    Love to see the source of your FUD brick claim (I know you don't have one, no need to respond saying you are looking for it).

    Does your roommate complain about the oppressiveness of the app store? Of course not, not need to invest the time writing a reply.

    Except you are clueless and it is far and away the best mobile gaming platform on the market right now. No one is even remotely competitive. Cluelessness gets modded insightful as long as it is anti-apple.

    Just because you don't choose to play games other than traditional phone games on your iPhone does not mean they do not exist. I choose not to watch Oprah, she is still on TV (for now).

  5. Re:Not Surprising on Tethering Is Exhilarating (With the Nexus One) · · Score: 1

    How does it "make no sense". tethering would allow their largest consumers of network resources to conceivably use even more. If they turned on tethering tomorrow for a big fee, everyone would be as pissed as they are today. The evidence against your argument is overwhelming, the iPhone supports tethering on nearly every carrier except A&T....

    No way! It is an evil Apple Orwellian Plot thinger cause Jobs is the Devil!

    The true irony is that Apple is one of the few companies that would more likely than not ignore the little red sticker and replace your phone anyway.

    Apple is pretty consistently company-wide very forgiving about warranty service. This whole thread is ludicrous. See my own story about my battered out-of-warranty laptop being fixed for free further up.

  11. Re:Just another way for them to scam people... on iPhone's Liquid Sensors Can Be Triggered By Wintertime Use · · Score: 1

    This whole thread is amusing though, especially to anyone who has ever had to have apple fix something. While they are not perfect, they absolutely do not look for reasons to deny warranty service. I have never had a service encounter with Apple where I felt like they had any other goal than to get my computer working. Most recently they replaced a fan in my laptop two months after my warranty expired. Did I mention my two month out of warranty laptop has a huge dent in the express card slot from falling off the washing machine. Oh and it is missing one or two case screws.

    It is a bit like Dell of 10 years ago. Dell today is all about doing whatever they can to prevent you from actually having something fixed. Dear Dell.. My right control key is missing. "Please delete your browser history, this should fix your ctrl-key missing problem".

    I think he was merely pointing out that you were not going to get modded down because you said something anti-apple, you were going to get modded down because of your utterly pointless outburst.

    Interesting the last snipegut stretching knob I bought was made of rhino horn and I was unhappy with the result. Perhaps the magic of a Unicorn horn is what I need.

    Where can I order one? 50k is very affordable if I will be able to convince myself it is working as you describe.

    No not really. It means don't buy a new HDTV with only component inputs (impossible anyway so I can stop here, but I won't) in hopes of adding a blue-ray player that will be manufactured more than a year from now.

    Well he is able to get a homeowners insurance to cover what certainly sounds like a camera lens being used as part of a business, so anything is possible.
