They did say that the iOS 6 requests were coming from Apple-owned IP addresses.

The screen resolution was not tied to the IP addresses because it showed up in Google Analytics.

Apple employees are capable of pranks.

Hypothetically, say I'm an Apple employee who plays a prank on a tech website whereby I raise expectations for the product we launch in a week above reality.

How long should I expect to keep my job for?

Depends who told you to do it and who set up your device.

If this is a prank it's not a very good one:

1. If there is a retina-display iPad 3 then they're faking something that actually exists.

2. If there isn't then they're setting up the unreleased product to not meet expectations.
