Hello. I'm Nathaniel Daught, (28) a graphic designer, artist, Mac geek, and gamer. These are my ramblings, photos, links, and art because I sometimes have too much time on my hands... One would assume that you also have too much time on your hands because you are reading this blog. Enjoy.

Gizmodo got it’s hands on a new 2010 iPhone prototype. Looks great. Let’s see if Apple gets them to pull the post and photos.
UPDATE: A great blog post by Andy Ihnatko about this leaked device. He speculates that if it is indeed real, this may not be a finished shell design due to a few cues that make it look a bit cheaper than standard Apple hardare. He also brings-up ethical implications that Gizmondo seems to have ignored by keeping this prototype for at least a week without returning it to Apple, and then posting about it to obviously drive traffic.
I might also add that the round volume buttons really through me off… They look out of place, and very “un-Apple” along with the gaps in the metal frame. It reminds me of the PSP. I don’t mind the basic more flat and simple design, but it’s those few details that come to the surface that make it look like either a fake or early’ish pre-production prototype.
