It is "almost certain" that <A HREF="http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1895,2068343,00.asp?kc=EWNAVEMNL120606EOAD">Apple Computer will begin production</A> of its long-anticipated iPhone in January, and the company will unveil improvements to its iTV and the iPod at the same time, according to one Wall Street analyst. In his latest research paper to clients, Gene Munster, a senior analyst with Piper Jaffray, wrote that these three new offerings from Apple will make their debut at the Macworld Expo in San Francisco on Jan. 9. Since September, the rumors and speculation that the Cupertino, Calif., company has started work on a cell phone that will debut in 2007 has grown. Munster wrote on Sept. 11 that Apple would produce an iPhone within four to six months.
