^^^ You say that you don't have a problem with the iPhone - yet you call the owners simpletons. Is it that you have a problem with the owners? You blame all the millions of owners for Apple not failing this time?

Guys, may I quickly wade into this debate, please? And it will have to be very quick as I'm smack bang in the middle of a big project.
I almost fully agree with what etaab is saying. Apple are taking the p1ss with their customers. They have been doing so ever since the 1st iPhone came out. In their quest to conquer the phone market they seem to have lost sight of what they did best - produce great computers and great software for video professionals. This all now comes 2nd to their phone priorities.
Having been a Mac and Pro suite user for many many years, over the last few years I've noticed a massive decline in Apples interest and care of their computer and software users. But I won't go into this here as we are talking about the iPhone.
Yes, Apple have definitely c0cked up with the iPhone 4. The 3G and 3GS were very good phones BUT not great phones. This is purely on the basis that Apple was not prepared to implement a lot of functions they new the users wanted and could so easily have. Why? Well, I'll let you lot decide on that one. To me, and any other business man, it seems pretty obvious.
But the finger of blame cannot fully be pointed at Apple. Almost ALL iPhone 4 buyers were aware of the problems of the phone prior to buying it but in their stupidity ALONG WITH Apples GREAT publicity vehicle they just couldn't resist.
Those who didn't know about the problems of the phone prior to buying it MUST know now, following ALL the press this subject has got. But it's Apple and along with their marketing behemoth and with the old adage of all publicity is good publicity, not very many people seem too bothered.
Apple have though done one decent thing by offering the free bumpers OR refund. BUT they should have the decency to admit their is a problem - regardless of how big or small it may be!
I have an iPhone 4. Will I give it back? Doubt it as I had a deal whereby I'd be insane to hand it back
Should Apple stop making phones. No way. They have the ability to totally steal the market. They just need to stop being so 'kin greedy!
But above all of the above, people need to realise (especially the Fanboys) that Apple and Steve Jobs are not Heaven and The Messiah (respectively). The funny you tube clip some's up MOST iPhone buyers.
Also, my following experience sums it up. I was in a restaurant the other day. A lady sitting opposite says to her guy "pass me my iPhone"...........................
Back off to work now.

shame about the white... and the only bumper colour offered was black, which I took anyway as I didn't fancy any of the other case offerings

I'd take the Galaxy S. No surprise there i here everyone comment !
@ AbuBasim - no not quite, i dont like to offend people in such a way. However, for people to buy the iPhone on its brand name only, which im sure the largest majority of iPhone 4 owners are, they're clearly the simpletons of which i speak. They're the type of people you wouldnt find on this internet forum, they're the kind of people who only want the iPhone 4 because it goes well with their handbag / suit / lifestyle.
Not for the actual technology behind the product.

Why is it more challenging to make the white one? I don't understand it's just a colour?

There have been many apps that bring you BBC news, but today the BBC have released their own
app (iTunes link) and its very good! possibly even better than the
Sky News app

Hi all just got my ip4 today. And enjoying it so far but just want to know if anyone else is having issues with their camera led. Mine doesn't seem to work for still when I put it to on it stays off. It works fine on video camera though and as soon as I slide it back to normal camera it just cuts off. I have installed the updated software and set up as a new phone but still have same issues any suggestions?
