iPhone Arriving six months early and before the Cingular pricing is announced, one customer has received his early. As is the style, he took pictures of each step in the process, from opening the box to using it. Bonus shots of throwing away his old devices are included.

I’m going to call Cingular right now and see if I can get on this list for early access. I wonder how they got around the FCC certification. I got my hands on instructions to get yours own early. Read on.

Go here.

If the display and time on the phone wouldn't be the same in every shot then it would of been more believable!

The box looked a bit cheap nice joke though.

yea, well ya did get me. But this is a cool story:

So my boss went apeshit over the iphone, and she and I went across the street (in DC) to the cingular store and asked to be put on the waiting list.

Well, there was no waiting list, so she said, well start one! (She's kinda this important person around here). So they did.

I'm number 2. :)

Not to mention the uneven sites as it had been dropped on the floor... These photos alone don't prove anything ;P

NIce! If you click the images to see the larger ones you'll find that they don't even try to hide the fact that it's paper and tape!

The most unbelievable thing in the whole hoax is the fact that the early-iPh... (please, Cisco, don't sue me!) would have been sent to a guy who uses "windoze" :))
