Had checked my mail earlier and went back to my phone to make a call barely 10 minutes later. Was greeted with a wonderful message saying I&nbsp;could not send or receive calls and had to do a restore through iTunes. Got me upset but not a huge deal since I&nbsp;frequently sync for my music\movies. Well, I&nbsp;got home a half hour ago and tried to restore. It continually fails and gives me an error code or complains about my SIM card. Basically, it's telling me my less than three month old phone is now a brick. Less than a year ago I&nbsp;had to take my Apple TV in because it also turned belly up. I&nbsp;had thought that Apple products were pretty solid. But this makes two of their devices in a years time that have turned to piles of expensive junk.<br /><br />Needless to say, I'll now think twice before ever buying something from them again. That or I should really start buying lottery tickets because I'm a statistical anomaly.<br /><br />On the upside, Apple service this afternoon was equally great. They replaced my phone with zero hassle after making their best attempt to restore it for me.<br type="_moz" /></span><br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=icabaud&ditemid=937" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://icabaud.dreamwidth.org/937.html phone apple annoyed public 0 https://icabaud.dreamwidth.org/431.html Fri, 27 Mar 2009 23:05:39 GMT https://icabaud.dreamwidth.org/431.html &nbsp;After spending probably way too much time typing up my basic bio, finally down to writing my first entry in my planned to be new home.<br /><br />Liking what I see so far. Clean and logical interface - stuff is where I&nbsp;expect it to be when I&nbsp;go to hunt down a profile or account setting.&nbsp;Easy to navigate around from reading to posting to profiles without screen clutter which is different than &quot;clean and logical interface&quot; as I&nbsp;said earlier.&nbsp;Only hit one error when I&nbsp;tried to go customize profile style but oh well. It's not April 30th yet. :) I'll be making it a point to come back here more to test out other links, type up more entries, upload a userpic and take things through their paces. Haven't seen anything I dislike thus far. Not that I&nbsp;expect to from my boy Blue!<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=icabaud&ditemid=431" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://icabaud.dreamwidth.org/431.html first blah None excited public 0
