web.mac.com — From the mysterious person who posted a picture of a supposed new iPod has come out with a video showing the making of the photo that turned out to be fake. Here it is at a mirrored site, as the original link broke down.

"Maybe this is a re-creation of how he made the first fake, anyone think of that? aside from some obvious variances most of it is dead on ..My guess is that the original photo IS fake, and that the same guy who faked it, re-did it and recorded the steps to show how it was done.. I doubt he had really expected it would blow up to be as big as it was and record the process the first time."The guy's ipod that he used to make this video has a much different ratio than the one in the photo, i dont think that that is dead on.

Anyone else notice that the black squiggle he draws to place in the bottom corner looks nothing like the one in the original photo?

Any hoax that makes fools out of fanboys is alright with me.

I think that it's a clever coverup by apple to keep us from thinking that this is actually what they are making.... where are my pills...

Great idea, and believable. But you gotta admit that the photoshop wasnt all that complex. Anyone could have dont it, he did it first though, and he deserves the credit, nice job man.
