Al Gore in attendance at WWDC; Solar iPhone power confirmed?
30 comments
Filed in Apple, Handsets, Opinions, Rumors

Al Gore has been spotted in the VIP area at the WWDC keynote address. Logical conclusion: the rumored solar power for the new iPhone must be confirmed. Ok, so we’re probably completely full of it, but we have heard that Mr. Gore won’t go within 30 feet of anything that doesn’t draw its juice from a renewable energy source. Any bets on whether Gore will be invited up on stage to participate?

Yes, let’s not allow the historical fact of Gore’s authoring of “High Performance Computing and Communication Act of 1991″ get into the way of your seething bile posted above.

They won’t let him on the stage. Al will probably go into a global warming/manbearpig rant.

Algore!? Wow. What a travesty. I wonder if El Jobso knows that Algore believes in the myth of global warming and talks to trees? A man is known by the company he keeps … and from the appearance of Algore, that gives me credence to distrust Steve Jobs.

(On that note, did Steve invite Reverend Wright or Obama? Or did he snub both of them?)

Al Gore is on Apple’s Board of Directors, so it’s quite understandable that he will be present.

I went on Apple’s website to check out some information on a Mac Book Pro and I found out that their shop is unavailable. Tried to buy an iPhone, but the shop still is unavailable. Cannot wait for the new iPhone to launch. Have a look here:

Gore will gravitate to a live Camera MUCH quicker than the earth is gravitating to the Sun. It’s funny that he thinks that he’s still significant!

@Lance: Glad you approve of $4-5/Gal gas … 20-year record-high unemployment … unending war based upon nonexistent, imaginative intelligence… >4000 US service members dead (so far) … >1,000,000 Iraqi deaths (so far)… Goodie on you! Sure beats having to endure the smugness of Gore over the past 8 years, eh?
Georgie (& Dick/Rice/Rumsfeld/Wolfowitz/Perle/Project For A New American Century/et al) put the _Duh_ in Dubya.

AlGore the eco-politician was told the new iPhone would be a hybrid running on solar, bio-diesel and hot air! AlGore has plenty of hot air at least when he isn’t burning up thousands of gallons of jet fuel.

If that dolt Gore was Prez and Lieberman VP after 9/11, they’d have attacked Afganistan and Iraq too.
Lieberman still is pro Iraq war. No way that dope Gore would have brushed off his VP, the Moosad, the MI-5 and the CIA.
Plus, you blaming Bush for $4 gas? I thought you libs all said Iraq was “War for Oil” and the price would be 50 cents by now, LOL.
