Considering almost EVERYTHING right now is non-official, everything should be taken with a grain of salt, so I still do not see his point (if indeed that is his point). And if there are people wasting their own personal time to try and defer people into other directions, then theres nothing you can do to stop that. That can occur at any time, on any forum. That doesn't mean I'm going to browse through all my tech forums with a sense of paranoia. If you honestly put THAT much faith into a random person on the internet's proposition then I'd hate to see how many people are able to take advantage of you. And if you're implying that AT&T is paying people to come in here and spark a fire, well, Wonderbread already cleared that up. How many people in here are honestly going to be influenced(reletive to, well, the rest of the UNITED STATES)?I think he's saying that there could be people purposely posting false information or planting seeds of unrest to get us all riled up. Let's be honest, that's getting easier these days as the anxiety around a possible announcement or release draws nearer.
In other words, he's suggesting not to react to purposely inflammatory or "fanboyish" responses because they are "baiting the bears."
FWIW, I think he might be right.
Trust me. Nothing to be paranoid of. Take every speculation as what it is: speculation. Wait for the official announcements, then start counting your pennies.
