Apple’s upcoming Worldwide Developers Conference has people daydreaming about an unlikely iPhone launch, but that doesn’t stop the designers out there from cooking up some fresh concepts of a next generation smartphone, pulling on Apple’s iMac legacy for inspiration. There isn’t much more to the concept than shiny colours, but let’s face it, that’s enough to sell the next iPhone. I think a comment on Silicon Alley Insider put it best: “Admit it, how many times have you picked up someone else’s iPhone accidently. I, for one, would welcome our new chromatic iPhone overlords.”

    what would be even better is if they make it easily removable so you can change colors anytime :) i’m sure the smart people at apple could come up with a way to do that.
