"Leaked" iPhone images show video chatting, slimmer iPhone?

There are two major flaws that stick out in these images, the first of which is the lack of a sleep/wake button on the red iPhone in the image above. The second of which: where the iChat details are shown, the requirements state "Windows Xp." However, Apple always states "XP" as just that; not upper case, then lower case letters.
We do have to agree with Engadget when it comes to the video chat images. Ryan Block states, "No Apple design would be laid out the way this guy's got his page laid out here." We have to agree -- Apple designs are normally clean and minimalist; not jumbled as these images are.

Late last night, several rumor websites, including CrunchGear, reported that they had received copies of "leaked" iPhone advertisements....

i love iPod 160 GB.
I was a little cautious about ordering the i Pod after reading some of the negative reviews. But, it is the largest hard drive on the market and I need the storage room. So, I placed the order and crossed my fingers.
It works great. I am syncing it to an HP Vista Home Premium notebook with 3 megs of memory. Syncing is fast and accurate. The movies and TV shows look great. Sound quality is outstanding and the battery life is beyond any other MP3 player I have used.
What is the point of this? Who wastes their time thinking "Haha, I'm going to spend hours making up some fake images of a product to deceive people!"

None of the petty little mistakes in the add can over power the elegance and perfection in the design of the device. This might not be what the promo images of the new iPhone will look like, but i'm 100% sure this is the new iPhone and i'm super exited.
I read some of the arguments for why this is fake and they all sound pretty weak compared to how good this design is. I have a much harder time believing that some guy pulled this incredibly perfect design out of his ass.
The phone has speakers in the back with not feat, but it doesn't need feet cause it's cursed near the edges. You can't see the sleep/wake button on one of them and "Xp" isn't "XP".....so? again, is that really enough to discredit this perfect new iPhone. And the ichat image looks very Apple to me.
The thing that sells me on this is the iChat icon that they are using in the other pictures on CrunchGear. Its less glossy than the normal OSX icon for iChat, and somehow feels more 'windows'. I'm not really explaining it good, I hope you understand what I'm trying to say but whatever. If it was a mockup I don't think they would go into that much detail.
