Dont know if this is 100% but its looking good, the images are from a Hong Kong Forum so i do think it could be the first images of the next generation iPhone.
The more i look into this the more I’m learning from the handful of [blurry] pictures that i have just found the real thing, the magnetic compass, autofocus camera, video recording capability, MMS capability, CPU log/activity, along with some other new features from OS 3.0 running on current iPhone 3G hardware…

The spy shots have landed over a week before the Apple is expected to reveal its 3rd generation iphone – at the upcoming WWDC event – and provide a first peek at two of the handsets new features. For starters, there’s a digital compass installed, which will give the handsets mapping functions a bit more accuracy and possibly paves the way for turn by turn guidance.
Furthermore, as we’ve learned from the Android metal detector app, the digital compass can also be put to more creative use for other functions and hopefully means even more interesting Apps to come from the iTunes App store.
The iPhone camera has been seen as one of the handset’s few weak spots. Apart being a paltry 2.0 megapixel affair in the iPhone 2G and 3G, it has suffered from a lack of proper camera features, such as auto-focus. If these leaked photos prove genuine, then Cupertino seems set to resolve that particular issue. Not only is there autofocus on board, but it looks like you’ll be able to drag a focus box around the screen to determine which bit of the scene you want the camera to focus on.
It’s not quite the manual focus some have been hoping for, but clearly it would be a significant step up from the current offering.
more to come as i find it
