ANOTHER Lost/Stolen iPhone --- Hmmmm...
« on: May 13, 2010, 02:10 AM »
Yep. Things that make you go hmmmm... I posted a quick blurb on it with links to the original Vietnamese article and an Engadget one.

But another one leaked? Man... I dunno. You'd think that Apple would tighten up or something if it were really that important. Seems to me like they may have leaked it themselves. Dunno. Just speculation.

This is bad - I'm not supposed to be laughing hysterically (maniacally) at work...

After reading that article I was left confused as to whether the phone itself was a fake or just the part that it could supposedly run OS4 was false/fake.

In other words, the OS was photoshopped on, but is the hardware a fake? The article wasn't really clear about that.

Didn't we go through this (denial) it's-a-fake phase last time they lost something too...?

Maybe Apple "leaked" a fake on purpose this time to discredit the original story. :-\
