The author tried real hard to paint this as some weird Kafkaesque attempt to keep the phone under-wraps, when really all it is is not being able to say your software is compatible with a device that isn't even out yet, and which you've done no testing on. The author comes out of this seeming slightly deranged.

I saw the humour in not being able to mention a publicly advertised and software compatible device. I'm honestly not sure how you think app development for new devices on _an existing platform_ works.

That you think so makes me think you seem "slight" deranged by Apples guideline process. That's some next level stupidity where that corporate line of "hey, we have emulators for it, which are intended for you to test, but you cannot mention this in an update" makes actually sense to someone.
