You act like the guy uncovered them and was showing a box of the iPhone 6. He did no wrong.

I'm not saying he should be fired. Just that companies fire people for lame stuff and I could see that happening here.
 
The fact that you are an old time reader does not entitle you to a chair on the editorial board - or whatever MR has.

Of course it does.

The writers write what they want.
The publishers publish what they want.
The readers read what they want.

Right. I don't recall saying that they had no right to do what they wished. Merely that this is a new low. Am I not entitled to my own opinion, same as you?

Don't cross the lines.

"Don't cross the lines"? What does that even mean?
 
Hey, Tim's in the plane too! :)

Iphone 6 plus order

I pre-ordred mine though AT&T was told in store 7-21 business days. Got a email saying your estimated dates are 11/09/14-11/27/14 anyone else get this? Hope i'm not the only one.....:confused:
 
This isn't news, and it isn't a rumor. We know the iPhone 6 is shipping. We know it's coming. A picture of cargo that could be, for all we know, twenty-five tons of fish, really isn't very exciting.

As someone who's frequented Mac rumor sites for over 12 years, this is probably the worst I've ever seen.

What interest do you honestly get out of this?

Watching people like you get upset over it;):cool:

It's a FAN site . Fans of Apple visit this site . You're exaggerating if you say this is the worst you've seen . When have we ever gotten a look at the cargo inside/off of the plans ? Never .

It IS interesting and there are people who obviously don't mind seeing this post .

Again, you know what I do when I don't like an article ? I keep it moving . I don't post on the article and I don't read the article . Simple .

Not everyone likes/dislikes the same things you do ...
 
Some of the posters on here have a stick up their @$$ (looking at you gpat/MacSince1990).

The pilot is excited to be a small cog in the machine and is sharing pictures. I'd rather have MR post this than nothing at all.
 
Cool to see, but I hope that photo doesn't come back to bite that guy. I imagine most cargo carriers want to keep their customers and customers' cargo confidential. As someone with a basic knowledge of the air freight industry, I can narrow his employer down to one of 3-4 companies (or perhaps less) just knowing the ANC-ORD routing and the fact it was a 747.

That dude is TOAST. as in fired!
 
Surprised they don't have armed security watching over them.

These phones have a retail value of let's say $120 million. However, if Apple has their serial numbers and can kill them all (which I assume they can), they cannot be resold, so the damage of theft to Apple would be just the cost of replacing them, plus loss of earnings due to the delay. So a lot less than $120 million. Still a lot of money. Maybe there are guards around the airport, and you don't need to guard one specific airplane?
 
This is awesome... Love stuff like this.

Mine is not on there, as I haven't ordered yet. Need to wait til Sep 26th... Very excited for those that these are going to... :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
