Rumor: Pink iPhones on the Way?

The probability of a new iPhone dropping into our grubby little hands is about 99.99% right now. Phil said it would happen, and Phil would never lie to us. Would you Phil? Yeah, he wouldn't.
We got information from a Taiwanese source who is friends with an OEM supplier for the iPhone. Our source tells us that Apple is planning on releasing a pink version of their next generation iPhone. This is based on information he was given by his OEM producing friend.
Whether the new pink iPhone will be part of a larger colorification of the mobile phone isn't clear. Apple currently sells a (RED) version of its iPod nano. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the nano are donated to help eliminate AIDS in Africa. A pink iPhone could be Apple's foray into Breast Cancer awareness.
Or they just want to all those insane Hello Kitty fans to buy iPhones. Whatever the reason, until Phil, Tim, or possibly Jobs himself, pulls a pink iPhone out of their pocket, we'll continue to debate the two color choices available for purchase.
