With almost 1,000 diggs yesterday, the allegedly leaked iPhone OSX map architecture was a great April Fool’s hoax from joker Charles Ying. Did you fall for it? We know we pretty much did! The prank was awesomely subtle in its execution, with only a Unix timestamp of April 1 revealing the hoax.

You sure got us good, guys!
