"Motorola's next generation cell phone? They haven't said whose battery they are going to use. We know whose battery they're going to use - all kinds of great things are coming for Valence." My dictionary defines prediction as "to state what one BELIEVES will happen." Wolanchuk did not phrase the above as his BELIEF, or his PREDICTION. Wolanchuk stated that he KNEW whose battery they would use. Then in the following sentence he strongly implied that the battery would be Valence's. This was not a prediction (his belief), but a claim of knowledge of a factual circumstance. The fact that it was a claim of knowledge, plus the fact that it was not true, makes it a lie, not an erroneous prediction. My question to Wolanchuk is whether HE made up the lie, or whether he was fed the lie by someone else.
