iPhone Suffering from Flawed 3G Chips
After reading this article about possible problems with the iPhone 3G chip, I am rather glad that I did not get one.
My situation is a bit unique. I simply do not want to buy a $300 iPhone 3G, sign a 2 year contract with AT&T, and next year this time not be able to use it when I am in Ottawa, Canada. Would be sweet if Rogers would let me simply sign my iPhone 3G purchased in the US up to their service, but that is not going to happen. Rogers is having too much fun raping their fellow Canadian citizens with their 3 year contracts and $110 limited data plans for the iPhone 3G.
Lets hope that this is a firmware fixable issue. God knows the Iphone 2.0 software is slow and buggy. It literally takes me 2 seconds to get SMS Text Messaging to appear once clicking on the iPhone icon. Even longer for it to bring up my contacts list.
I was a huge fan of the iPhone 2G and the 1.0 software, but I have to say, with the 2.0.1 (that is even with a bug fix or two) the iPhone works like an alpha product. Battery life….hmmm, do not get me started. Oh, and why does it take an hour to sync my iPhone now - why?
Steve - Please use some those hordes of cash you are making off the new phones and the App Store and fix the damn software…please!
