We should turn off all devices, tv's, internet, newspapers, magazines etc 3-6 months before the next iPhone is out.
I cannot take these leaks any more, I want to be wowed and surprised with the keynote like back in the day with Steve.
Not like they would ever lose a whole brand new iPhone before at a bar and everything about the next new iPhone would be revealed and device be taken apart before it's even announced.
I miss those days:D


but, how can you test the beta?
 
I miss the days of Steve where things would actually be a surprise, I feel like this ruins the fun and you already know everything that is coming.
Steve jobs was head of apple when the iPhone 4 prototype phone(basically exactly what we got that year) was left at a bar.
How could that not be the biggest leak of all?
all this nonsense about Steve wouldn't let this or that happen but lots of things did get leaked when he was alive. People just tend to forgot or just live in the now? There was Leakes every year he was running this whole thing.
Did you not get a free bumper case for the dropped bars because of the bad design of the iPhone 4?

I’m feel disappointed for the Apple employees who worked on this phone. They’re the ones who would’ve wanted to show off their work for the first time.

That being said, we the public seek these things, we have ourselves to blame if we get disappointed reading them.

It's not like you HAVE to browse rumor sites every single day. For example, everything on Tuesday will be a surprise for my SO.
