An Apple engineer walks into a bar with a prototype iPhone with a front facing camera, better batteries and a smaller screen, then exits the bar, leaving the phone behind.
There is no punch line so don't hold your breath.
Turns out the phone is the next generation from Apple, still in development. Whether it was acci8dentally left on the bar stool or planted there as a marketing ploy by Apple remains to be seen.
Needless to say, Twitter is abuzz....
