When were they cagey about it? Not documenting something isn't equivalent to being cagey...

I would say it is quite cagey. I'd argue if your specs page says phone has 1.8GHz processor, it must deliver 1.8GHz otherwise it is faulty. If it does not live up to specs, and you (Apple) know about it, it is direct deception of the customer. I'd bet 100% court case victory for any complaining customer.

It does deliver 1.8 GHz though, but the window in which it can do that shrinks as your battery ages
