Yeah, I agree with that; in principle it is wrong, and as Apple I would be damn annoyed that the news got out. But because there really wasn't any lasting damage dealt, I think Apple's decision to file a lawsuit was much an overreaction.
Much better to find out how and who leaked the info in the first place, and how to prevent it in the future, seeing as, in this case, the "major blow" has already been made (i.e. the premature revealing of the mac and shuffle). Hence filing a lawsuit wouldn't achieve much; more likely to damage its reputation with its fans more than anything else.
