Spreading the N97 "news"

This story is funny, at least in my opinion.
Some guy posted his self-made photoshop designs for a phone in Forum Nokia, hoping for some Nokia attention. His design is pretty cool if you ask me, looks like a touch screen candidate for me, fitting in nicely with the N-series tradition.

Apparently, someone with limited English knowledge misunderstood the whole thing and spread the news that the new "Nokia N97 multimedia computer" had leaked. As things go with all these blogs and news sites around, Engadget Mobile soon spread the word - though they did mention that the source of this may not be to reliable.

Now imagine being the guy who made this design at home. He only wants to land a job with Nokia because he's into design and mobiles, and a few minutes later his pics are all over the net - and some people are actually drooling over the phone, loving it! Now that would make me feel good.

I guess with music it's not quite that easy. I can hardly claim the demos I have at home are from the new Jill Scott album. You'd have to be heavily hearing impaired to believe it. Please don't make me go into details why - I don't want to start crying.
