Does Apple have 3D iPhone in the works?  Apple has been awarded
a patent for a 3D stereoscopic display system fuelling rumour

its products, including the iPhone, iPad or Mac computers.
Alternatively, the company could be about to enter the 3DTV
business - an intriguing prospect.  The patent was first applied
for back in 2006, but has just been granted, and it is a step in
the right direction for Apple to bring about its own form of
autostereoscopic (glasses-less) 3D display technology:  "A need

patent. "Additionally, a need continues to exist for practical
autostereoscopic 3D displays that provide a true parallax
experience in both the vertical as well as the horizontal
movement directions."  However, Apple also
