Awesome…lets hope it actually is it !

So it appears to be Apple - whether the next iPhone will actually be identical or whether this is just a non-production prototype remains to be seen…
Im not convinced that the new iPhone will look like the device that has been found.
The design appears to deviate from the industrial design of the existing iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. I think there is a good chance that the hardware contained in the device may be close to the release model, however I think the actual device will vary in appearance from the pictures.
I don't think it would be the first time that Apple would release fake prototypes to put people off the trail of what they are actually working on.
I'm inclined to agree - although I'm not sure that a less rounded, blobby iPhone would be a bad thing really. Kinda like changing from the old fishingbowl iMacs to the new, less rounded ones… It's just a bit more grown up.
I expect we will see something that more closely resembles a small iPad. I think the main chassis will be a single piece of aluminium as per the iPad or Unibody MacBook Pros.
It seems a little far from the expected release date for finished products to be out in the wild. When the iPad was being tested, finished models were encased in frames to hide the finished design. This device is probably a hardware test sample and may not be an indication of the finished product.
Then again I could be completely wrong D
Either way - I won't be buying one, I don't want to be a slave to Apple (though, hypocrite as I am, I'm happy enough to be a slave to Google.)

…and recording music on my MacPro.
Quiet you!
