I think they're saying it was more experiment than hoax. It worked, it's got us lot taking.

Fair enough, it wasn't just a silly joke it was a social media experiment.

Hundreds of individuals or hundreds of tweets (made by a very small number of individuals)?

Either way I don't think think that the marketing department from Apple will be contacting them for tips on promotion!

I was driving to the Glasgow bill when this broke and in the space of 45 minutes a numpty like me got 26 calls and 32 texts.
Some were from posters on here some from people in the business. None from casual fans.
I dont do twatter or whatever it is. Too old wrong generation.

The original vague tweet by Kugan seemed to have the desired effect but the whole thing seemed to loose steam once the Rhodes video came out. No disrespect to Rhodes but to the casual fans who were expecting a household name like Hatton or Calzache it was something of an anti-climax.
