The "New" New Phone Rumor Mill

Yeah, we have been talking about it over in the news section... leading theory is that it is out of respect for Jobs. Which I'm fully okay with.

Ahhh, gotcha. That's understandable. I'm starting to crack though from the anticipation so hopefully it's at least going to get announced this month. I can live with that.

Makes you wonder is it because of Steve Jobs passing away; them mentioning its not the right time. If so that is truly showing respect.

Indeed it is, I still couldn't believe it when I heard he died Wednesday.

^It is terrible. He is the father of all this smartphone fun we are having! I remember when my roommate at the time got the first iphone. My mind was blown!! I was sitting there with my instantly crappy flip phone hating life!
 
That is the day of the funeral I believe. If this is true, it is both a classy move and a smart move to push back the event. 1) It's just the right thing to do and 2) they wouldn't be able to compete with the Jobs funeral news.

I doubt this will impact the release date (whatever it is).
 
I like that... would like to hear what some of the other regulars to these parts think about it.... It would clean it up quite a bit and now that you say that, I hardly ever go back and read through the links. But something you said does lead me to another question. Should we keep following a phone until official announcement or official release? We rarely have any "confirmed" specs until the official release event, at which point pretty much everything is confirmed and the rest is history and the the baton is passed over to the device thread.

I would say official release because you're right that we rarely know everything until someone has the release model in their hands. And the example you posted with the links at the bottom is a very clean example.
 
I don't know if I am going to try and clean the links for the Nexus for how late in the game it is... but I will definitely implement it for the rest of the devices

I think that's fair to say the least. In Truss we trust. :)

Booooo, Steve Jobs was an iconic figure in technology but to delay a device because he died is a bad move in my opinion (no disrespect intended to the Jobs clan).

Unless the event is on the day of the funeral, this I can understand as many intended attendees will likely be attending the services.
