Apple, AT&T Sued Over iPhone 4 Antennas
bannable writes "Apple has been accused of violation of the Federal Communications Act, three counts of products liability related to negligence, defect in design and breach of implied warranty, intentional and negligent misrepresentation, fraud by concealment, unfair business practices and more. 'The iPhone 4 manifests design and manufacturing defects that were known to Defendants before it was released which were not disclosed to consumers, namely, a connection problem caused by the iPhone 4's antenna configuration that makes it difficult or impossible to maintain a connection to AT&T's network,' the California complaint reads."
"Affect" is a word, so it is not misspelled. The correct word in that position is "effect," thus causing a grammatical error instead of a spelling error.
I dated a lawyer once, she was hot. But crazy, evil, I don't know. Maybe a bit detached because of her daily environment. But she worked hard, weeks would pass and she'd totally zone out those weeks focussed on her work until late in the night to defend her clients. (for me totally acceptable that such sacrifice is compensated accordingly).
Honestly, to me it was too much. Her coming home "my client just got jailed, I told him to send this form and such before that date. He neglected it, so it's his own faulth." and shrugged it off going about her business while it stuck on me.
For me it seemed to be much more of a deal for someone to "lose his liberties" (disregarding what they've done) and it made me very uncomfortable with the idea.
But it's a whole different aspect of law, in your example, it's doing what it's supposed to do. Same as the time I got convicted for speeding; I was at faulth, I accepted the sentence.
I think we can keep recursing like this until someone returns 1
This will not affect Apple's sales, nor will it have any effect on Apple's sales.
Exactly. In my own defense, I very rarely get this wrong so I can only claim temporary lingual insanity.

so WHO WAS PHONE?
You're cleaver use of "facepalm oil" made me think of my trusty Palm Pre+. It has no antenna problems, I have yet to have a dropped call at all. The card system navigation on the true multitasking WebOS is simply amazing. 16gb provides enough ram for me and it has a very good 3 megapix camera. I am even synchronizing my old Palm Agendus data directly from my PC to the phone and using the data to dial directly when on the road or at a restaurant with Wifi and Skype. The wonderful little thing even acts a a router with up to five computers. So we can link up 5 computers at a remote location and they can from an Intranet with drag and drop to each other's machine. I browse my calendar while talking on a headset to a client. Any program that will run on the Web runs on the phone. This is only a part of it. Who needs a crappy Iphone? People should just throw it in the garbage and start over, they would fall in love with something like the Pre!
