Oh sure. Ive been vocal about some ball droppings and a CA tax thing.

But I don't buy a product by a company I vocally dislike so I can shit all over it such as yourself.

You sit in thread thinking your Sherlock Holmes running your phone through "tests" as I'd your some self appointed tech writer searching for problems and trying to recreate them.

The instant someone finds some little issue with an apple product there you are posting about it as if it's the apocalypse. Blowing shit out of proportion.

Yeah, I think you get to retain the whiniest little bitch title. You can claim your tiara in Cupertino, cupcake.

I'll go ahead and nominate you for whiniest little girl in this thread for all the examples below and how you whine about everyone else whining.

I still think I want one... I would use a case anyway. But the guy who was supposed to buy my BlackBerry backed out. Lame.

Wow so I'm using my 3GS right now because the 4 is being charged right now.

Man this display is no good at all!
It's like going from a bluray back to a VHS tape!

You know before I thought this display was fine and the new one on the 4 wasn't going to be that much of a difference, but no it's a big difference.

really?? i know 4 is superb and all.. but when i switched back to 3GS, i thought it wasn't as bad as i thought...

say.. if iphone 4 was only 3GS + retina, i don't think i'd buy it.. would be my input...??

Maybe you weren't using the 4 enough.

Everything just looks blurrier and more jaggies.

And the smaller fonts are harder to read, really have to zoom to see it, where on the 4 I can get away without zooming in

yea the difference is clearly there

and yes, after seeing retina display, you'd have to zoom in on 3GS to read stuff

but it's still not as bad as i expected coming back from 4

Is it going to be worth the time to convert all my vids (Top Gear eps, mainly) to the new resolution?

so just curious...

what is the return policy on the phones?

i've had mine less than a week, but am seriously considering waiting like a week for the white phone..
not a big deal, but if i can make the swap hassle free why not?


so far i've read that you have 30 days...
there is a $35 restocking fee on all devices and 10% fee on iphone returns...

Yohan: Hi, I cam to return this
APPLE: Okay, what's wrong with it?
Yohan: I'm just not satisfied with it.
APPLE: Okay
(checking email and transaction... after 1 minute)
APPLE: You're all set


i mean.. serisouly.. they didn't open the box to check the content (though i guess they have way to trace back in the future if anything went wrong)


as to the policy, i believe 30 days and no physical damage

So I turned on push notification on some apps (always had them off), useful but very interrupting of what you're doing.

Possibility. Will have to call and see where I could, and when. Otherwise, I'll make sure my sheet is signed for tomorrow.
