Update On Iphone (For The Not Yet Convinced Morons)

If you've already bought the phone... well... return it! ...'coz what you're about to read, is going to hurt - as if my last entry wasn't enough to convince you about this bad bad product.

Remember how I mentioned that when the battery of your Iphone dies, you'd have to send it back to the manufacturer to get it 'serviced'(?) unless you want to own a doorstop while continuing to pay the evil trolls at AT&T until your 2-year contract expires!?! Well, check out this article here from Gizmodo. It says that the Iphone lasts about 300-400 charges and once that's done, you have to pay a total of $85.95 (shipping included) to get it 'replaced'. If that's not bad enough, all the information on your phone will not be restored! ...still want an Iphone?!
And since you won't have a phone while the battery is being replaced, that would be the perfect time for that Antarctica vacation you've always been planning.

...then I also found out that the Bluetooth on the Iphone does not have full Bluetooth capabilities. Surprise surprise! Other than being able to use that silly looking Bluetooth earphones with the Iphone, that's as much as you can do with the Bluetooth feature it provides! Basically, you're buying a fridge that comes with a freezer but doesn't freeze LOL! Dumbass! So no sharing of files via Bluetooth from phone to phone, phone to computer. Hmmm...

Funny isn't it - to people like me who never did and still don't want an Iphone!? All I can say is, if you're still looking for a cellphone to get, buy a Nokia N-95! You won't regret it. No, Nokia is NOT paying me to say this lol. Plus you'd be the envy of smart people in the know lol.

Apple should have identified all these before they launch the iPhone...

I think this is Apple's way of coming up with a relatively better and improved product come Christmas rush. Apple users are puppets. Suckers!
