Furthermore, this could be a great control implementation for creators of the FPS genre. Hold with two finger on one side of the back to shoot, while the two virtual joysticks are used solely for movement and view. Who knows...
Got a tip for us?

it's a prototype because the picture that proves it the most (the one with the ipad) is a bunch of months old. You think they have retail versions of the iPhone then? lmao.
And we already know the resolution is likely 960x640.
Nah, that's just a lame "iphone-like" render designed to look sort of familiar but not exactly like anyone's tradedress.
Remember, correlation is not necessarily causation. You cannot simply assume that because one thing is real in a photograph that the other must be.
I personally don't mind the design (prototype or not), although it is unlike Apple. To me, it definitely has a SE look to it, as many suggested. Either way, the specs will be awesome, the OS will be awesome, and well... i just shattered the screen on my iPhone so I'm getting one lol
It doesn't contradict anything. Are you offended by the use of iPhone 2G as well?
It's confusing because it's the first generation iPhone being called 2G. Following your reasoning, every unofficial "XG" naming should be avoided.
I think my head is going to explode.
Its as about as legit as those lockness monster pictures.
It's as about (sic!) as authentic as your spelling of Loch Ness and it's
Ex:
Red=Fake
Green=Real
The crazy thing is that the pic is actually not photoshopped.. I mean, obviously the head is fake.. but you know what I mean. Most people would look at it and yell "Shopped"... but it's actually not.. which makes it a hilarious picture lol
That was the case for the original iPhone because it was an entirely new product, not a revision of an existing one.
Fine, call it whatever the hell you damned well please.
Just don't come back complaining that your posts aren't being read because Google thinks the 'iPhone 4G' is the sixth-generation phone on the LTE network.
Good grief...
Ex:
wall=real
animal thing=fake
lol so a photo from months ago in deepest darkest apple r&d is the same as that?
hahaha
testing.
Just like the iPad is in a prototype/testing case in that image, the prototype iPhones I will bet are also in prototype/testing cases. Obviously Apple is working on iPhones - probably generations out, explaining things like the 80 gigs of storage etc.. So I don't really know why this is surprising at all, but this is not the iPhone case we will see in June. At least I hope not.
I am a little surprised that an apple employee would have left this top secret device at a bar though. If this is a genuine Apple prototype though, it will not look like that.

I don't think it looks all that great but we'll see what the final one looks like, if this is indeed real .
I'm still thinking it is a handmade, one off, testing the OS or something. The design is very uncharacteristic of Apple, IMHO. It lacks sexiness. It just looks too... (sorry, I need to say this) UNSMILEY. I like it- it's different but I can't help but think that the volume buttons on the side just don't mesh with the overall design style of the phone. I don't hear a giddy song playing in the background of the commercial for this one.
I do dig the look, though. I like the textured aluminum sides even if the gaps are a little too big for an Apple product. I don't think Apple is going for a removable battery because it doesn't mesh with their design standards right now.
I don't know- I like it, but I still don't think this is it. Plus, why is it sitting on a prototype iPad?
