Today's Top Headlines in a leading national newspaper from India reports on the iphone girl posting in macrumors forum, with special reference to 4 macrumors members.

"identified as only “markm49uk” from England"
"identified as ‘PredatoryWasp86’ "
"another reader, ‘BrownManUPS,’"
"‘sibruk’ wrote"

Congrats, folks! An appx average of billion readers will now know of macrumors.

Ha ha! Good find.
I hope markm49ukhas been suitably reimbursed for 'his' photos being published in a national newspaper.

It's not the first time.

One member who I used to speak to on AIM was quoted by the Wall Street Journal I believe.

Arn's been on TV too...

Today's Top Headlines in a leading national newspaper from India reports on the iphone girl posting in macrumors forum, with special reference to 4 macrumors members.I've seen other places quote members. I think a news source or something quoted two MacRumors members in response to the 802.11n Enabler fee or something like that.
