FWD highlights an early iPhone 4 concept design created by Apple’s designer Shin Nishibori. It unequivocally confirms what I’ve repeatedly said since the introduction of the iPhone 4: it feels like an old school Sony product. Just like looks like a 70s Betamax VCR. [FWD]

Genetic Proof That Nobody Is Perfect
Believe It Or Not, LinkedIn Would Have Been Even More Annoying In the '80s
Scientific Proof That Everyone Lies
“Just like looks like”? And that “looks like a 70s Betamax VCR” link doesn’t go to anything related to betamax, just one of Jesus’s old articles and is completely unrelated to the actual article. It just looks like a way for him to get more page hits on his articles.
Back on subject, The Iphone 4/4s are practically the same, minus the buttons. Sony should sue.
Also, why is the article image copied from this one?

It all seems rather half arsed. Unlike Mr Diaz himself, who appears to be a full arse.
You also said this though…….http://gizmodo.com/5912327/why-the-next-iphone-wont-be-169
What an utter load of rubbish – Sony Betamax VCRs look NOTHING like smart phones – they were covered in silver metal/plastic I had one!
Steve Jobs was quoted many times saying they tried to design Sony products, since that was the hardware they all looked up to – THIS IS NOT A DIAZ INNOVATION STOP POSTING THREE LINE RUBBISH ARTICLES.
His “70′s betamx” link doesn’t even lead to anything related to betamax, it just goes to an article where he fawns over the appearance of the 16:9 iphone, despite posting this article before.

Kinda cheeky blaming samsung for copying their design taking in consideration similar designs themselves.
I don’t understand this article.
I don’t own an iphone.
I don’t own a betamax.
