I'm all for civility on forums but you can't honestly start a thread proclaiming a new iPhone, especially in the title, and then not expect to be picked apart. Especially when the post is so very far off base from what the title implies.
 
I tell ya the negativity of this forum is outstanding! It ceases to AMAZE even!

We are all anticipating what Apple will do next. We all "KNOW" (being Apple fans/followers) that no-one will know what's next until Apple allows us to see it for ourselves. That being said, this is a forum used for fun, discussion and...hang on to your seats for this one...s.p.e.c.u.l.a.t.i.o.n.

I think that is part of the fun is just guessing, speculating, discussing what will Apple give us next! But man, sometimes it's just humorous how much negativity is breeding out of this place.

A person can post an article they've dug up or post their thoughts on a subject and 9 times out of 10 the next 5-10 replies are childish/rollseyes/sarcastic smartass remarks.

How about, "Hey, thanks for the link but what I believe is..." or in this case...

Dear OP (from me):

Ya know, that could mean we could see something new in March but I don't really believe it myself but thanks for the tip. At least its something! I hate slow iPhone news weeks! :mad: (<<<oops negativity, don't take it the wrong way) :D

:end post



Just sayin' people. I've been a part of so many forums in the past 10 years or so and of all the 'tech' related sites, this one takes the cake for bad attitudes and just pure childish rudeness.

Peace.


Oh and OP. You diggin' you some celebrity news/gossip aren't you? :D

****! just kidding...:D:D
Seriously, I agree... not sure why fanboys are so negative... ;)

Especially when the OP is speculating with no hard evidence and even made up his own poster. You really need to do something in your life other than creating all these useless threads with fake information. It's really driving us nuts.
 
People are mean creatures sometimes.
Give this poster a chance. They sound credible enough.
If March 24th comes with some new stuff, good and we are all going to be happy (well, a lot of us but not all). If not, that's fine as well. At least he/she has the guts to say this. No reason to nitpick a person to the last detail.
Would you do this in real life to a random person?
No, because you would be afraid of your butt getting kicked.

No, this person lied to us directly right in the title. He made up the poster, and tried to lure every single curious forum member into the thread. No evidence on the event whatsoever. THAT'S dangerous. Giving this member credit for having the guts to lie to us is really the opposite of what he should deserve. The least he can do right now is change the title.
 
Mary J. Blige is filming ANOTHER secret new ad for iPod and iPhone, here's some set pics and the official link.

This is stupid.

Mary J. Blige already did an iPod commercial that DID air on TV. In that commercial, she wore the exact clothes, glasses, belt, earrings, etc. she is wearing in that picture.

Stupid.
 
Its an old commercial. no wonder none of the major tech blogs had this story. yet Tallest skil and all the others are just haters, fanboys, uncivil and mean for being right.

to the OP:
Know your stuff before you post something like that.
 
their just a bunch of haters with no life, their only life is in this forum. They say these rude and hateful comments on this forum, because they know they couldn't say these things to real people in real life without getting their likke white a** kicked.


Hilarious.

:rolleyes:

You forgot to add that some of us know the difference between rumor and fact, I and others correct you on your ignorance on this subject and this is what you post?

Google: "Projection"

also Google: "Rumors vs. Facts"
:rolleyes:
 
I actually believe the iphone will be updated some way or another on march 24th - and I have somewhat new info on that.

You see, I am from Norway and ever since the iphone was launched here (with the 3g model) we've only had one tele provider (or whatever it's called - like at&t)...But Now it has been confirmed that another tele provider will support iphone in a short time from now (liek say, in the end of march) and in interviews it is asked frequently why now, with a subtle hint towards leaking news about a new iphone. Of course the guys from the tele company can't reveal anything, but in the way they answer, it sounds like a new iphone is coming right around the corner

Care to point us to a link? video? something that confirms this?

I will, but since no one here speaks norwegian I'll translate the good stuff. But it is confirmed on apple.com that the new vendors are stepping in in a short time...

http://www.spill.no/default.aspx?section=artikkel&id=2549353

The headline says: Telenor gets to sell (new?) iphone
And I'll translate this part:

- Tar jeg feil om jeg sier at dere vil begynne å selge denne telefonen når Apple snart lanserer en ny telefon?

- Om det kommer en ny iPhone må du nesten spørre Apple om, sier Lessum.

9 måneder gammel telefon neppe aktuelt
- Men Telenor er vel ikke så veldig interessert i å selge en 9 måneder gammel telefon?

- Jeg hører spørsmålet ditt, men dette kan jeg ikke svare på, forteller informasjonssjefen som åpenbart har fått munnkurv.


-Am I mistaking if I say you'll start to sell this phone when Apple is about to release a new phone?

-If there is a new iPhone coming, you'd have to talk to apple, says Lessun.

-But a 9 months old phone is hardly worth getting in to now?

-I understand what you are saing, but I can't answer that, tells the informational director whose obviously have been instructed not to tell anything
