The rumours surrounding the iPhone 5 have been rampant. Everyone from bloggers to iPhone owners are speculating about what iPhone5 will offer its customers.

Reports have been released by various electronics-focused websites and blogs that the apple iphone 5 will be completely redesigned. This is in direct contradiction to other reviews which suggest that the new phone will include upgrades but will remain the same in many important aspects. Individuals, however, espousing the total redesign theory, believe that the design of the iPhone Five will be substantially various then the iPhone 4 and previous iPhone handsets.

The new phone is rumored to run on the CDMA/GSM/UTMS chipset. This would support the two U.S. carriers which now sell the iPhone, Verizon and AT&T while making the phone compatible with other global carriers. Qualcomm would be responsible for the manufacture of the new chipset.

Another departure reportedly being made involves Apple CEO Steve Jobs. Reportedly, he will not be involved in the launch of the iPhone 5. Jobs has been ill and is no longer able, at least for now, to oversee the day-to-day function of the company. That job has been handed over to Tim Cook, the company’s COO. How this will affect the design and launch of the phone, everyone will have to wait and see.

Many people are even wondering whether or not this change associated with guard will be long term, considering Steve Job’s continuing health problems. How this might affect Apple’s business in the long term is something that many individuals are wondering.

Will Cook get the job permanently? Will Steve Jobs actually return and if not, what will happen to the company? Apple has apparently done enough in the last few years to make them a player in the electronics marketplace for a while. The iPhones have been the stuff of electronics tale. The iPad and also the iMac have been successful in their own right. Taken together, it would appear that Apple is ready to be a big hit for awhile. Jobs assisted Apple make a substantial turnaround and now the company is a real contender.

There has been a lot of speculation concerning the iPhone 5. Unfortunately, there have been few conclusive details given.
