No, he does have insane access. he tends to get earlier and more accurate scoops than the tech blogs. Sometimes dropping it nonchalantly in the comments of a linked list entry, ex:

As I recall it, no one was running any rumors about a display res like that at the time Gruber called it, or the front-facing camera.
And he gets scoops on things that are not happening, despite reports from other tech blogs, just as often (as in this example). If you did some digging, you'd find that his source was right almost every time.
- zyb09 16y agoGizmodo leaked the whole thing in january.. everyone knew about the display, cpu and front-facing camera.
- gjm11 16y agoLink? (I can't find any such thing with Google. That may merely indicate my ineptitude or a shortcoming in Google's indexing or searching. I didn't have the patience to look through every article in Gizmodo's archives for that month.)
- kristofferR 16y agoIf you're talking about the bar leak, that happened in April.
- zyb09 16y agooh you're right, guess he did have some inside knowledge afterall.
