I think I speak for many when I say THANK YOU for the entertainment value of this thread. You hear the name Al Gore, or get a politician involved, and you assume the bowl of popcorn should be removed from the microwave, and then it turns out to be hilarious reading. 
Or maybe it's plural, because there will be different color options (white/black) and different storage options (16GB/32GB/64GB)...?Umm, maybe it is plural since Apple plans to sell millions and not just one!
People like this often become confused when they discover that things (or companies) they enjoy (think Family Guy, Simpsons, etc) are run in manners they do not approve of on (largely unexamined) principle(s) (in this case, run largely liberal and democratic individuals).
But don't worry.... he'll make it all work out in his head. Give him time. Justi....fication is swift.
Hard to waste tax-payer money, when that he no longer works for tax payers. Or maybe you're just ignorant.
Since this has become a political discussion
Steve Jobs has no political affiliation.
Jonny Ive's is British and thus doesn't vote.
Not sure about Cook.
Now. On Topic.
I'm quit sure Al Gore would know if a new iPhone was coming out.
Being on the board of directors isn't quite the same thing as working for them.
And to think that many people actually still believe in this Climate Change hoax by Al Gore and the fake "green movement", shows how ridiculous this human race is. Maybe we don´t really deserve to survive, ´cause people are so stupid and so easily swayed by mainstream propaganda.
Glad there´s also some sane people left and many awakening...

Please someone, find the quote from Al Gore stating he invented the Internet.
It doesn't exist, because he never said it.
Al is pretty well tapped-in but this is nothing we don't already know. The amusing part was the whining from Sprint which offered "iPhone killers" three years running with massive ad campaigns until they realized they were getting their backsides kicked. I left Sprint for the very first iPhone the first day it was available - a warm June night, standing in front of the ATT store in San Diego's Mission Valley. I left for a superior product but also because my Sprint phone had to have its services reset each time I crossed a state line and after the horrific merger, customer service went to zero. A week after the iPhone launched, they dumped 30k customers who had the nerve to call customer service repeatedly to demand the services they were paying for. I don't know what Sprint is doing to make Apple feel secure in having them as a partner but this has to be the biggest turn around in telco history (in addition to dropping the whole "we hate iPhone" thing.)
We are all dead and don't even know it yet. To quote N. Young;
I'm a vampire baby
suck'n blood right out the earth
I'm a vampire baby
sell you 20 dollars worth.
doesnt change the fact that he did, though! Nah, but on a serious note, us internet-dwellers have much to thank Gore for.
Why is this fool on the front page? Is he not one of the least credible politicians ever invented (by Al Gore)? I think MacRumors' credibility just plummeted...
EDIT: I can't believe people actually vote this down! Do people actually think his word has any meaning? Do you think he really created the internet or something?

next time you link a movie, watch it first. saves you some embarrassment. The only thing you really need to add to his statement is "...as we know it". (or rather, "as [americans] know it"... im not an american, so...). If you dont trust me, perhaps check statements from people involved in the creation of arpanet etc.
