Marketing ploy. It's to either to raise hype or actually throw people off (bogus design).

Yup. They're really concerned about security, but they just happened to let a project engineer take a phone home and play with it anyway, because, hey, that's what you do with crucial prototypes, and it just happened to be picked up by somebody who can precisely identify every iteration of iphone and could tell it was a prototype... mmmhm.

The phone is approaching release date, it's not like it's in first development. It is due to be shown to the public in June, it is very late in the game of development and testing would be going full swing right now.

If the guy is who they say he is in the article, it would not be unheard of for him to have a development device. He is one of the most important guys in the phone being a phone.
