5 More Things Apple's iPhone 4G May Bring In 2010

With only a few weeks left before 2010 kicks in, we're rounding up the latest things we expect to find out in the iPhone 4G (as in fourth generation).

You might want to read our previous article (5 Things the iPhone 4G Will Bring In 2010) which provides with the initial five features we expect the next iPhone to have.

Apple should bring multi-tasking with the forthcoming iPhone iteration. Although most of its users have already get used to the idea of doing one thing at a time, it would make sense for the iPhone to adopt it simply because Apple is lagging behind the competition in this particular respect. It has nothing to do with the phone's hardware, more with a limitation of the OS.

Another significant drawback of using the iPhone is the lack of Flash. Apple could overnight decide to support Flash and Adobe has already developed Flash-based tools for the iPhone. All the competition is already running Flash without hiccups, why can't Apple do the same?

Amongst the raft of suggestions brought to our attention by our readers is Face Up/Face Down recognition which could rely on the iPhone's built in accelerometer (and compass in 3GS). In a nutshell, the phone would adopt different schemes when laid down on a flat surface (e.g. on a table during a meeting) or when held up during when talking.
