Yesterday, what appeared to be a prototype of a new iPhone was found in a bar and given to Brian Lam, a member of the press. This device featured a front facing camera for video chat, a camera flash and an improved display. All Apple needed to do to secure a return of the device was a formal confirmation that it was indeed theirs… and they have now provided that. Apple might not like the fact that details on the new iPhone were leaked out, but the incident definitely helped build further iPhone buzz; people can’t wait to see the next official version of the ubiquitous phone.
“It has come to our attention that Gizmodo is currently in possession of a device that belongs to Apple, read the letter sent by Apple. This letter constitutes a formal request that you return the device to Apple.”
“I’m sad to see it go,” noted Lam. “We reasoned this pretty little piece of hardware is probably something we’ll see again some time soon, but who knows exactly when. For some of us, that date can’t come soon enough.”
