He said that in reference to tablets running full desktop Windows.

Erm... no, he didn't.

Haven't got the opportunity to watch the clip right now, but was he not referring to current sub 10" tablets?

Yes, about a year or two before he passed on and Apple released the iPad Mini.

I wonder how apple will backtrack on the '4inch is perfect - anything bigger can't be used easily' and then claim they invented large phones or something

Because the tablet thing was exactly the same, but they chose wisely not to respond to Jobs' "rant" when people asked about it. They'll just do the same (wise) thing, as to ignore it.

Yet more (unconfirmed) leaks - 4.7" and 5.5" models:

Personally I think the back of the mockup looks terrible, almost like a cheap prototype although I suppose you'll never really see the back as everyone has cases for them.

These mockups are usually distributed to allow manufacturers to start setting things up for cases/docks, so that these can be available as soon as the phone is launched.
This means the dimensions will probably be spot on, but the material/design could still change.
I like the fact that the screen-to-bezel ratio looks a lot better on these phones than on the current iPhones.
I don't think the back looks too bad, I just dislike the colour. It'd look a lot better in some shade of dark grey, pref brushed like the HTC One:

They used to do it in June/July but the past four have all been launched in September so it could be that the 6 will be launched in September.... but nobody knows until they do it.

Good - a small one! I'm getting pig sick of the ever increasing size of phones, hence why I'm still on a 4S.

You do know that the new small ones larger than the 5s right?

If they've measured it in the usual way for these devices, i.e., diagonally, then it's the same size as a 4S. I live in hope!

That's the iPhone 5, 6 and 6+ (or whatever they will call them), all of which are bigger than the 4S.

The 5n are all the same width as the 4S but a little longer, I would think a 4S user would be happy with the 5 size.

D'oh! Yep, that's a 5 with the 6 mockups, not a 4!

I'm not, you'll be pleased to know, but I've more sense than the think that engineers measure things diagonally anyway. As it happens, the screens on devices are measured diagonally for the purpose of quoting 'screen size' on device specifications, that's a fact. Perhaps a little optimistic of me to hope that the whole device would be measured the same way.

Official release date announced then....

Apple will launch its next-generation iPhone 6 at an event on Tuesday, September 9, reports Re/code. The company has reportedly scheduled a big media event for that date and in the past, September has been a month reserved for the introduction of new iPhones.

Following the September 9 introduction, the iPhone 6 will likely be available to customers on a corresponding Friday roughly a week and a half later, possibly September 19.

I'm quite looking forward to it to be honest. My Ip5 is 2 years old next week and starting to do strange things...

I will not be holding out for the 5.5" that's for sure though.

Think I'll be getting the 4.7

I wonder what the price will be.

Ok, that's good news. I thought the Keynote was on September 9th but if that's the release date of the phone then even better. I got the 5 a week or so after it was released so my upgrade will be timed very well. 4.7 methinks. I don't see the point of huge phones.
