You don't think Apple was trolling through all the forums after the gizmodo story leaked. I still think they knew even before this article but how much more do I have to show before we all agree that they knew before the release date?
I am not saying they did not know about it before the release date..but I am saying it is possible for them to not to have known about it till already after they manufactured them in bulk...at that point there is no turning back for a company....similar to what happened with Windows ME...M$ played dumb saying no there is no memory leak issue...even though you can tell there was cause after opening paint brush your pc would slow down to a crawl (They also forced manufacturers not to sell the older OS and ONLY have ME)...and after a long time they finally admitted to the bug..and they have a working fix..that fix being buying windows XP, as a fix for ME was impossible....


But to say Apple knew about this when they initial designed the product is a stretch...
