The New iPhone You'll Probably Never/Maybe/Possibly See

Finally, to end this writer’s day on a bit of fun, here’s something you might have missed unless you’re an addict of any Mac news sites. Wired has gotten their hands on a 2006 patent Apple applied for, with the design plans for something that looks like a clamshell iPhone. It’s cool and all, but we really love these sorts of stories because it’s all just a huge bunch of excited conjecture. Without knowing the whole story behind why the patent was applied for, from actually wanting to design the thing or simply to safeguard themselves in case they one day wanted to give this sort of thing a try, but as more of a way to push competitors away from the idea, is likely known only to a select few.
