It's been a long rumored fanboi fantasy that Jonathan Ive, Apple's Senior VP of industrial design would be chosen by Steve Jobs as his aire-apparent once El Jobso finally decides to relinquish his throne. Ive is responsible for Apple's design leadership on the iMac, iPod and making the iPhone so very tech sexy.
All speculation aside, Jony's one-of-a-kind birthday cake photo sent a sudden, rushing chill up my spine when I read, "Happy Birthday Son". Too bad it's a fake! This photo spoof was emailed to us by a tipster claiming a bird's eye view at Jonathan's birthday bash. Jonathan Paul Ive (Jony) celebrates his birthday in the month of February as we later learned. We also noticed eight candles on the cake which was a bit odd.
Can you imagine the firestorm of speculation that may have blown up the interwebs around this hot bit of fanatic gossip? We were able to uncover the original photo for your viewing displeasure. Sorry Apple faithful... no Jobs cake for Jony.
I rate this birthday cake fake 4 nanos out of five for original thinking.
