Apple Loses Another 4th-Gen iPhone

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the ok-now-its-funny dept.

An anonymous reader noted that Apple appears to have lost another of its 4th generation iPhones. This doesn't seem like the most efficient distribution mechanism, Steve. Wonder if the SWAT team will get called in.

    "Tethering is not currently offered in the U.S."

    Considering that is their largest user base at the moment.. it is relevant.

    Only if you like to manglerize your language.

    There is nothing wrong with the term burglarized. The base word is burglar. In England, we back-formed the verb burgle which essentially is based on "burglar" sounding like "burgler" (as in someone who burgles). This is simply a back formation. The Americans instead chose to form the verb burglarize to describe it by appending a fairly gereric suffix which seems to serve the purpose. Neither word is more or less correct than the other.

    And you'll note very caregully that "mangle" ends in "le". Your point would only have valididity if someone who mangled was a manglar.
