Apple is having a fit right now I'm sure...

Man, this would be cool.
Two cam's, one on the face for person to person vid-com's. Very very nice...
Looks like its modelled after the iMac.
..................if this really is an Apple iPhone.
You know... I wonder if they left it there.? (on purpose)

I thought this too. It's not their usual M.O., but maybe they're trying out new marketing techniques. (new to them anyway)
lolol...
Love those letters to each other. lol...
We'll probably never find out if its just a viral tactic of advertising or not. Cool though to see the next-gen phone. Man... I am going to need to get a part time job to afford these toys...

If I were Giz I would ask for proof that it is "a device that belongs to Apple", but the letter proves that it IS the new phone. So it all good to Giz.

I'd at least ask Apple for a description of the device to make sure it's the same one.

Does this even really matter?

Err, this has been standard on most camera phone for at least four years now...
At least my Sony Ericsson K810i had it and my Samsung i8910 has this as well.

Perhaps I'm a party pooper, but I don't see any positives about this.
First off, the idiot who did this is no doubt fired from his job, and rightfully so!
But, beyond that, Apple likely has not finalized the design, so I think any descriptions of features are premature and likely subject to inaccuracies.
Apple will no doubt now consider closing off testing outside the company buildings, and that means less robust and realistic field testing. Then again, perhaps they will rightly chalk this up to one stunningly stupid former employee.
To me, it's kind of like opening your Christmas gifts early and losing the thrill of Christmas morning.

You can't really call for robust and realistic field testing then suggest the employee was 'stunningly stupid' for what is an easy mistake to make (losing your phone/wallet etc).
Anyway chances are this was intentional from Apple. I would not be surprised in the slightest if the person that Gizmodo bought it from was an Apple employee with a fabricated story. Apple thrive off this rumour mill (with the exeption of the Ipad, when the hype got the the point that the actual release was extremely disappointing for the people who had heard it would be able to make your breakfast).
spot on.
No matter how much I think it doesn't have a place in anyone's personal device lineup, They're selling those things like it's something to do.
Some YouTube's on the device. They filmed it.
