- I withdraw my nomination per added sources. Computerjoe's talk 18:51, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. Erechtheus 18:17, 12 September 2006 (UTC)Keep per newly added sources confirming the product. Erechtheus 18:41, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]Delete. A rumor about a forthcoming product from Apple? Like all the rest, fails WP:V quite badly. Personally I'm still waiting for their new PDA that was absolutely positively going to be released 5 years ago. Geoffrey Spear 18:19, 12 September 2006 (UTC)Keep per below. Geoffrey Spear 19:40, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]- How is it unverifiable? The article links to two reports of Steve Jobs giving people a sneak preview of this product. Indeed, it appears to be quite easy to verify the excerpt from the article that is given in the nomination here. Uncle G 18:42, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- You may want to peruse the history. There were no sources in the article and no apparent sources as of the time of these delete votes. That's the danger of a quick nomination. Erechtheus 18:46, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- True, that is a danger; but this edit did come before this edit. However, it has taken me a long time to write a rationale on occasion ... ☺ Uncle G 19:33, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- One minute is a long time? You'll have to excuse me for assuming the unsourced article I read about a future Apple product was based entirely on rumor. In the future I'll reload the article between typing out my argument for deletion and hitting Save. Geoffrey Spear 19:43, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep This is not a rumor, the article is based on an official announcement referring to an unreleased product. Senordingdong 18:27, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Though as with all upcoming projects, it may change names or be cancelled, at which point it will have to be moved or merged. I've also added the future product template. --AlexWCovington (talk) 19:38, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep It's official.
