New Buzz Builds around Next-Gen iPhone, iPod Touch

| No Comments

Apple's next iPhone and iPod Touch may both include an updated chip called the Broadcom BCM4329, the sharp eyes over at AppleInsider assert.

The chip would add support for 802.11n wireless capabilities, compared with the current models' slower 802.11b/g support. That change could lead to better power management, faster and more reliable Wi-Fi connections, and even the ability to transmit over FM radio signals.

In theory, such a system could let you not only listen to the radio but also send your own signal, making it possible to play tunes on your car stereo without an expensive adaptor.
