How can they leak something they already leaked/implied themselves on purpose in their media event invitation with a giant "5" showing as the shadow?
This is not news. I mean we already know it's going to be called iPhone 5.
It's like every tech reporter is waiting for any news about anything apple.
"OMG the lead developer just farted out (in morse code) the new colors of the new phone!" - and then write a 500 word piece on the subject.

We didn't already know that. In fact, I would have been willing to bet that the new iPhone would have been called just iPhone in the same fashion as the new iPad. I thought that the "5" shadow in the announcement was a red herring.
Yawn. They've also leaked thousands of parts. There are already knock off phones for sale that will look exactly like the one they're about to reveal. Global product launches involving over a million people don't happen in total secrecy.
In just one hour, they will "leak" everything there is to know.
I understand the hype before a new iphone launch, but this article is the type that i wish could be blasted off the front page. Totally devoid of any useful info.
Part of me says "why is this news?", and part of me says this is uncharacteristically sloppy for Apple.
Exactly. The sloppiness is the interesting part. Especially that their search indexes include draft posts.
The iPod touch post was for the release of the 4th gen Retina Touch. That was released in September 2010.
More importantly, none of these "leaks" are surprises. They've either been confirmed by Apple(the 5 in the announcement), or are for devices that are overdue for a new version-the newest iPod Touch and Nano models were originally released in 2010.

The date in the URLs is for today. Yeah, it's no big surprises on the names and updates. Just thought it was funny that Apple's search indexes on their site provided links to draft status posts.
It's going to be called 'iPhone 5'!
Genius!
