Is this the 3G iPhone?

by Peter Ha on May 2, 2008

How is it that the Frenchies get their mitts on a 3G iPhone before anyone else? Does this even look real?

I sure wish it would hurry up and come out. I’m waiting to get one and hoping it gets here before vacation time (June).

It’s either real, very well photoshopped, or a very extreme case modification, as the top of the phone is quite a bit shorter than the top of my iPhone.

IF this is a new iPhone, look at how scratched it is, and it’s only been out in secret testings… That’s why I love the Aluminum of my phone. More sturdy, better looking. Poo on Apple for reverting to plastic (even if it is carbon-fiber-woven plastic)

Haven’t se been over this crunchgear? It’s something that rhymes with a Rinese Chipoff. If you know what I mean.

I don’t know if it is a ripoff or not, it fits the bill on what the iPhone may look like from those templates leaked by accessory manufacturers and it would have to be one of four things:

either
a really lucky guy who found a chinese ripoff that looked exactly how the template says it is going to look
or
a REALLY REALLY fast modification to a current generation iPhone.
or
It is a prototype of what the next generation iPhone is going to look like
or
it is the real deal.

If it is, it looks terrible. Did that phone get used as a sanding block or is it just that scratch prone.

Has to be a fake. That is what you call aesthetically displeasing.
