"Those of you who doubt that the pixels-per-inch resolution isn’t high enough, just wait until you see the type rendering on this summer’s new iPhones."
Gruber has a history of making very specific "predictions" which are actually leaks from his moles. Maybe he's gotten tired of beating around the bush.
On MacBreak Weekly he eluded to the fact that some high profile developers are presently working on apps for the next iPhone. I'm sure we'll see some demos tomorrow.
I wonder if some future politician isn't going to "elude" to something in order to get away with something else. (With an American public which is much less literate than past generations.)
Apple has to increase the pixel density. Android phones have sported 240 dpi displays since November (Motorola Droid).
Competitively, they need to increase the pixel density. I don't think Gruber has any firm sources, but just assumes a higher-resolution display is in the works.
You don't think Gruber has any firm sources? How do you think he makes all of his "predictions"? The vast majority is leaks. And I think when he goes to the extreme of saying the exact resolution (http://daringfireball.net/linked/2010/03/29/wsj), it's pretty safe to say that he has firm sources.

Hmm, well that's interesting.

He "predicted" the specific resolution here: http://daringfireball.net/linked/2010/03/29/wsj

"Alluded" (to mention in passing), not "eluded" (to evade).
