This year, we’ve been treated to the Google Nexus One, HTC Supersonic, Nokia X6 (out today), Sony Ericsson Vivaz and X10, and a pair of Palms, to name just some of the highlights.

And it’s still only January!

I say this because today, the whole mobile phone and gadget industryies are battening down their hatches ready for the big one – the Apple Event of the Year, where Steve Jobs will be announcing not just that Apple tablet thing, but also (possibly) the iPhone version 4.

Consequently, there isn’t a peep to be heard from the rest of the mobile phone industry, as they know any new announcement now would be lost in a blizzard of hype in seconds!

It’s exciting stuff, though. Will the iPhone 4 herald a new chapter in the iPhone’s history, able to take on the new challenge threatened by Android? Or will it just be an incremental upgrade, with the Apple Tablet taking centre stage? Will Steve Jobs even mention the iPhone, for that matter (of course he will!)

We’ll know tomorrow at 6pm GMT. Stick with us, as we’ll be live-blogging the event again (albeit from across the pond!), focusing on the mobile news. We’ll also be tweeting all the important juicy bits, so follow us if you can’t make it to your PC in time.

After all this excitement, surely next month will be calmer (no wait, next month’s MWC 2010!!!)

Once more, Apple fanboys are out in force as the world awaits news of what could be the third generation of the Apple iPhone. The rumours come in advance of the Apple WWDC conference in San Francisco, during which Apple is expected to announce a newly-updated iPhone for the salivating masses.

The third generation iPhone is expected to have a compass, a 600MHz processor, “improved” camera to a still-puny 3.2 megapixels adn 32GB of storage – in other words, not exactly a quantum leap, and certainly not what you’d expect from a “next generation” device.

Still, all of this is just rumour at the moment, and these leaked pics haven’t even been confirmed as real, yet, so we’ll just have to wait until WWDC next week to see what exactly Apple has up its sleeve.

Until then, check out some more pictures of the third generation iPhone after the jump.

The iPhone 2 is due to be announced later today at the Apple WWDC Developer’s Conference. Of course, Apple haven’t officially announced that the iPhone 2 will be presented at the conference, but it’s an open secret that it will be on display, and given that there are no more stocks left of the original 8GB iPhone in either the US or the UK, Apple need to release it real soon if they’re to keep the momentum going for their famed Jesus Phone.

Quite what we have to look forward to isn’t yet known, but these leaked photos (or fakes? We’ll know later today) give us something of a taste for what we can expect.

More details of the Apple iPhone 2 after the jump.
