Horror and Serenity of owning an iPhone

Owning an iPhone was sought after for a while now..age/gender/occupation seemed to not affect the desire for an iPhone. Nowadays you find almost every other person to have one in their hands- thinking that they are flaunting what they got. Seriously, i think its time that so many owning it makes it that much too ordinary, a cry far away from cool/happening.

What makes me feel iffy about the iPhone is the fact that its from Apple! I am a huge fan of a good product, a good branding( my ASUS S6F), and i dont necessarily have any complaints with Apple..not for now..but i am not sure if i will feel differently in near future :)   I am not OK with iTunes & iPhone updates… I am hugely disappointed in everything that goes on with new updates.

If you are wondering if there was any recent update with iPhone, then no. The last, latest update is from January 2008. Why am i talking about it now? That kinda answers the point I’m trying to make.

I dint install the January 2008 iPhone software update just because i dint want to have to go through all this. Its April 2008, and i am finding some free time and finally get to install the update. Guess what happens? MY IPHONE CANNOT CONNECT THROUGH EDGE!

I restarted it half a dozen times( Don’t try to even suggest the same thing again people!), cleared cache/cookies/history in safari, nothing is looking good right now.

“Safari can’t open the page because it can’t find the server.” is what i get when i am trying to access Safari ( any website, even Google.com). Same kind of messages about “cant find server” come up when i am trying to access my Mail, Weather etc. .
Just great..its Friday night, and all i got to do was install Firefox 3 beta and test it..just to realize that fireftp, greasemonkey don’t work with the ff3..and now my iPhone is acting crazy.
Now i have to make an appointment with apple store( i don’t like when i cant fix my gadgets, not especially when i paid $500+ on one). I could do other important things: laundry, dishes, bathe my cat, grocery shopping, applying for summer internship positions around Louisville..nope.

I bet i wont get anything done when my head is thinking of all possible googling i could do to figure out a fix for my iPhone.

 

I bet if there is a website that just is dedicated to users aggravated with Apple iPhone, it would be running out of bandwidth in a day!!! Dude, i hope i get my iPhone working asap!

  • I personally am very ambivalent about the iphone. I am thinking about getting it — but mainly it’s the hype that is pushing me too. It just seems very cool to own one, but I bet just like every other purhchase it gets old after a while. I’m online all day and I don’t know if I want a complicated phone. I ended up buying a krazr. I can call and text with ease and my work doesn’t follow me everywhere.

    Do you need cellphone batteries ? Spare batteries are always handy in case of emergency.
