Apple’s Deceptive iPhone Advertising 

,----[ Quote ]
| Apple’s attempt to portray the iPhone 3G experience as just as fast as a real 
| computer hooked up to the real internet is a shameful demonstration of 
| flat-out fakery.

Rotten hardware core in Apple's iPhone 3G

,----[ Quote ]
| The news that the iPhone 3G could be suffering from 3G reception issues due 
| to faulty hardware, which apparently can't be fixed by a firmware update, has 
| flashed across the web. The debate now rages: who is right?

Maybe Steve should send out some people to police bloggers and control public
perception.


Last month:

Apple + ActiveSync is eating email on my iPhone: iCrap?

,----[ Quote ]
| I'm a huge Apple fan. Today, however, I couldn't be more disappointed. I keep
| seeing pretty, shiny things...and then finding out they're iCrap underneath.

iTunes Store "Unavailable": This iPod Touch Owner is Stuck in Update Limbo

,----[ Quote ]
| I'm not alone. I've been able to find plenty of iPod Touch, first-gen iPhone,
| and new iPhone 3G owners just like me stuck in the same boat. For over 8
| hours I've been unable to update my iPod Touch because the Apple iTunes
| Store's servers are overwhelmed.

iPhone 3G Frenzy Causes Glitch

,----[ Quote ]
| Across the world they gathered and waited like little children hoping to see
| Santa at the local shopping mall, only to be disappointed and find what many
| had expected on opening day. It wasn't exactly a lump of coal, but, Apple's
| much coveted slick new 3G device was not only in short supply, but in many
| locations, there were problems with getting the phone to actually work.

| "It's very much like that, but sometimes the engineers are - yeah, no,
| I think it's very similar, very similar. Sometimes the engineers are
| true artists and really care what they're doing, doing a really great
| job. Although, I don't know how much I can even say that because the
| big companies, Microsoft, Apple and AOL, they tend to turn out the
| crappiest products, you know, software-wise. The ones that have the
| most bugs, the most items that are supposedly in there but don't work.
| The most things that are left out because they aren't finished. The most
| things that are inconsistent with the way they did their last program. I
| get the worst, worst software almost always from Apple."
