Yes, you just did, just then! I was suprised, except it is a friday, and there are fewer posts on a friday. I thought that demonstrating the other phones was a good idea, especially the droid and the windows phone as both google and microsoft have said about them not needing to be held in a special way. Other than that, not much that would either put me off or encourage me to get an iPhone 4. I will get one at christmas either way -- Woody www.alienrat.com

I will get one at christmas either way Christmas sounds about the right time, clear frosty skies and a Crimble tree to use an signal booster, plus too many drinks to hold the phone to tight.... On a serious note there are clearly issues, Apple has had a wake up call, the customer has a voice which can and should be heard..... -- Mike Peace and Happiness is a State of Mind....

Good plans, although my main concern is that that is when my contract runs out! Also i want a white one. > On a serious note there are clearly issues, Apple has had a wake up > call, the customer has a voice which can and should be heard..... I don't think it really matters whether there are issues or not (though there clearly are). If the public believe there are issues, it can be just as bad, and just providing a comment of 'don't hold it that way' may be funny, but doesn't go down well. -- Woody www.alienrat.com

I am thinking that Apple will quietly do a modification inside the phone and "fix" the problem, rumours have it they are already looking at this, waiting a few months will be a plus..... -- Mike Peace and Happiness is a State of Mind.... |
