Lol this is so funny. Now apple is turning this around and putting the blame on the service provider who they where in partnership for years lol. Man this guy just won't admit the truth.

This is why you don't become an early adopter with Apple. I think every CE device they've released in the past has always been flawed and/or greatly improved upon with it's successor. iPod, iPad, iPhone, etc.
Likewise the 3rd iteration seems like a minimal upgrade at best and a money grab.

yeah Apple has been screwing up really bad lately. maybe they will test their products thoroughly before they release them to market. seriously. dont you think it would of been cheaper to make that metal band around the phone out of composite plastic rather then pressing metal? apple is so stupid. 2ndly why so much glass? the back has glass and the front. u only need it on the front. that phone is delicate like a chandelier, except you put it in your pocket. Apple you fail miserably.

So what about getting a free case for those who have supposedly "reception problems". If they can do this and waive a simple restocking fee, there's no reason whatsoever that they can give the case for free. It's shit like this that burns me up about companies like Apple. Very annoying, but that's reality unfortunately.

They tried testing their products; but the testers kept leaving them in bars...oh, and they tested them in cases that made them look like iphone 3gs units. Way to go apple; the case you used to disguise your phones serves to disguise a problem with the phones, and then you leaked two of the phones anyway, making the disguises completely pointless.
At least that is sort of explainable...now how do they account for the fact that half of the units came with yellow splotches on the screen, and all of them have a yellowed look to anything that is white? Surely some of the test units must have gone into testing within a few hours of being built; didn't they ever see splotches on these screens?
