Because people can post if they want? Just because you say you are finished with the thread, doesn't mean people have to stop posting.
I'm getting a bit tired of hearing this kind of nonsense. People need to think things through logically before they spew this stuff. Why on earth would Jobs deliberately lie about the release date of the white iPhone knowing that a week later it was going to be announced that it was delayed for months? What possible reason could he have for doing that? It would obviously make him and Apple look foolish and give the press fodder for more Apple bashing.
The only reasonable explanation is that something happened after the press conference that changed things. Why are some people always looking for conspiracy theories and imputing bad motives to everything Apple and Jobs say and do? "Steve Jobs insisted that they use the antennae design even tough he knew it was faulty because he wanted it to look cool. After all, Apple always chooses form over function" "they deliberately chose a faulty antennae design so they could sell bumpers" yada, yada, yada
Learn to think things though logically and you'll save yourself a lot of embarrassment and the rest of us a lot of pain.
I'm no English professor, but it looks OK to me. Perhaps you can enlighten us on the grammatical/punctuation errors you see?

Just read your last sentence...I am not embarrased...and i moved on. I am not the one actualy keeping this thread alive but you do. You should move on as well instead of loosing your time...this is what i never got from people willing to give their word and at the end say it is a pain and a lost of time...funny, no? move one man...
Are you kidding? Jobs lies through his teeth all the time. This has been confirmed time and time again.
He even lied to/gypped Wozniak out of his fair share of the first Breakout arcade game.
No, that's why forums like this one exist. Apple has the right to control the content posted on their property. And, frankly, I'd have deleted your post, too. You're essentially telling someone to not buy their product based on something that is extremely unlikely.
People seem REALLY confused about this one, so I'll try again - Freedom of speech does not exist of any internet forum; especially one owned by a company.
OP,
You just violated their rules and posting guidelines. No biggie. They were nice enough to explain it to you.
Not really hard to understand. The apple forums are there for support primarily, so speculation, conjecture and guessing really serve no purpose there.
That is why places like MacRumors exist, so you can just make up stuff and post it. That is not really the mission of the official Apple Forums.
I still wonder why every time someone breaks the Apple forum rules they have to repost the whole thing here.
Edit: I will add since it seems the OP wishes this thread to go away, you started it, and you gave it a salacious title that included "conspiracy''. Just because you start a thread does not mean you own it or control it. If you didn't want it to keep going on you probably should have thought a bit more before posting it in the first place.

OK...thanks again...i think i got it...anyone else please? Come on, one more person to reiterate the same speech and expose his rocket science?
