Everything Apple makes is aesthetically perfect (or almost). From the small remote that comes with Apple TV to the Mini the MacBook and the Mac Pro, and especially the iPhone. Even the smallest iPods.
Every line, curve and surface is extremely well designed and gorgeous. And you're going to try to convince me that Apple, a company that stakes its reputation behind every product they release. A company that values design above almost all else, is going to release something as odd looking as all these leaked photos and videos?
I'm supposed to believe that Apple who value design as much as they do are going to compromise their integrity towards such design because they don't want to to piss off some developers? I'm supposed to believe this? Not to mention that they're going make such compromises on their flagship product? The one that brings in more money than anything else?
Absolutely no way unless we're on Bizzaro world. I think Sir Ive would rather quit and walk away from something like this than allow it to happen. Forget what Steve Jobs would do he's gone and it doesnt matter. But someone at Apple must have the balls to stand up and say, "No".
This exact point was made two years ago before the reveal of the iPhone 4.
It was wrong then by the way.
Only time will tell if it's wrong again.
