Yes, it is. He's over the moon about it. He couldn't even believe that an audio chat was possible in India over the Internet.
You should've seen the look on his face when we had a video conference.
Mossberg just kidding about that whole "3G iPhone in 60 days" thing
Mossberg Takes Back 3G iPhone in 60 Days Quote
SAI: Walt Mossberg has no clue when the iPhone 3G will ship
I told you so.
I hope this serves as a reminder for the future. Almost every rumour about Apple is generally based on anonymous tipsters (who might or might not exist) and false assumptions and hardly any of them ever turn out to be true. When even someone as famous as Walt Mossberg can so publicly lie about something Apple is about to do, how hard is it for some unknown entity to spread false rumours? You've already seen how these rumour sites jump on every single hint of a rumour.
What basis do any of you have to trust these stupid rumours? None at all.
I hope this will put a stop to you guys believing all the crap that is published in the media about what Apple is about to do in the future. Barring Steve Jobs, a few of his closest minions and select people from the media (who're always under strict NDAs, mind you, and would never violate them), no one gets to know what Apple is doing and which product they are about to release in future. Apart from the rare leaks that happen sometimes, usually only a day or two before the official announcement, almost every rumour about Apple turns out to be untrue.
I'd written about this Apple rumour phenomenon in detail on Apple Matters. Feel free to give it a once over if you're so inclined.
I see your point, but speculation is Geek food. Can't expect us to stop, can you? Another one of my favourite forums actually has an entire section on speculation!
