    Is there a smoke detector app??

    The problems continue for troubled iPhone



    The problems just keep on mounting for the seemingly unshakeable Apple as its latest smartphone handset, the iPhone 4 encounters further issues as users report cases of defective USB ports catching fire.

    The latest Apple iPhone has been riddled with issues since its launch at the end of June such as yellowing screens, easily broken displays and the now infamous signal loss scandal that sees reception drop to nothing when the phone is held in a standard manner that covers the lower left corner.


    Possibly the most worrying and certainly most dangerous of the iPhone 4’s growing list of problems, however, this new USB fault has left at least one owner with just a mangled mass of melted plastic and distorted metal. Boy Genius Report even managed to snap a picture of the iPhone that suffered due to the faulty USB connections.

    As well as losing his treasured Apple smartphone, the faulty iPhone 4 owner, who claims all he did was plug the cable in to charge his phone before the connection caught fire, was left with a slightly burned hand.

    Having attempting to return his faulty and dangerous iPhone to the Apple store, the customer was turned away without a new handset despite Apple confirming that the damage had been caused by a faulty USB port, as the store was unsurprisingly out of stock.

    Those stories are all based on a single article based on an anonymous user photo submission in a blog of dubious reputation. Wouldn't place too much weight on that, sounds fishy/fake to me.

    I'm a little confused with my 3 contract- I got my iphone 4 32g on day of release from Apple shop and signed up for 24 months 900 mins etc.. so £35 a month

    A bill has come and a seperate letter stating detals of my contract 900 mins 5000 texts 1gb data £23 a month including £3 discount, I was an existing 3 customer but I'm sure this wasn't/isn't recognised anyway- Anyone else had this?

    So my first bill to be taken by dd for the period 24 June to 31 July is £24.50!

    hold on.
    you bought sim free from Apple?
    then took out a 24 month contract?

    Just off the phone to my local Tesco. He said they have 90 names on their waiting list and aren't adding anymore but that they are starting to get much more regular stock as Apple are picking up on it. He said within less than a month it should be very easy to get one from them. Fingers crossed!

    He also said the White ones will be released either this month or next, not very specific!

    Think Superjules meant that they signed up to a Three contract in store as Apple are now connecting contracts to Three.
