I was wondering the same thing. Hopefully they will be updating it very soon. I still have my fingers crossed for Apple to release and start selling the new phone today.

OK, I'm gonna say someone has WAY too much time on their hands. If they didn't put so much time into making it look like a sneaked shot (like the black blurry border) I might have actually... well... not dismissed it immediately...

Although it would definitely seem right that Apple would release something like this to replace the mini...

I just have to break my silence now and say that my manager and I opened up our box tonight. Yes. Yes I know! But so would you!

We took photos as we did it for those interested, which I'm sure will be more than a few

Haha! Maybe, just maybe. However the iPhone also scrolls like butter, and nobody's trying to put that on toast are they?

By the way, if you like the unboxing, we'd really appreciate a Digg

We drooled over that all afternoon!

I bet there's a single card in the boxes saying... "Ha Ha made you look"

what's stopping stores from opening the box now? i highly doubt someone from apple will be coming within the nxt 2 hrs before the 10th. and if they have already come to 'check' the box....um hello? OPEN IT ALREADY!!!

although, in most cases, all apple stores would be closed right now and re-open at their usual times tomorrow morning, which is when they wud open their boxes. arghhh

...the London Regent Street Apple Store has received "a single box that is padlocked, and under orders to be put in a safe until Monday."...

Man, that's just cruelty to boxes, pure and simple. And bragging about it too!! Shame on them.

Someone's alerted the "Box Liberation Front", yes?

 

[mauriziocorso77]

i just noticed...my local apple sotre is already taking preorders of the 3g iphone here in australia....i dont know for how long tho, i just noticed it now. wow. (they only show the 1st gen iphone pic tho)

Here comes Gwyneth's head in a box.

 

[Exist2Inspire]

Went to the Regent Street store today to get my MacBook repaired (still under warranty so I get a new HD with Leopard free (I was still using Tiger), only downside is I have to wait a week.) and whilst the Genius was doing the paperwork I said, "So, the keynotes tonight, 3G iPhone?", and all he said was "Somethings going on downstairs". Meh.

 

[MagicWok]

... I said, "So, the keynotes tonight, 3G iPhone?", and all he said was "Somethings going on downstairs". Meh.

Or was he just happy thinking about the 3G iPhone?

 

[Antares]

Fascinating. I'm sure we'll find out what is in the boxes, pretty soon, as the keynote is going on right now...

 

[phalewhale]

So... it appears that carenstation87 was full of the brown stuff... lol

[natureboyuta]

so what was in the boxes? the new iphone apparently isn't available until july 11. are they supposed to hold on to those boxes until then, or is something else in those boxes?

Good Question...

my super secret contact tells me that the box itself is a replicator which can produce every future product as soon as it enters the mind of steve jobs.

[gallagb]

still no word what was in the box?

I saw a 3G display in the Apple Store last night (Phoenix), so it may have just been marketing material.
