Gizmodo has made quite a commotion on the Internet with their purchase of a stolen/lost iPhone 4G (is that even what we should be calling it?) for a rumored 5K-10K. Whether this was actually stolen and then bought by Gizmodo or simply lost and then returned to Gizmodo for a price is up for debate, but there are plenty of other layers to this story that can be debated, as well.

The rumors just keep rolling in on Apple’s now legendary tablet. Sadly, they don’t always get better. The latest rumor from DigiTimes claims we’ll have to wait even longer to get our hands on that Apple Tablet we all want so badly. But don’t get too sad, the extended wait is said to bring some benefits, like a lower price and an OLED option.

Earlier today, Silicon Alley Insider ran a report that Newsweek’s Dan Lyons—aka “Fake Steve Jobs”—has been banned from CNBC for life because of an appearance he made on the network earlier today in which he got into a heated discussion with CNBC’s Jim Goldman over Steve Jobs’ health and how Apple handled the announcement. Silicon Alley Insider then posted an updated saying that CNBC claims they have not banned Lyons. Then they posted an update saying a source close to the situation believes Lyons has been banned.

Jesus Diaz at Gizmodo, apparently not at all concerned about Apple’s stock price or its shareholders, ran an article yesterday in which a “source” that has been “100% correct before” suggested the real reason Steve Jobs is not speaking at the Macworld Conference and Expo keynote, and is pulling from Macworld Expo forever and ever and ever, is because Jobs’ health has been “rapidly declining.” Later that day, Jim Goldman at CNBC donned his tights and headed down to the ring for the big Mac Web cage match.

Digg co-founder Kevin Rose practiced a slick bit of nerdvoyance with his predictions for the Apple “Let’s Rock” event. Not only did Rose get every “prediction” right, he also had leaked product photos. The gang at Gizmodo figure that Apple’s looking to plug some leaks right about now, as Rose obviously had inside info.

Someone, someone was looking up the word “observe”, and found out that the example uses the character, “wheelchair dude.” As a loyal Apple fanboy, I have to admit that I haven’t heard of this, “dude.” Gizmodo is very curious about this character, and has a few questions.
