I recently had a technological Wizard of Oz moment where I was having a problem with a piece of video equipment.

A couple of months back Phil Libin (CEO of Evernote) did another public Q&A session on the Evernote blog.

It’ll be running the new Apple iPhone OS 4 for sure, but what will the fourth generation iPhone have in store in terms of hardware features?
