I don't know who kickstarted the iPhone rumor mill today, but it's cranked and running at fever-pitch. The latest iPhone tidbit claims that a 3G model will ship by the end of this year. That's right, there could be a 3G iPhone in the U.S. market just in time for the holidays.According to CrunchGear, an insider claims that AT&T could have a 3G iPhone on the market before the end of Q4 2007:

An excited tipster dropped us a line today about AT&T's network roll-out and, interestingly enough, a 3G iPhone rumor. Clearly this is grain of salt territory, but he's saying that AT&T employees are being told that a 3G version of the iPhone is coming out soon - perhaps even as soon as Q4 2007 aka the Holidays. Popular opinion slated a 3G version for Q1 2008 or later.

What do you think? Is this rumor legit? Will there be a 3G iPhone by the holidays? Can AT&T have enough 3G deployed by that time?
