These leaked images provided by MacRumors may actually be the interface for a video recorder on the upcoming iPhone firmware 3.0 update. The iPhone’s camera is definitely capable of video recording as there are a variety of jailbroken iPhone apps provide the function. Those who have used the iPhone firmware 3.0 beta however express doubt as the function is not available in that verison. From the picture, we can tell that you would be able to toggle between video and photo mode and the shiny colorful button on the bottom left is actually a digital compass. You can expect firmware 3.0 to be released around summer time along with a new iPhone.
