iPhone Extreme - You Thought It Was Over…

Holy schmokes! iPhone Extreme? Well, sorta… Bad naming? Without a doubt. Nevertheless, the Apple iPhone Feedback page clearly shows a ‘product’ meta-tag showing that the ‘iPhone Extreme’ is to be the name of (or is at least temporarily) Apple’s latest and greatest re-incarnation of the iPhone. If the price-drop sounded harsh, you can sure bet that early-adopters will be shrieking shrilly and blogging all night at the mere suggestion of a 16GB+ iPhone.
Back to the ‘Extreme’ naming. Whilst grossly over-used and rather ‘20th century wannabe cool’ suggesting, ‘Extreme’ has been used by Apple recently - to great success. The Airport Extreme. For those of you claiming a ’sloppy’ cut and paste feedback form error, 9-to-5 Mac assures us that both pages are nothing a like.

UPDATE: I can confirm that the meta-tag is still there. You woulda thought that if this was a real leak and not just a mistake, the lawyerbots would have dealt with it by now. I’m still pretty sure that there’s an element of truth in here somewhere though.
