Gizmodo leak details of iPhone 4G Posted: 19 Apr 2010 03:23 PM PDT Gizmodo has extensive details on what appears to be an iPhone 4G. You can never really tell with these ‘leaks’ but this one certainly seems to be genuine. The actual device sounds great, but the real story is how Gizmodo got their hands on the unit. They claim it was ‘found in a bar’, which just sounds ridiculous. I can’t imagine an Apple employee would be (a) careless enough to fiddle with such a device in public and (b) daft enough to leave it behind. The most obvious conclusion is that an Apple employee has stolen the device and sold it to Gawker (the owners of the Gizmodo website). If this is the case it’ll be interesting to see how this plays out. Sure, Gizmodo are getting the pageviews just now, but down the line it might do them more damage than good. Apple are sure to deny them access to any promotional events or pre-release products, and there may even be legal recourse if it can be proven they have received stolen goods.
