The latest hot story today is that Nokia launched their very own iPhone. Engadget started off with the confusion, which led to it going on digg, and finally it hit the mainstream news. And many articles appeared asking if Nokia was copying Apple.
But a few hours later, Engadget came back with a story that basically said they made a mistake on their last post. It turns out that Nokia was just showing off their software and not the phone itself (Yes, the phone is fake, it's computer generated). Of course Nokia never clarified that in the ad (but it does look nice).
Nokia fanboys may be left disappointed but Nokia sure is happy. With a little twist of fate, the upcoming phone from Nokia received more attention than it would have if it was demoed on some other mock-up. And just in case you haven't seen it, here's the Nokia iPhone ad.
