(Fortune) -- Apple is gearing up for a big bump in sales of the next
generation iPhone, if new production plans are any guide.
The plans show the faster iPhone will be rolling off the assembly
line this summer. The initial order calls for 11 million iPhones to
be built this year, with that total split between the existing 2.5G
phone and the upgraded 3G phone, according to people familiar with
the plan.
Apple (AAPL, Fortune 500) appears to be targetting a June
introduction of the 3G version of the phone, roughly a year after the

the fall quarter.
Observers are split on how to interpret the plans however.
