Rumor alert: next iPhone might be dual-core and a removable battery

Officials at KT, the exclusive provider of the iPhone in South Korea, have allegedly said Apple could debut a new iPhone with an OLED screen, video chat and a removable battery as soon as April.

The Korea Times claimed Tuesday that sources at KT said the new phone would have an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) screen, would feature video chat functionality, and a removable battery is "highly likely." The report also said the new iPhone would include dual-core processors, more powerful graphics capabilities, and a superior camera.

It's WAY Too soon to really think about new iPhones (other than in our dreams), but a dual-core iPhone with a removable battery and a snazzy new camera with flash would be beyond cool.

It might even entice me to jump ship from BlackBerry to iPhone instead of my current iPod touch / MiFi setup. I do love the BlackBerry's keyboard, though...
