Are you trying to say that Apple would create fake leaks so that Samsung can't copy it? The phone is released in 4 weeks, man. If Samsung wants to copy it, they can wait 4 weeks.

Probably just me watching old videos then, but I'm not really a Bieber/Twilight fan so most things I watch are from the 70's/80's.
It's almost certainly the mind boggling numbers of iPhones manufactured that's to blame. It's amazing they're able to keep the lid on as tightly as they have.
the lid on as tightly as they have.
That's like saying the Titanic took on a bit of water!
The longer iPhone is going to be nice. Take this for reference. Another 4" 16:9 phone compared to current iPhone
Apple's Pitfall
Hey Apple,
If you're going to accuse Samsung of copying you, you need to be prepared for Activison to sue you for copying the main character from Pitfall for the parts in your iPhone.

Just seems crazy that that we have seen so many leaks. Never have we seen so many parts leaks from so many different sources.
Double security?
Personally I really hope that this is all misdirection and the real thing is way different, but I don't believe that will be the case.
My wife said she won't get a new one, she'll keep her 4S. She doesn't like the tall skinny look. I want a larger screen in all directions and have been stuck with this small screen for what....2 and a half years since larger screens have been normal. I'll be off to a different phone. It'll be strange having a different brand. I have had a iPhone since iPhone day and had every one on launch day.
Still waiting for the official reveal before making that decision.

Wow... you came damn close to hitting nearly everything I said in my post:

Also forgot, "These are FAKEs. Apple would have sent out C&D letters if they were real."
Looks like the leaks for the new iPhone coming out in the Fall of 2013 have just arrived
Now there is a remote control!
There are these amazing new inventions called tripods that attach to cameras so you can take the same composed photo over and over and over.

Even if I don't agree with them, I usually respect an opposing opinion. I am adult enough to respect your opinion, without resorting to placing a label on you.
More On topic....
Corporations have used such tactics in the past, and if you assume apple is above that, people in your situation would be experiencing the intended level of expectation.
Corporations have also leaked misinformation to watch were it leaks from, in order to mole out squeaky individuals that they employ. Doubling down on secrecy may involve such tactics too.
Apple has the money to spend on fake prototyping to achieve such mole hunts, thus why I would not put it past them.

The dock connector will have all audio in/out so there's really no need for adding the jack when docked (if not stability) - it's just the annoyance of removing the headphones every time that seems like a careless design choice.
But it makes sense to put it near both speakers and microphone to cut down on long cables inside - I just hope the IOS 6 home screen rotates so this annoyance can be evened out.
But positioning two different phones identically is almost impossible. And chances are, one of those tiny pebbles would've moved at least a little bit between shots.
Who is making many phones?
Btw apple worked on the idea of a taller iphone before but was not ok'ed,guess by whom
and the reason simple because it was uuuugly, the bezel of the iphone combined with a 4" 16:9 screen is like a facking skyscraper 
I feel cramped by the width of the screen currently. If this design (one with the same screen width) is the final design, I don't see how holding and feeling the device will change the figure representing the width of the display or what I think about it.
And the point of an extra row of apps is?
What's the point of getting a bigger house? So you can put more stuff in it?
I'm still confused about what apps will look like on the new screen size. Will there be fragmentation, and black bars on older apps?
