I highly doubt there will be a larger screen. They won't force developers to code for another screen resolution and they won't want to lose the retina.
I agree with you. I think what people are thinking as a 'larger' screen is really Apple shrinking the phone around the current screen. Apple is crazy about thin and small and I'm sure they want the iPhone to be more like the iTouch if possible.

I'm guessing the screen resulation will stay the same, just put on a larger screen.
But, this creates a smaller DPI and kind of ruins the retina display.
The current resolution is 326 PPI. I would imagine as long as they stay above 300 they will be kosher.

That or they move more towards the resolution independency thats been around since Tiger.
Think scaleable vector graphics vs pixel. But we'll see.
There would have been signs of that in the iOS 5 SDK betas, if it were going to happen.
