CEO Steve Jobs smiles at the end of the iPhone OS4 special event at Apple headquarters in Cupertino, California April 8, 2010. Credit: Reuters/Robert Galbraith SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Apple Inc's next-generation iPhone, which CEO Steve Jobs is widely expected to unveil on Monday, will have to really set new standards in multimedia content and function to wow Wall Street and consumers. Technology  |  Media Apple's challenge may be to dream up game-changing innovations, since the iPhone is already an unqualified blockbuster that is the company's main profit growth driver, and its share price hovers near record highs. The bid is made tougher with the early success of the iPad tablet computer, which many say has already created a new market. Competition from a host of well-received smartphones based on Google Inc's Android operating system is also growing, pressuring Apple to raise the bar even higher. The "iPhone 4.0 will keep them ahead of the game. Is it as easy as last year to stay ahead? No. I think Android has made huge progress," said Gartner analyst Carolina Milanesi. Only last year, Research in Motion Ltd was seen as Apple's top rival. While the company's Blackberry remains the smartphone of choice for many corporations, Apple has made strides in that market as security concerns addressed by the Blackberry have eased. More than 70 percent of Fortune 100 companies have deployed or piloted the iPhone, according to Apple. But the iPhone's prime target -- for now -- remains the consumer, in a market where it increasingly goes head-to-head with Android phones from vendors like HTC, Motorola Inc and Samsung Electronics. Longer-term, investors are squarely focused on the iPhone's spread into international markets including China, Apple's pricing strategy, and when the device will be available through another U.S. carrier besides AT&T. Jobs takes the stage at Apple's developers conference in San Francisco on Monday following a hectic public schedule of late, where Wall Street is expecting to get its first formal look at the fourth-generation iPhone. The phone will likely be faster, have more capacity, a better screen and battery life, and a front-facing camera -- all nice additions, but none of which move the competitive needle very much. "There will be some pretty cool things on stage with Steve, but at the end of the day we know the general functionality," said Broadpoint AmTech analyst Brian Marshall. Some features that iPhone users have long clamored for, such as multi-tasking, will also be added. GROWING COMPETITION The iPhone, introduced in 2007, arguably created the modern smartphone industry. The template pioneered by the iPhone -- a roughly 4-inch slab with a touchscreen interface offering quick access to thousands of applications -- has become the standard for Web-surfing handsets. But the market has since grown thick with competitors, particularly slick smartphones based on Android. "Android is the only real contender to the throne," said Rodman & Renshaw analyst Ashok Kumar. "Nokia's position continues to fade, RIM has yet to make traction on the consumer side, and Microsoft could end up being too little, too late." Nokia's Symbian mobile operating system is the global market leader and RIM's platform is No. 2, but both are losing market share, according to Gartner data. The iPhone's global share surged to more than 15 percent in the first quarter, making it No. 3. Android was No. 4 with close to 10 percent of the market, a huge increase from the previous year and gaining, Gartner data show. Milanesi said the iPhone has done well internationally, particularly in Europe, but still has plenty of room to grow in Asia, where competition is fierce and smartphone preferences can vary widely from market to market. The iPhone is available in around 90 countries and on more than 150 carriers. Apple sold a record 8.75 million iPhones in its latest quarter. That accounted for 40 percent of revenue, with margins estimated at roughly 60 percent. Many on Wall Street expect the iPhone to arrive at Verizon no later than 2011, and perhaps as early as this fall. Apple is not expected to announce a Verizon iPhone on Monday. AT&T has come under withering criticism from iPhone users over its network quality, although Jobs said this week he expects to see improvement this summer. AT&T said Wednesday it will stop offering an unlimited pricing plan for new subscribers to its mobile data services, which could help improve the speed of its network in some areas by cutting down on network-clogging downloads. Piper Jaffray analyst Christopher Larsen said the timing of that announcement, days before Apple's event, was no coincidence. It could help the carrier keep its exclusive iPhone deal for longer. How Apple chooses to price its newest iPhone, as well as the older models, will be closely watched, given Apple's enviable margin profile. The latest model iPhone, the 3GS, starts at $199 with an AT&T subsidy, with the older model 3G priced at $99. Many doubt there will be any surprise announcements on Monday, but with Apple one never knows. The rumors include a Web-based version of iTunes, and a new version of Apple TV. (Editing by Edwin Chan and Richard Chang) Technology Media Comments See All Comments (5)  |  Post Comment Jun 04, 2010 4:25am EDT I’m always amused at the level of arrogance by the “experts” of these sorts of blogs/sites. I love the way they speak for everyone. The headline of this article made me cringe at the sheer audacity of the author and editors thinking that they had the inside track to what Wallstreet and the Consumers were thinking. This kind of writing is as bad as checkbook journalism. What happened to honest reporting? This sensationalistic garbage is both a waste of space and my time! rcossebo Report As Abusive     Jun 04, 2010 7:06am EDT Lets get a few of the facts straightened out: 1. the iPhone device form factor has not changed in 3 years and will probably not change significantly this time. 2. the iPhone OS 4 will have updates, which have already been explained by Steve Jobs. There may be some undisclosed updates at the event on Monday, because Steve usually holds something back. 3. EXISTING iPhone users (& their devices) will be able to update to iPhone OS 4, simply by plugging their phone into iTunes (accepted that the first iPhone model is now probably too old (3 years) to receive the iPhone OS 4 update. 4. The ‘Competitive Needle’ as you put it will be moved by a combination of the new iPhone 4G device, the iPhone OS 4 update and the other ecosystem advances that I am sure Steve will announce at WWDC 2010. As I stated in 1. above, the iPhone form factor will probably not change, so having Android devices from whomever with 20 megapixel cameras will not shift normal users to Android phones. 5. Android is increasing its population dramatically in the USA only and primarily because iPhone is not on Verizon. Once Verizon gets the iPhone, Android is in uncharted territory, because it is battling against one standardised ecosystem, which includes the iPhone devices (any of them), the iPad, the standard iPhone OS 4 and a user base that just clamours after each update! lambrettamike Report As Abusive     Jun 04, 2010 8:28am EDT Android phones will eventually take over the market, including the die-hard apple fans. iPhone will eventually phase out unless Apple comes up with some remarkably different. Dahc Report As Abusive     Jun 04, 2010 11:00am EDT “Android phones will eventually take over the market, including the die-hard apple fans. iPhone will eventually phase out unless Apple comes up with some remarkably different.” Lookout, everyone! We have a seer on our hands! I think competition is a good thing- it encourages innovation. With the iPhone and Android competing, I’m excited for the things to come. DRMcKnight Report As Abusive     Jun 04, 2010 11:25am EDT Good to see yellow journalism, and pure speculation, have returned to the media. These were the same people questioning whether or not the iPad would do well. And I seem to remember it becoming a runaway hit; something to the order of 1 million sold in the first four weeks? thatsnewstome Report As Abusive       See All Comments (5)       Add a Comment *We welcome comments that advance the story directly or with relevant tangential information.
