The iPhone 4 will have a 3.5 inch display with 640 X 960 pixel resolution, two cameras and a 5-megapixel camera with built-in LED flash.

With the launch of 3G services, telecom companies are betting big on smartphones. airtel and Aircel are offering their 3G (high speed internet access) services across various cities in the country.
