Rumors are again spreading about a forthcoming iPhone. After predicting it for years, once it will come true for sure :)
So the current rumor announces that Foxconn will manufacture the iPhone (same contractor in charge of the popular iPod and the cursed Airport Express). This would imply that Apple will ask a contractor to take care of iPhone production while Cupertino could have collaborated with well established mobile phone manufacturers such a Nokia or LG (not really sure that Apple wants to collaborate with Sony-Ericsson on this project). We think that such move would be risky as mobile phone technologies require skilled R&D and manufacturing teams.
