The Verizon iPhone 4

Apple invited Gruber as press to the iPhone 4 Antennagate conference last year. He was also invited to the opening of the Philly Apple Store. Apple isn't the only one reaching out to Gruber — Google sent him a Nexus S for review as well (which I don't think he ever got around to writing).

But Grubber was not invited to the Verizon iPhone announcement. https://twitter.com/gruber/status/24937327675580416

That was Verizon's event and they sent out the invites.

Which was actually an Apple Event in disguise. Gizmodo, Ryan Block and Leo Laporte were not invited.

Macworld wasn't invited to Verizon's iPhone event too.

My (uneducated) guess is that Verizon handled the event, but Apple passed along a blacklist to Verizon.
