thats why apple is so overrated.
I hope its really something good this time, since Iphone4 is really disappointing nga ga mahay ko nipalit pako T_T (except for app store)... my wife's droid (galaxy s2) kicked its butt real hard it looks like its already ancient if you compare the two. XD

I'm beginning to think this is a marketing ploy.

Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.

its not just an iphone... maybe its an iphone 5... and im sure you know this device hasnt been released yet. im not a fan of iphone though but somehow in this modern technological world, anything thats connected with the advancement would be breaking news.

prototype sa iphone 5.

ug kung ila ni style para mosikat or maka taas ug sales sa time sa pagrelease ani, aw well done jud kaayo kay sikat jud ang mga iphones. pero in short wa jud ta kahibaw if toyo ba nga nawala or tinood ba jud nga nawala.

Technology news website CNET on Wednesday reported that a new version of Apple's coveted iPhone went astray in a bar in a replay of an embarrassing loss that took place last year.
An Apple employee lost a yet-to-be released iPhone model in a tequila bar in the San Francisco Mission District in July, according to CNET.
Apple electronically tracked the device to a San Francisco home but the resident denied knowing anything about the missing iPhone, which may have been sold for a couple of hundred dollars at online auction house eBay, CNET said.
The report prompted speculation whether the missing iPhone was a next-generation expected to be unveiled by Apple in September or October.
Word of another unreleased iPhone model disappearing in a bar came just weeks after prosecutors decided not to pursue criminal charges against Gizmodo technology bloggers who got hold of a lost iPhone 4 prototype last year.
Criminal charges were filed against a man who purportedly found the iPhone 4 prototype in a bar and another who brokered a deal to sell it to Gizmodo, according to the district attorney's office in San Mateo County, California.
Early last year, Gizmodo published pictures and details of the iPhone prototype after buying it for $5,000 from a man who claimed to have found it in a beer garden where it was lost by an Apple software engineer.

you miss something bro...its a prototype...its in testing stage so if this is true of course they are going to track it...doesnt necessarily mean the public phone works the same way
