You cannot have failed to hear about the iPhone 4G leak this past week; it’s been all over the Web. But the iPhone 4G isn’t the only Apple product the technology blog Gizmodo has leaked.
This video shows the latest prototype “found” by someone and handed to the site. One which is subjected to a rigorous tear-down, with the internal components all studied in detail.
OK, so not really. In actual fact this is a spoof, and the Apple product in question is actually a woman’s handbag, complete with sunglasses, cigarettes, some chewing gum, lip gloss, a purse, a diary, and best of all, a BlackBerry.
If you think this is a little unfair on Gizmodo, Gawker Media, or even the person who sold the iPhone 4G to the site, then think how the Apple engineer who lost it, Gray Powell, feels. He could lose his job over the incident, assuming it wasn’t a cleverly staged piece of Apple PR.
