Don't you think it'd be appropriate to enclose the word in quotation marks in order to avoid such confusion?

Sorry..But this kind of stuff comes out all the time leading up to a new iPhone.
There will be more candy trust me.
CANDY!!!!
Nope.
Seriously ? Have you read the titles on these iPhone threads ?
They're a laugh a minute !!
Nothing personal Geckotek.
No, he own Chronicwire (that most-likely going to love leaking Apple's rumor), also developer of greenpois0n.
Didn't know if he's Apple intern, but seems not.
The funny part about the whole thing is Phil read the messages

Comex is apple's new intern

This doesn't prove anything, but the Model number printed A1387 does roughly fall in line with the incremental increase in model numbers from previous yearly updates: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3939
That said, if we are stil to believe the WSJ article from a while back, then that phone was destined for China all along...
I don't know if I buy that Apple would sell an iPhone 5 only to the US and a spec bumped iPhone 4s to China, but I suppose it may be helpful from a supply chain stance in that Apple would be able to keep up with demand for China which will by far outpace US demand (since the 4s uses mostly the same parts as the 4, there will be no delay in the supply chain)
Just my 2cents

Guys, I've been looking at his Twitter feed, and I'm starting to believe this Chronic guy. He seems to have (in some miraculous way) acquired SJ's and Phil Schiller's iMessage ID's (or just their phone numbers).
I'm still holding off any judgement about the purported picture of iPhone 4S label... That, I will have to see on Oct 4th.

Somebody tweet at this guy Chronic and ask him to take another picture of it. If it's real and in his possession, he could just take another picture at a different angle or something.
Interesting. These are the types of threads I enjoy reading to keep my mind off the wait. I wonder how he could've gotten a hold of the box.
I agree. Maybe if enough of us ask then he'll do it. That would give us somewhat more concrete evidence.

Check my OP. Seems Chronic may not have been the source of the pic, he just iMessaged it to Phil.
On another note, why do ppl vote down a post that is just the passing on of someone else's posted info? I posted no opinion and made no claims of my own. And i don't start tons of crap speculative threads. I don't get it.

Maybe Chronic could ask his source for an alternate angle picture to confirm its authenticity? I'm not even sure how he got it and whether it would be possible, but it would be cool.
Here's some delicious candy kids :

I'm not saying the message to Schiller is real, but given that iMessage contacts can use email addresses (just like FaceTime. Think iPod Touch) means that you should be able to send anyone a message if you know their email address.
Shouldnt be too hard to do assuming these guys are using their typical Apple addresses.

I think you missed the point of that article. It was for the Project Spartan, the HTML5 version of FB. Any iOS integration was only briefly mentioned....along with Android integration. And based on recent news, I bet we won't see much. It'll be mostly Twitter integration in iOS.
I agree.
I am really excited about the Twitter integration, but I will be disappointed if Apple decides to integrate Facebook into iOS.
I don't know whether that pic is real or fake, but I really have a hard time believing it's really called the 4S. If the rumors about the specs are true, then naming it 4S seals its fate as nothing more than an incremental upgrade. At least call it the 5 so that the non-techy will think it's something completely brand new, redesign or not.
Lol...the amazing thing about this is the fact that someone actually smokes American Spirit.
i have the opposite view, i'm disappointed that there's twitter integration and not Facebook, as i have like 1% of people i know on Twitter and everyone i know is on Facebook and actively uses it.
I'd rather they'd done both to please all.
