Nano iPhone... or PR stunt?

In a speculative story lasting just seven sentences, the Daily Mail tells us about the impending iPhone nano - possibly with a touchscreen on the front and scrollwheel on the back. Who is the unnamed "industry source" behind the prediction? Judging by the canny use of the phrase "the iPhone 3G has been the fastest-selling phone ever in the UK", it sounds like a flack from O2 doing everything possible to keep their message in the papers. Job done?

Update: It's incensed Techcrunch UK's Mike Butcher so much that he thinks this sick filth should be banned... from Techmeme at least.
