After 2 hours walked out of the Apple store with a replacement phone "refurbished new". I'm working on my 3rd iPhone now. The second warranty replacement "refurbished new" iPhone only lasted little over a month. Apple's warranty is great you buy a new phone and when it takes a shit on you, Apple replaces it with a used iPhone.
Could be partially the reason Apple stock is down $16 last few days.
Apple care is $69.00 US and extends the warranty for 1 year.

Wonder how Apple's IPhone will fare against Google's smart phone ?
There's a good variety of reasons why Google's Android platform (Google has a platform, not a phone) will most likely not even register as a 'blip' on Apple's iPhone radar.
Google's efforts are uniquely geared against Microsoft efforts - hence, Google's Android platform will most likely have an effect on Windows Mobile market share (as it directly targets it) than Apple's iPhone.
Seems that while 'The Market' in general is still struggling to recover from the recent sell-off last week, AAPL has nicely jumped back up by $20 in the meantime.

Actually, I ended up buying AIG shares. Was too good to pass up.
...and, for what it's worth, I did not 'lose' $50 the week before - that would only hold true if I had BOUGHT at the high mark. Pointless to explain, probably.

Well it looks like the iPhone is in trouble again.
From Fortune Magazine's
Apple 2.0
Mac news from outside the reality distortion field
If you have an iPhone 3G power adapter that looks like the photos at right, stop using it immediately.
That’s the word from Apple Inc. (AAPL), which is warning users that in certain conditions those little metal prongs can break off, get stuck in the power outlet and give you a very bad shock.
According to a press release issued Friday:
“Apple has received reports of detached prongs involving a very small percentage of the adapters sold, but no injuries have been reported.” (link)
The adapters were supplied with every iPhone 3G sold in the United States, Japan, Canada, Mexico and several Latin American countries (see list here). Anybody who bought an iPhone in one of those countries received the bad adapter.
Analysts estimate that Apple has sold more than 4 million iPhone 3Gs since it was introduced in July.
Along with its tersely worded safety warning, Apple on Friday announced the details of a power adaptor exchange program:
“There are two ways to exchange your current ultracompact Apple USB power adapter for a new, redesigned adapter.
Order a replacement adapter via the Web. These replacement adapters will ship within three weeks of your order, starting on Friday, October 10.
Exchange your adapter at an Apple Retail Store starting on October 10.”
Apple will replace the old adapters with the one pictured here, identified by a small green dot. The old adapters must be turned in at the same time; iPhone owners who order their replacement via the Web are being asked to give an address so Apple can send them a mailing packet.
Product recalls are not unusual in the computer industry, although they usually involve defective batteries. In August 2006, Apple recalled 1.8 million notebook batteries manufactured by Sony (SNE) because they had a tendency to overheat and, on occasion, catch on fire.
Did not have to serach for this, it was front page news on CNN.com (International)
Got a spin on this for us iDuck....

Power adapter. Design flaw. Apple proactively recalls them.
I'm sure you would have preferred if users' iPhones had burst into flames, and Apple being forced to replace the adapters with a class-action lawsuit.
Pity that didn't happen, I know.
In the grand scope of things, this sort of thing isn't news, or newsworthy -- except to alert users of the adapters to replace them.
Nokia underwent the exact same thing last year:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/08/14/AR2007081401474.html
Similarly, Nokia has a massive recall of CELL PHONES due to a software glitch that caused problems with 3G networks. Odd that was never brought up when Apple allegedly had similar problems -- and fixed them in the field with a software update, versus a hardware recall.
http://www.pcworld.com/article/46584/nokia_faces_massive_cell_phone_recall.html
So, equipment recalls aren't news, and certainly not doom 'n gloom news that you would like them to be.

not at all
your have actually not lost or made anything
until such time as you actually cash up
similar to property valuations, having a house valued at $3m is great, but its not $3m cash in my hand
likewise you and your millions of shares you are buying and selling
the price is only relevant next year when you are 65 and decide to sell them a day after jobs snuffs it and they are only worth $100 each

Damn iDuck,
That was fast!
Usually you take a day to rise to my bait but in the iPhone thread you jump on it in under an hour and that includes finding websites to support your spin.
I am impressed.... what is it, does Steve Jobs send you an email whenever we post APPL criticism on the BTF  ...
