Typical Apple smugness.

"It's not the phone, it's you, you unsophisticated little twerp. Only imbeciles hold it that way."

New Feature! Instead of having to tell your wife/gf you are going into a tunnel you just need to hold the phone this way and the call will drop!

I don't know of any other company where the head honcho can effectively call their customers stupid and the customers keep coming back to buy more stuff.

Doctor it hurts when I laugh. Well, don't laugh then.

A blonde patient patient comes in and the doctor asks where it hurts. She touches her arm and says, "here". Then she touches her other arm, chest, legs, head, nose, ears and stomach, "here, here, here, here, here, here, here, and here".

"Doctor, what is wrong with me?"

"Your finger is broken"

You would think that people would have eventually caught on but the American public still buys anything with a shiny apple on it.

Steve Jobs has always been a bit of a douche. Still, I've never had calls drop on my iPhone 3G, like a lot of Americans complain about. AT&T is half the crap equation.

Did they seriously not do enough testing with this or did they just say "fuck it, they'll love it no matter what" when they saw there was a problem?

They said f-it as they know anything they print will be gold.

I tried this today on a coworkers phone. She was so happy to show off her new iphone, so I gave her an "ohhhhhh nice" and asked to see it. First thing I noticed was she had 5 full bars on 3G while we were deep in the middle of a building. Then I remembered reading about this neat little feature, so I wrapped my hand around the bottom of the phone... 1 bar. Doh!

I told her it's not a problem since she's a woman and doesn't have to worry about looking gay by holding the phone using her middle finger and thumb whilst sticking out her pinkie. But guys will! :awe:

Can you buy it unlocked and get full function on T-mobile?
