Rumor: Apple releasing matte black iPhone 3G [Update]

20090212newiphonetmo

Here we go. Again. The Mac Observer has a shot of a 16GB iPhone with a new model number, A1303, and what appears to be a matte black finish. Who really knows if this is true, but if that matte finish comes with a metal backing then I may have to bite. It sure looks legit. What do you think? Is this the new iPhone? I mean, it’s not like they’re going to completely overhaul the design, right?

Update: More images from Mac Rumors after the jump.
