If that was true, I'd either have bought a 3GS in April (which I considered and rejected) or waited for the 4 as the spec was leaked long before launch. But I guess I'm just not 'cool'. I can live with that.

What was leaked wasn't half of what was released

What mattered to me was. What of significance wasn't leaked?

And remember what Steve Jobs said in the keynote.....

"There are over 100 new features, but I'm going to cover 8"

Let's just recap on some of the iPhone '4' rumour spec list..

• 960 x 640 resolution screen (highest of any mobile device)
• 'IPS' LCD screen
• Forward facing camera
• 5 Megapixel main camera with LED flash
• Higher capacity battery!
• Noise cancelling microphone
• Microsim slot
• NEW DESIGN

Remember how '3' years ago tried to get video calling a standard? They failed. You know how apple just make things that work.....well could this be the start of the video calling generation?

The battery isn't new (I think they always had one of those ), the screen resoltion was leaked, the antenna is just an attempt to improve the poor performance of the previous generation (and possibly of limited success judging by the wifi failure at the keynote). The material of contruction would not be a deal maker or breaker to me. Anything else?

(It doesn't matter whether the leaks came from Gizmodo or not. They were still leaked).

Its finally coming to T=Mobile officially.

The battery life is new - Its much improved on the 3gs...

The screen resolution was leaked but it wasnt the leaked device that taught us about it... you said the leaked device gave u all u need.. that was just the basic design!

The antenna will improve the performance and wifi failure wasn't due to the device but the fact they were sharing 1 connection with everyone in the room - Have you ever used wifi at the conference center? I have, many times - it sucks.

etc etc etc
