    My ipod is permanently plugged into my car stereo so battery life isn't an issue, I can see why this may be a bit of a drawback with a mobile phone though.
    Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

      No - you send the phone back to Apple and they will replace it for you in a couple of days

        Two guys in the gym yesterday

        Young bloke "Have you seen the new iPhone, I reckon everyone will have one"

        Older bloke "It's a bit expensive isn't it? You have to pay >£200 for it then tie in to a crap contract for >£300 a year, sin't that a bit expensive for an iPod with a phone?"

        Young bloke "Yeah but everyone wants one and it will out sell the iPod I reckon"

        Old bloke "it costs alomost as much as a mac!"

        Young bloke "Yeah but it's the best phone on the market and the screen tilts"


        The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

        But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

          Funny, but with all this hype, I have never actually seen anyone with one....

            They're like illegal immigrants. The media hype says they're everywhere but no ones actually seen one.

              Oh no, I have seen millions of those, do they all have iPhones then?

                  Had a play with one yesterday for about 15 mins and was completely underwhelmed. It's too big and heavy for a phone and still too small to browse the web properly. Has some 'clever' features that amuse for about 5 mins.

                  This will go down with all those iPACs that people bought to double up as phones which they then got rid of because they were too bulky and battery hungry to be of practical use.

                  Will be popular with the homo/metrosexual community who can carry them around in their manbags and whip them out in Starbucks over a frappucino.

                    Got my iPhone a few days ago by the way, and am very pleased with it.

                    A word of warning though, make sure the call has actually ended when you tap 'End Call' before calling the recruitment consultant a moron...

                    Me: <taps end call>... You already have my latest CV, moron!
                    Him: Er, ok, cheers then.
