So it's not only partners and complementors that let tid bits slip about new product releases. This one's on Apple

That iOS video is a fake. In the Apple world, light sources always come from directly above, so that drop shadow at an angle is totally wrong.

I think iOS is pretty catchy. Me likes

Graphics conventions aside, this name change is very consistent with how Apple has worked in the past when a name no longer quite applies to new realities. Apple Computer became Apple Inc. There is another great example, but I just can't retrieve it from my aging memory banks at present. A little help from others?

Try to refresh your iPhone's OS right now - the next refresh date refuses to move past the 27th. iTunes REALLY wants us to auto-check for a new OS tomorrow.

I think this is legitimate, here are the reasons:

1. "iPhone OS" name need changing
2. I think splat paint background meant to be new graphic elements for apple to communicates "Touch"

Just my $0.25

Another data point: I tried to call Apple to switch my iPhone Developer Program membership from my individual name to my newly-minted LLC. The woman at the ADC phone number said I'd have to call back later in the week, because the system to handle corporate developer memberships has been down for upgrades all week. Whatever's going to happen, it seems like it's going to affect the entire iPhone developer community.

Okay, since we are only hours away from an already confirmed new device (i.e., a tablet), can we stop circulating the rumors? Only a few hours left...please. \

What about lies? I can tell a good lie? Want one?
