The anticipated iPhone 3G S was released on Friday and many users are still having delays activating their new phones.
Apple today, is trying to make amends for the delays, and is giving all users that are still experiencing the problems a $30 USD iTunes gift card for the "the inconvenience this delay has caused."
Here is the full email customers received:
Dear Apple Customer,

Please read the original article before posting your comments.
While it's nice that Apple is doing anything at all, their apologies would start to ring hollow by now if I were an Iphone customer. I mean this same crap happens every time an updated phone is released. Sorry, but there's no good excuse for being unprepared as they are surely aware that millions of people are gonna want tp purchase this thing and will probably try to activate it once it's in their hands. Thank goodness I've never bought an Iphone.
If you're LOL has anything to do with sitting back and watching all the people who fall for this crap every year as no one seems to be able to excercise any patience or self control then I concur with your remark. Unlike the thousands of other iditos out there, I don't have to be the first to own a new Iphone or the newest gaming console. It's certainly inexcusable to have this current activation problem, just as it was for Sony to have shortages of PS3's when they camne out. But if people are going to continue to let companies screw them over like this then I guess they're getting what they deserve and I';ll be sitting at my computer or T.V screen laughing myself silly as they whine and cry about their problems.

Well said and i agree on all points. I never understood the mentality of "I have to be the first to buy this." I 'll always wait for the price to go down and for all the bugs to get fixed before i buy.
Those who bought the Iphone for 600.00 were the first ones to complain when the price dropped. Those stupid enough to spend that kind of money on a lousey phone are stupid enough to get screwed.
Yet all these products that screw the customers or are way overpriced sell like hotcakes.

Quote:st00pid people. Don't use AT&T but a real carrier like T-Mobile (who DO support the iPhone). If you still have the $9.95 Internet plan you can hack it to be an unlimited T-Mob data plan :D
