by the way they actually hold the patent application for a product called the iglove ! http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/01/02/apple_glove_patent/ so they can speed up the production and make more money by killing two birds with one stone
Cool. Not only can you make calls on it, you can pretend to moon walk like Michael Jackson.0 -
I purchased my iPhone from Orange on release day and have been having these signal issues ever since (I haven't taken it back yet as I was waiting to see if Apple released a fix).
Would I be able to return the phone and cancel the contract since I feel there is a fault which is causing the signal to drop?0 -
woo hoo, i was actually sat in my Tesco store getting my brand new iphone4 this evening as Steve jobs was making his speech, return home to find out I can get a free bumper too.....
I was going to go to my Apple store tomorrow to get a bumper anyway, will it be manic now with everyone ghetting their free one?
how do you get your free one?0 -

Sale of Goods Act would say that you can return the iPhone as "not fit for purpose", but you'll probably have to quote the Act and mention what Steve Jobs said today.dustystar02 wrote: »woo hoo, i was actually sat in my Tesco store getting my brand new iphone4 this evening as Steve jobs was making his speech, return home to find out I can get a free bumper too.....

Go to Apple, buy a bumper and then apply for a refund. They said they would supply details of how to do this later.In the beginning, the universe was created. This made a lot of people very angry and was widely regarded as a bad move.The late, great, Douglas Adams.0 -
0.55% of all iPhone customers have called AppleCare with an antenna issue.
Come off it; how many people were waiting to see what the new update would do to fix the problem?
I'd be more interested to see how many people will now take up the "return within 30 days" offer.
Don't get me wrong; I still fully intend to get an iPhone but I do object to misleading and pointless statistics.In the beginning, the universe was created. This made a lot of people very angry and was widely regarded as a bad move.The late, great, Douglas Adams.0 -
The iphone 4 is great, then again so was the old iphone. As much as I hate Apple for the way they have people queuing up like animals to buy these things (thanks to the advertising hype), I don't think there is anything to touch the iphone.
My friend has a new HTC with Android and to be honest it's terrible compared to even my old iphone 3G. The menus don't scroll as well and it just feels like a poor immitation!0 -
I think the free bumper or full refund offer seems fair enough really, Apple were never going to recall. I'm a bit dissapointed with the white Iphone "news" though, so it's gone from "second half of July" to "end of July"!? Does this mean it will be available for pre order before then? Will it be in shops on the 30th? (if 30th is the precise date of release) What's this "limited quantities" about too? So for someone like me who is waiting for the white on contract from Tesco it could be another month or 2 months or god knows how long!? Suppose it all depends if the shope already have stock of the white ready to sell but I think that is very unlikely, I sense a long wait............0

Might be some refurbished iPhones for sale if lots of people return them!0

In fact I just heard a reporter saying on Sky News that after this press coference, people will not be returning their iPhones. Users are either not bothered about the problem or don't experience it. So I do believe the 0.55% stat and I honestly don't think there'll be a massive wave of people returning their phones.0
