This gives some additional credence to the rumors that Apple has been working with Intel to create an SOC with the modem built in. It would be a big step for Apple and opens up some additional board space on what is arguably one of the most complicated PCBs for a consumer product (if you have a dead iPhone laying around its amazing to have a look at the PCB).
