+1 I also never click the trackpad.....I hate the clicking noise and it takes too long, much easier to tap.

If it is real, a nice upgrade in the 128GB. Im not sure about the capacitive home button, I've gotten really use to the physical button on my iPhone.
This could be the death of the Classic if this is real. Honestly I'd rather that the classic die and a larger screen device replace it. Something in the 5" range hopefully with even more flash storage.

I always question the sanity of people who claim to question other peoples sanity of ridiculous things.

Have you ever gone to move your finger across the trackpad and find that it registered it as a tap instead? Drives me nuts.
Seems a bit early to have a finished iPT 5 hanging around. It's not on market for 6 months.
Thanks for that explanation. I was curious about the term and how it was used.

The button for the MacBook trackpad is on the bottom. Most of the trackpad clicks, but not the top.
You all keep saying "they'll never do home button as capacitive because you could accidently rub it and tear you out of your movie/browsing/app/etc".
What if it responded to the accelerometer as well? The latest gem is in Garageband which can register a soft touch to hard tap for instruments through the accelerometer. Honestly I wouldn't mind have a home button that was gesture responsive too. Start with your thumb on the home button, swipe up, right or left for functionality. Or perhaps the home button only responds when you swipe onto it.

High quality images would make it too easy see that it's all fake/mockup/... ... guess that's also the reason for the ugly scratched plastic cover - if the thing would be real he/she would have taken it off for a better picture.
Macrumors: please move back to page2 or better page99 ... it's too obvious of a fake. I rather see the Wozniak comment on page1 since this has some real content.
My two guesses:
1. If it's fake, the filth,lack of lighting, and bluriness could hide photoshopping
2. If it's real, they could be in a hurry since they aren't supposed to be taking pictures of it.
I have a feeling this might be fake, but not far from the real deal. I'm not sure about having the capacative button, since it might be "pressed" easily accidentally. I'm sure if they use that there will be some preventative measures against this. We shall see.
FAKE!
You can see where they have retouched the Home button.
First shot especially changes colour as it gets near the white square and there is a definite difference in texture in a circular shape around the home square in the second shot.
Might happen on the final release but this is not a picture of it and just someone after a pathetic 5mins of fame.

This has never happened me, and I never click on the trackpad. In fact, among the first things that I always set in a new Mac install are to set the tap as a click and other things like enabling full path display in Finder.
Why do you question the sanity of people who do things differently compared to you?

looks fake, you would think if they did get their paws on the new touch they would have you know at least focused the camera... just a thought
I'm guessing it's just a prototype of some sort. We know that Apple tests out many different variations of hardware.
I'm with others in thinking that it would be inconvenient to have a capacitive home button for when it is accidentally pressed. My guess is that Apple knows this and has somehow figured out a solution, if this is indeed the direction they are going.

That has never happened to me, or anyone, that is intentionally using Tap to Click.
That does happen to people who live with buttons, who aren't expecting it, and for some reason tend to mash their trackpad with giant gorilla hands.
People I know that use click instead of tap have broken the trackpads on white macbooks after a few years of use.
