Jim,
I would join in and help you out BUT why bother?
Seriously, why bother? We can't change minds and won't.

The other day, while in Ft. Worth, I went to James' house (Croatan).
I could swear there were 8 to 10 of us there, at least.
I think all but one had an iPhone on the the table.

What does that mean?
Heck if I know other than if it sucked that badly, why would 9 out of 10 be so happy with them?

Hmmmm...................

I travel a whole lot.
I swear I am seeing twice as many iPhones now than Crackberries.
There was a time that was the opposite but not anymore.
What does that mean?
Heck if I know other than if it sucked that badly, why would so many more of them be out there now visibly to me than Crackberries or Droids or whatever?

Hmmmm....................

Me? I love mine.
Can't wait for the new one in the summer and the 4.0 system that will allow multitasking (more advanced that leaves files open unlike the one available now), folders for apps, and on and on.

It is just the blind apple faithful Carlos that will buy any and every piece of sh*t the company puts out!


Hell Moses, you should see how many Apple products Carlos destroys, and he is still hanging with them! lol.

And you really couldn't buy apple care for your phone even though it was purchased at full price? I would understand if they replaced the phone because you had apple care that the warranty wouldn't start over, but you paid $199 for another phone... it doesn't make sense that if you purchased a new device that you couldn't get apple care for it.

You mean Apple Care? That only works from the original purchase date, so it would have been useless to me. Replacements don't work under Apple Care.

It does not matter how many apps are out there. Apps that I need are the only ones that are relevent. I'd rather have a phone that is durable like Motorola makes than play Pac Man.

Moses,
Luck varies of course but mine, my son's, and everyone else I know that has one has not had any issues with them.
I know that doesn't console you any but other than you, I really don't know anyone that has a negative to say about an iPhone.
They are neat, useful toys.
I would be lost without mine.

No not apple care. There are third party providers who offer insurance for
the iPhone at reasonable rates, and the policies cover
accidental physical damage as well, eg a shattered screen from dropping it

I've had winmo phones bb's and now the iPhone IMO the
iPhone is better than any of the
other options out there but that's just me. For
those who can't get used to the idea of no having a physical keyboard you'd better get used to it. Today, tomorrow, or 3 years from now they ARE goi g away eventually. Haven you ever seen star trek, LOL

I've gotten to
the
point where I can type far faster on
my
iPhone then I ever could on a blackberry

My I-touch is a piece because it will not recognize wireless networks and when i call apple they say i will have to pay for a new one b/c the warranty is out even though it was bought from apple less than a year before i called them. No. 2 most of the apps on it forceclose and when i try to do anything except play music it forcecloses and shuts off. When it comes to playing music it does a heck of a job but thats not why i got it. Reference the I-phone being insurable now this is news to me as my father just got one less than a month ago and at that point it was still un-insurable. By un-insurable i mnean against physical damage. I am aware that you can insure against product malfunctions but thats what a warranty should cover. Please let me know if you can now insure for accidental physical damage as it is news to me so i can stop telling "Lies". And i dont mean by putting it under your homeowners umbrella coverage which is exactly what AT&T told me i would have to do. By all means i am not being a smartass just stating what i have been told directly from apple and AT&T. Again please let me know if this has changed. BTW i do know that apple has WAY more apps, but droid also has more than anyone will ever need.

Did you provide it to them before the warranty expired?
If you did, doubt they would not honor it.
If they didn't, sounds like you have a small claims filing that would get you to recover your costs for court and invoke your warranty for you.
If you didn't provide it to them before the year for repairs, well, a warranty is just that and if the year expired, there is no coverage. Not different than with a much, much more expensive purchase of a car.

The ipod was recieved with the purchase of a macbook, an incentive type thing. When i called them they said that the ipod was an old model and warranty had expired. My thoughts are that they had a ton of old stock and shipped those out, could be wrong who knows. Not that worried about it but it was just the fact of the matter that put a bad taste in my mouth about the touch's. Mind you this was a Gen 1. I have never ever had any problems with my new Nano.
