Fail: Video of 'Steve Jobs' rehearsing iPhone 5 introduction

Some people don't even try anymore. There's a video circulating on many Asian tech sites (and now some English ones) that is purportedly Steve Jobs rehearsing the keynote speech for the introduction of the iPhone 5.
According to the fake video, the next iPhone 5 will feature digital scent technology and a battery that doesn't need to be recharged. It's not those wild claims that make this video obviously fake, it's that the man who is supposed to be Steve Jobs doesn't sound anything remotely like him. But the absolute best part of the video has to be when Steve Jobs stops to change his shoes. Total fail people.

Oh no! TUAW is once again offended when their dear Steve Jobs is not portrayed to their satisfaction. Get over it! It wasn't a fail, it was meant to be a joke! Do people even try any more? Well reading the junk you call journalism on this site, I would say no.

If you find who makes those shoes, you'll know who's responsible for the video.
Wow- so authentic, it must be the real deal. How did those college kids get into Cupertino place and take over the auditorium?

too funny but no way it's even Steve.
Sounds nothing like Steve Jobs
