Apple smart phone tomorrow?

The New York Times' John Markoff provides his take on what Apple could announce tomorrow during MacWorld SF 2007 opening keynote. According to the prestigious newspaper, Apple's mobile phone will include features usually found on a computer.

So what we can expect tomorrow from Apple is a kind of smart-phone similar to those high-end Nokia models such as the N91. It should sport a touch screen and a ceramic case, as stated in Markoff's report.

Some analysts have been predicting during 2006 that Apple would announce two models of Apple phones. An consumer oriented mobile phone with iPod's features and a smart-phone with similar description to that found on the New York Times' article.

As for the branding, MacScoop revealed reports claiming that Apple wouldn't use the the "i" prefix on the definitive branding of its mobile phone and its living-room appliance, currently named "iTV".
