Uhhh.... thoughts??

Amidst all the news of no more Macworld and no STEVE! this comes out. Thoughts? I'm in shock from the duo of events/stories...

 

[Tallest Skil]

Fake. Next.

 

[Luke1robb]

Fake. Next.

You might be right, but who's to say its not real. We need more pictures, but what's your proof of the fake?

 

[acfusion29]

Fake. Next.

Agreed. I think they would at least change how it looks.

Someone edited two words. 2.2 became 3.0 and 16GB became 123GB.

Fake. Next.

Such a joke.




And remember boys and girls, next time you see something that is a future product, take a picture of it at an angle with a crappy cellphone camera.

 

[jmann]

These shots always look like they were taken with someone's crappy cellphone camera.

Edit: someone beat me to it ^^

For bonus points, take it in an elevator.

How do you suggest the change the way it looks? I would argue that that won't happen soon, seeing as Steve Jobs has said that it is silly/stupid to produce multiple style phones with different screen sizes, implying that it would make it harder for developers, essentially ruining the App Store (the #1 iPhone upside versus any "iPhone killer" out there). So the screen won't change, so how do you propose they change the phone?

That thing makes me dry-heave...

Apple will always change the look of the iPhone with each update. It's just common sense. It could have a flat back next time, could be thinner, might have a different bezel, could have a front facing camera, could come in a different color, etc etc.

'Tis where every good rumour starts; in the elevators on Infinite Loop.

Seriously though, "Prototype 3.0"? Neeeeeeeeeeext.

 

[Shackler]

has anyone considered the cost of 128GB Flash memory to put in a phone.
yea, just a thought

 

[nickspohn]

What's worse than the 128GB rumor, is the 4G rumor. I'm sure we will see plenty of those appear.

How bout 3.5G first? Haha, I'm sure we'll see a good amount come March/April

 

[nickspohn]

I doubt people even know 3.5G exists. The average term for the first iPhone is "2G" but it's really 2.5G...

 

[The Governor]

Forget 3.5G or 4G.... give me the next iphone with whitenoise capability......sold

let's get that rumor started

 

[clancemasterj]

Apple would not use "prototype 3.0" as version number.

 

[milani]

Address Not Found

But without even seeing it - Fake. Next.

 

[jmccullough108]

Wow, next...

 

[dukebound85]

thats waaaay to hard. so it has to be legit lol

 

[scaredpoet]

That's not the way it works. You see, the onus is on the purveyor of the pictures to prove they are real, not for us to prove they are fake. Combined with the fact that we haven't seen 32GB chips in production just yet let alone 128GB, and that Version numbers have not ever said "prototype" as of yet, it seems pretty clear that someone tried too hard and failed.

Give the guy a break. He was probably using his iPhone to take the shot. What can you expect?

 

[sergiuria]

That thing is as fake as Santa. Oh, wait.. Well, never mind, you all are old enough to know the truth!

 

[alFR]

That thing makes me dry-heave...

It looks exactly the same as the current 3G....
