“…this is purely my personal opinion…”
is fair enough and I agree, over the time that I have been reading Gizmodo I have known it to jump the gun only to eat humble pie, but that is the nature of the internet.

I’m right here

I believe that my initial answer is still applicable to all the comments that followed.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and I respect that.

Where’re you, Mr. Gadget? Why don’t you come out and answer all these comments?

Right or wrong, it doesn’t matter too much. At the end of the day, most news we see is speculation either from some unknown source or translated source and everyone interprets things differently or will miss things.

Needlesstosay, I’m interested in the new iPhone as it’s finally worth the money, but then again, my biggest issue is GPS and whether there will be preloaded and up-datable maps. 3G service is just too costly for what it’s worth sometimes in my opinion.

Still loving my HTC – Go GPS (mainly because I get world maps with it, not just Australia)

Yep seems the writer of this article is jumping the gun. You can clearly see the % battery levels in the new screenshots that show that they are not from the current 3.0 build, but are in fact more recent. And the compass app, but that’s just obvious imo.

It seems you’re the one jumping guns here. Further translation of the site shows that he was holding a 3rd Generation iPhone and not just iPhone 3.0 OS. In fact he even states that he couldn’t put pics of the phone online because it was a prototype and couldn’t be shown at all.

Editors, I propose an edit: Change the title to “Mr. Gadget gets it wrong”.

The current iPhone has neither compass nor autofocus – leaving your obvious bull in the dust. This is very likely the next iteration of iPhone we’ll be seeing very soon.

[...] might just be screenshots that were posted a month ago displayed on a current gen iPhone. At least, Mr.Gadget thinks so. The only problem I have with this is that there are a few images on the iPhone above [...]
