Wouldn't you? People post pictures "this is me at the Apple Store, on an iMac", I'm sure we'll get "this is me on my iPhone" posts very quickly...
Some of this access was the 19 of the month, not just today.
Besides I do not believe that Apple stated that it was going to run Leopard or did they?
Makes sense that it is Tiger based.
Browser Window Size
I'd be curious if any of the weblogs recorded iPhone browser screen real estate, since it's obviously smaller than the iPhone screen.
I'd really like to know the two browser window sizes when it's vertical and horizontal so I can start developing web applets for it.

The access logs for http://appie.dk/macbookpro (spoof site) also contain quite a few visits from Apple IPs, some with a MacRumors forum thread as the referrer. Some of them use Leopard
(Safari 3.0). No iPhone visits there, though.Review http://developer.apple.com/internet/safari/uamatrix.html
The current WebKit nightly build says...
"Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en) AppleWebKit/522+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Safari/419.3"
From everything I've heard over the years, Apple employees are allowed to view rumor sites -- they just can't post anything on the forums.
Besides, the purpose of using the iPhones is product testing. In order to effectively test the phones, they have to visit websites that the majority of their customers will visit.
No, it was never explicitly stated that the iPhone will run Leopard. However, it was stated in the keynote that the iPhone uses Core Animation, which is a Leopard-only technology (as far as we know).
Haha, your so right, theyve got an iphone in their hands but they'll be damned if theyve been told when they're gonna be released and when they can have one for real.
What better way to get information that to visit MR.

Anyone find it odd that the second one is Windows NT 5.1 ??
Besides..A couple of Apple's best ideas came from Macrumors
It's just a missing line break. The NT text is the end of the previous log entry.

Most companies that care what their customers think browse forums.
While Apple could look at the Mac Mini thread, why should they? People saying one thing and do another is something entirely different. You have all these people asking for the Mac Mini to be saved, but yet when it comes to sales, it is disappointing. If they sold plenty of them, then it would stick around. I saw quite a few posts of people stating that when they have enough money saved, they would buy one. The Mini has been out for quite awhile. If it takes that long to save the money, then that is why it is being discontinued. The market that is buying it is small and at the extreme low-end and people are buying laptops or the iMac.
A few weeks ago, Stan Sigman gave an iPhone away. There have plenty of proto units being used for testing as well; both at Apple and AT&T.
Did you think that the phone would be released with no test units ever being used?
That is dependent on how the website wrote their html code. IE allows for errors which allows for programmers to write sloppy code. If people would code to W3C standards, sites would the same on any browser used.
Try MONTHS. It is not uncommon to test for 6 months; new OS, new hardware, etc. Why do you think Leopard is delayed? Leopard is delayed by about 5 months; care to guess when Apple started testing?
They could visit any forum powered by vBulletin software.
You don’t think they would have GSM equipment as they were developing it? A little hard to test it in the lab without it. You don’t want to use a carriers system. They wouldn’t have FCC certification yet and it could cause issues.
Some sources claim Apple TV is using a version of the Core Animation API, and yet Apple TV is running a version of Tiger.
It's got Wireless LAN, so if they use it from a hotspot on Apple Campus... well that's an Apple IP internal, right?
This simply means the iPhone is "real". We knew that. Further it is "in the wild" in the sense that it has been (barely) seen outside Apple security fences.
But not much.
