Interesting how they decided to already publish the article although they have nothing more than the teaser but no actual content.

Developing… Please refresh for updates.

Obviously the "hype" for a new iphone is still up & running since there is a thread for not yet officially announced device...

I have a suspicion that removing the home button and relying on swipe-interactions might be a step back in usability for the non-tech savvy people who have made up a large share of iPhone users.

Doesn't Apple announcing it at their "Special Event" count as an officially announced device?

First thought: how well can they discern in the mail app whether I wanted to scroll down or go to the home screen?

I probably have to swipe carefully from the very bottom or stay away from the bottom?

This is what it looks like when people game HN. An article with no content submitted 3 minutes ago has 24 Upvotes. Seems legit...

Now it has 32 upvotes in the last 30 seconds...

38 now.

41...

44. These are less than 30 second intervals.

Device itself is announced, that news is exactly only that. Right now on apple stream you can see them going through specs
