We brought you news a little while back that Apple had sent 50 of their top engineers over to Taipei to work out some bugs with the iPhone. Apparently the source over at Ars Technica was a “bad apple†because Gizmodo's unnamed source says different.

I can’t believe anyone gullible enough to believe Cingular’s exclusive on the iPhone last only two weeks. Apparently there are such people in this world. One in particular goes by the name Dave.
