Nice article. Worth reading it.
Ok, as a gentler alternative to theft, we just hope that in reality it was a well-meaning employee who wanted to create some buzz around the E71, though they never consulted the teams that generate buzz through legal means. But, there are legal issues that can be brought against Nokia for potentially manipulating the market. And we all know the road to Hell is paved with good intentions.
Until a product hits the market, it's still getting the final tweaks. Even when we launch it, there might be a lag time before we're ready to release the product in the wild, so it would be better to show the device under controlled circumstances so that there are no misperceptions or frustration over an almost-finished product. | |

Yep, that was a nice article indeed. I personally think it's crossing the border to not only leak a product, but to publish a (video) review of a product before it's even announced.

It is totally OK, some products may never see the light of the day, some gets cancelled even before any official press releases, information leak is a natural thing, imagine your self a customer, don't you want to know what may be out in future as soon as possible, otherwise you may make a wrong purchase decision... Ok image yourself being a manufacturer, leaks heart you badly, Osborne Effect, and other things... oh wait don't you like to see what your competitors are doing behind closed doors? | |
