         Yea they sure do. What I heard was that the firmware 
patch didn't solve the problem so I assumed it was already out.

       I'm just that good.

      How? I never said other phones don't have problems.

       Because Apple tries to hide the problem and then lie 
about the problem. I've seen other companies do this too but 
nobody does it in a flamboyant way like Apple. I mean you have 
to admit that it takes Apple a long time to admit there are 
problems with their hardware.

     Yea and I bet a lot of those people regret the purchase. 
Apple sales tend to taper off after the people who camp out at 
stores buy the initial stock. Also most of the iPhone 4 
purchases are people upgrading from their older iPhones. Some 
report said it was over 70% of iPhone 4 purchases were by people 
who owned previous iPhones. So I can see how Android can 
overtake them in a year or two given the gains by Android in the 
previous year.

       Great argument "but so what"... Priceless.
