Another iPhone 4 sighting reported

This time a blog in Vietnam is reporting an encounter with the upcoming iPhone.

The blog contains both pictures and a video of the device, which is more or less identical to the one shown a couple of weeks ago by Gizmodo.

Like the last sighting, this handset sports a metal band around the end, smaller volume adjustment buttons and a side-mounted SIM slot. All-in-all, nothing new here, really. The back print says that the device has a 16GB capacity, but we could have guessed that anyways.

V3.co.uk offices are fairly split on the authenticity. The timing of the video along with the screen that never seems to change status is leading some to believe that the whole thing is a hoax intended to bring traffic to a blog and drive up ad revenues. Then again, the device looks an awful lot like the iPhone Gizmodo paid for and if it is a fake, they have certainly put in their time to craft it.

If it's real, Apple is going to be less than pleased at the leak, but given the inevitability of a new iPhone in the next few weeks, I don't think the company is going to lose a ton of sleep over it. The firm that employs whoever it was that leaked the device, however, might just be going into attack mode over the whole thing.
