I agree with some of the others on here. I have used Apple products for many many years, but i am slowly gravitating away from them. I am really loving Droid. Apple is just way too expensive and yes is it turning into a monopoly which is beginning to leave a bad taste in my mouth. I was going to get an iPad, but im gonna wait and see what others are going to come out. i would LOVE to get my hands on Germany’s WePad with Droid OS! Its just the same ole song with Apple. You go buy a product. You spend your savings on it. They re-release the same product a month later with faster this, and faster that and more this and more that, when all they had to do was to release that in the first place! They’re laughing all the way to the bank with my money. Most folks end up listing their apple product online to sell, just to get the next model. Waste O’ Waste of money!!! Just tired of the game. I’ve actually started using Windows 7, although i still use my older macs..hahahahahahaaa!

When Apple is back to under $20 per share then let’s revisit their “little blunder.”

“Having a cutting edge phone that every once in a while drops calls when held in a certain wonky manner is, thankfully, a miniscule issue in comparison.”
Really? I would imagine that device which drops calls because of the manner in which it is held isn’t exactly “a cutting edge phone”. Besides, what is the point of having a state of the art phone which is unable to fulfil its most basic function effectively.

Ive been an Apple afficianado since mid 90′s…

Never thought Id say it but Im getting turned off by Apple. The rotten Apple metaphor is true.

Im dissappointed. I also wont get on the iOS iPhone band wagon after such a poor experience with my iPhone(s)

It is a minor glitch on a superior product. I couldn’t agree with the article more. Apple missed the PR boat this time around. And at a time competitors are itching to get an edge.

GLK
Apple created the PC where does this guy get his info LoL

Ive liked apple products for years do i own any NO
Reason for this Apple is too proprietary to closed mouth and way over priced, Always has been always will be unless something severe happens.
This has been a company that has been on the brink of disaster since the day they decided to hide problems decades ago.
They misinform mfgs, customers and the markets they sell there products.
Is it hard to believe that they attempted to deceive all of there iphone customers the way they have
absolutely Not!

If Apple was so smart, they would never have gone with AT&T as their only source of air time. AT&T is a very lame cell phone carrier. Dropped calls, rude and indifferent customer “service” staff are just a few of the many reasons one should not spend a dime with AT&T.

I’d be surprised if AT&T is still in the cell phone business in 3-5 years. Their system is way behind the times, they are NOT spending much if any money to build up their infrastructure. If they’d spend only half of what they do to try to fight Verizon in their ads, they might be able to try to make improvements in their system. But they won’t. AT&T is that incompetent.

Apple/Jobs attitude towards it’s customers is awful. Think back about the crap that Apple/iPhone has done to customers since iPhone first went on the market.

If there are idiots out there willing to put up with extremely bad service by AT&T, and Mr. Jobs arrogant attitude to his iPhone customers, so be it.
