JR is up to something
gizmodo has a new article up showing photos of the MacBook Pro that's set to be released tomorrow. What's even more interesting than the image is the metadata in the exif data of the image.

The image was taken by an iPhone today at 11:01pm at 37°19.39'N 122°0.89'W. I predict that no ice cream will be served in that vicinity tomorrow. Anyone know why an uncrated pre-announcement MacBook Pro would be there?
This is partly a bit of random sleuthing and partly a warning. If you use your iPhone to take pictures of things you're not supposed to be taking pictures of, be sure to scrub the exif data. Alternatively, you can leak it to engadget whose editors appear to be more careful about scrubbing for you.
