Another analyst sees 3G iPhone coming to Europe
Plenty of people have been talking about Apple developing and releasing a 3G version of the iPhone, even though Steve Jobs seems more smitten with Wi-Fi than with 3G.
Forward Concepts' analyst Will Strauss believes that the WCDMA 3G iPhone will be announced at the same time as Apple tells us which European operators have secured its rights.
"We have ... confirmed that Infineon Technologies is producing UMTS baseband chips for at least two cellphone companies, and Infineon is also the only non-captive source for WCDMA/UMTS transceiver chips — and also the biggest producer of GSM/GPRS transceivers, with a third of the world market last year," he said.
Strauss believes an announcement could come from Apple this week, though we've heard that before.
