Apple planning big for the 3G iPhone


Apple is gearing up for the launch of the 3G iPhone this June. The company is also in talks with music label companies, just like Nokia is doing for its Comes with Music initiative. Apple is doing all this in order to expand the ringtones and music features that are currently available on the iPhone. Apple ia making sure that the iPhone 3G launch is a big one and the music lable deal should compliment it.

“They want a big launch in June,” said one label executive familiar with the discussions. That executive said that a deal may come after June 9, when Apple’s chief executive, Steven P. Jobs, speaks to the company’s developers conference, a logical date for the introduction of the next generation of iPhone. An Apple spokesman declined to comment on the company’s plans.

Apple will also be adding ringback tones to the new iPhone. So this time, 3G iPhone will look and work more like a phone and less like an iPod 😉
