We’re mere hours away from the introduction of the next iPhone. Whether or or not it goes by “iPhone 5” there’s been a rash of leaked hardware photos (assuming they’re legit, as last year’s rumored wedge design never made it to market) and, hidden within our bounty, is a new dock connector. Many appear fixated on faster data transfer speeds, given the possible internal “lightning” codename. Yet I never tether my phone to a computer and, as the owner of an iPad 3, I sure hope this foreshadows faster charging technologies. Related, given Motorola’s RAZR MAXX battery life success, I’m hopeful the miniaturization of the dock connector alludes to additional part shrinkage… making way for a larger iPhone battery with, presumably, additional power saving techniques attached. Dan Frommer, a reluctant Mophie owner, pines for similar.
What’s on your iPhone 5 wishlist?
