Myriad is the default if you are in Illustrator... so it shouldn't be hard to find!

Dakar² · Jan 12, 2007, 01:54 PM

Being a font snob is part of being a good designer.

Kenneth · Jan 12, 2007, 01:58 PM

He trashed the T-mobile Sidekick 3 too.

I'm glad you took that light heartedly. I was [trying] being cute.

You should sell you Mac now and buy a peecee. What kind of Mac fan wouldn't take anything over a fake badly taped together iPhone over anything else?

Oneota · Jan 12, 2007, 08:13 PM

He should've recycled the Diet Dr. Pepper cans, though.

He probably recycled the Dr. Pepper!

residentEvil · Jan 12, 2007, 11:09 PM

i don't know why people don't send them back; who wants a phone that reads the time of 9:41 all the time.

guess it's right 2x a day...

macgeek2005 · Jan 13, 2007, 12:40 AM

How is that fake?

Are you serious?!?

I am pretty sure Apple isn't using scotch tape to keep the thing together.

Eug Wanker · Jan 13, 2007, 01:38 AM

It's not fake. That's just a review unit.

Let me guess, the final unit will use duct tape.

It had to be fake because they can't sell it right now:

This device has not been authorized as required by the rules of the Federal Communications Commission. This device is not, and may not be, offered for sale or lease, or sold or leased, until authorization is obtained.

Well, there are about eleventy billion™ reasons why this is fake. You picked another good one

Who said they were selling it? It's just a very early prototype sent out for (p)review.

All they need to do is fix the clock and update the casing, and then the FCC can approve it.

My favorite part:
"Small box -- would have thought it was a wireless Mighty Mouse. "

Things I liked:
On in the box
visible edges of paper iTaped on box

Yeah, you can still see the outlines of the Might Mouse on the box. The paper doesn't cover it all

You can see the white paper where he has stuck it on the mighty mouse box!

Of course not, but that's how I knew it was fake before even opening the link... Even without the iTape and the Amazon reference it would have been fake because of this.

Eriamjh · Jan 13, 2007, 07:37 PM

That guy is laughing at all the Mac users who went to his web page.
