Apple unveiled iPhone Duo at $1,999 last Tuesday. [1] Weekend hands-ons called the crease and the weight the limits after the excitement. [2] This paper printed Ternus's event and Macworld's leftover limits. Sunday has no teardown. Hands-on is not a lab. A $1,999 price is not a ship-today. Print the weekend copy as still the file. Do not print a teardown. No teardown PDF is in Sunday's San Francisco copy.

A crease in a hands-on is still a crease. Sunday recap that treats praise as a teardown PDF is a feed, not Macworld.
No teardown PDF is in Sunday's San Francisco copy, so the crease remains a hands-on complaint.
Unnamed labs publish first; Sunday's hasn't. October shelves remain the month; teardowns belong to whoever publishes one first.
Weekend hands-on units are controlled demos, not retail hardware. Reviewers note creases; labs measure them. The $1,999 price measures something else entirely: confidence.

Measured creases and priced confidence; Sunday measures both. Measuring is the update. Labs publish first.

Retail hardware waits on October; Sunday's units are demos. Creases get notes. Two thousand dollars measures confidence, not a pocket.

Hands-on notes after Tuesday's $1,999 unveil still mention a crease and a weight. Those units are staged demos, not shop-floor phones. No teardown a reporter can cite has been published. A price is not a ship date.

Sunday still has no ship date. Sunday still has no shop-floor phone. A teardown is not on this Sunday file.
