Fake iPhone unboxing
Okay. This is humor and we all know that humor is not universal. So if you don't find this site as funny as I did, well, that's kind of the breaks. I think this fake unboxing site is hilarious and I loved how they put in all the standard unboxing shots that you'd expect. There's the whole story, starting off with the Amazon two-day delivery, the comparison shots between the iPhone, the quarter, and the SK3. There's even the ceremonial tossing of the now-useless cellphone competitors. They don't even try to hide the tape holding together the iPhone mockup. Brilliant stuff. Absolutely brilliant.
Thanks Stefan.

rofl this was funny and appeals to very few people who will understand its humour.
It was funnier a few days ago when it first appeared on engadget as well. Zing!

Hello, my name is Prince Scammeruala. I actually have the iPhone, and I can give it to you. My father was friends with Steve Jobs, but he was killed and I have to flee the country. Please wire me your bank account number, social security number, and all relevant data so that I may safely secure my money, and you shall be rewarded with an iPhone.
DISCLAIMER: This is HUMOR. Do not take this seriously. If you do, you probably deserve to be scammed.

I know it won't come turned on, but I wonder if the iPhone will actually ship with the Finding Nemo wallpaper in June.

Since it's a stock OS X wallpaper it surely will

Funny idea, but anyway. Apple is hating this kind of stuff and i know, they gotta do something against this kind of faking.

Sure, the next 50 GB model will be unboxed next June with the real one.

Didn't http://www.SillyReviews.com do this already? I wonder who was first. If you haven't seen the ridiculous video review of the Apple iPhone already on SillyReviews.com, go check it out. I think it's on the second page of articles/reviews now.
