back of ipod
on anti static wrap
siting on faux wood
in front of an Apple Keyboard

found the wrap in an old box, took the photo, unfortunately back is scratched up badly,
luckily my desk is similar to the new wood floor photo,
quickly PS cloned out the 20gb, printed with save as pdf to remove PS info,
open in iPhoto, upload to MR.

All of 5minutes. But at least know we know what the back of the photo would look like, if it is scratched up like mine.

Anyone heard of Project oragami http://blog.seattlepi.nwsource.com/microsoft/ if Microsoft are doing this (read the article and look at the site) they release theirs on 2 of March! Apple must have a similar product coming on Tuesday, i mean its full on competition? what you reckon, mac in your pocket? my bets are on it, if they can have XP in your pocket they need to put OSX in mine!

Pocket Mac (MacPad Pro) 100% (might be wrong but man i wanna be right)

It's already been discussed a little in this thread. I suggest you go back several pages and read up.
 
They are ALL fakes and here's why...

Apple's mob squad lawyers would be all over every site that posted these pictures IF they indeed were real.

They've descended on sites in the past for simple information, let alone photos.

We would have heard about this in the mainstream media if they HAD fired up the lawyers. Have you heard anything? I didn't think so.

And before you say, "well, they haven't had time," it seems like they have pounced in mere HOURS in the past.

I'd love for these to be true, and who knows, maybe this ONE TIME, Apple hasn't sicked their legal eagles on everyone, but how likely is that?
 
How it will go down

Steve Jobs is a vengeful god.

As reprucussion for the leak of the video iPod (MacPod?) photo, he will decide not to announce it on Tuesday.

Instead he will unveil a new line of iPod socks and try to convince us that they are 'fun'.

And we will believe him!

:(

Why must you insist on tellings others "This has already been discussed so please don't talk about it anymore." As if your understanding of the issue is so vast and perfect that no one could ever add additional insight to the issue.. so they should simply refrain from wasting your time with posts.

For the record, its annoying... I suggest you knock it off.

I'm officially unsubscribing from the horrible thread.

Mmmm delicious point. I think what you think. One thing that could further lament this discourse? Well, I'm wondering if, if, Apple listed a job search and patents recently that relates to the touch screen technologies, why would this puppy be out of the kennel wagging its tail just a couple of moons later? :confused:

Are you serious? If people are too lazy to look through the thread and instead innondate us with questions that have been answered a hundred times we shouldn't tell them to RTFT?

Didn't they not patent some iPod interface until some months after release? If that's the case then they're actually ahead of schedual on this one. =) Just my $0.02.

I see both sides, but here's where I end up:

* We who followed the thread from the start "know the most," but don't have any special right to it. It's for all.

* Reading 30+ pages is an unreasonable expectation in that light. Even skimming--some will, most won't. (I don't read every page of a long thread if I join it late myself, and I doubt I'm the exception.)

* Therefore repetition is to be expected, or at least even if you disagree with the above, it's still going to happen unavoidably.

* Newcomers to MR should be welcomed.

* Repetition is annoying, but otherwise pretty harmless.

* Spending time reminding a person to read the thread won't remove what they already posted.

* And it won't be read by that many other people who don't read the thread, because they don't read the thread :)

* So reminding them is just turning one needless post into two, while also risking creating an unwelcoming tone.

* But I understand (and share) your frustration with repetition, and motivation for trying to end it even though that won't happen.

* Back on topic: does anyone think those markings on the brown tape are Chinese characters?

1. It's deffinately a B
2. Chinese says "this side" possible it's for a QC station to make things faster/less likely to get broken
3. Pic is VERY detailed (reflection, screen through label)
4. Deffinately some sort of ipod, not tablet or pda, although might have some pda functionality, (see second pic, it's held by 2 fingers so it's not a tablet)

My guess....A new TRUE video ipod with limited pda functionality....wireless/bluetooth capabilities would be amazing (connect bluetooth keyboard accessory for typing)

My hope....A new front row interface :)

no, i think this is one of thse forged iPods.
only china has now taken one step forward into forgery-ism...
the forgery of future products!!

gotta give 'em credits.
