DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE UNTIL YOU SEE MY YouTube VIDEO. Type in "RoyFromTexas" and watch NO BARS IN TEXAS.
AT&T WILL NOT GIVE YOU A REFUND. They say "send it back to Apple (good luck) Apple won't even talk to you and they are impossible to contact about this.
My wife and I bought two iPhones on 10-14-08. Hers works OK except the battery (in the stand-by mode) will die in 6 hours and the phone turns itself off.
My problem, NO BARS, can best be seen and described on my YouTube video. Type in my moniker, RoyFromTexas and look for my video entitled "NO BARS IN TEXAS."
I live a little over a mile from the cell phone tower, and my iPhone shows "NO SERVICE." An AT&T phone rep in Lubbock, Texas told me "You live in a "fringe-area, I'm sorry, there isn't ANYTHING I can do for you because you are out-of-area." I've had service with them (previously Cingular) for more than 6 years, GIVE ME A BREAK!
YOU WILL NOT GET A REFUND FROM AT&T... APPLE IS NOT ANSWERING THEIR PHONES, AND THERE ARE SEVERAL CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS.
SAVE YOURSELF SOME GRIEF, LET THE "DUST SETTLE" then go out and buy an iPhone 3G. It might be a GREAT PHONE in a couple of months when they get the new chip installed. UNTIL THEN, STAY AWAY FROM THIS PHONE.
