iphone deals" "free iphone" will find your site via google and if they click through using your affiliate code which is provided by the network providers or you can use places like "buy.at" or "affiliate window" although these places take a cut of your earnings.

    If you use direct schemes such as the 3 mobile affiliate scheme you can earn as much as £125 per iphone sale.

    the hardest part is getting traffic to your website, as the mobile sales world is huge but I've managed to hammer my way onto the first page of google for some very competitive keywords.

    If you want to look to the future freeipad6.com is available - 3,4&5 have already been bought!

    Out of interest what keywords are you focussing on, it's one hell of a competative sector so kudos deserved for getting to page 1
