Big sources are stating they expect the Apple phone to be arriving in early 2007.

With Christmas nearing hopes of receiving the Apple phone in stockings are starting to dwindle.  Thinksecret has sources telling us that the Phone should arrive sometime in early 2007.

So if the rumors are correct there will be no Apple phone for 2006. 

“Technology has said to be the culprit in slowing down the release dates,” said Thinksecret sources.

A ground up design was Apple’s plans for the cell phone but things have changed.  Because of the problems they encountered Apple Macintosh has gone with some parts already on the market.

Consumers need not worry about the end product says Macrumors members.  Besides, the iPod wasn’t strictly a ground up design and look what happened to that.

Could we see another iPod like success?  We can expect iPod like features and more such as a 3 megapixel camera.

Thinksecret says that Apple might make an announcement January of 06 at the Mac World Expo in San Fransisco.
