The iPhone is dead. Long live the iPhone!
08.24.2008
So, an important lesson was learned today. Check -all- the pockets in your pants before you do laundry. You never know. A very small, very expensive, phone slash computer could be hiding in one of them. I went to the Apple store just knowing they were going to be totally sold out and I don’t know what happened, planets aligned or I withdrew from some karmic account but they were in stock! I’m glad I could get one but there were reasons I was waiting. I’ve heard reports that the 3Gs are kind of buggy and I really didn’t want to spend the extra $15/mo for the 3G but the washer and I subconsciously subverted the logical part of my brain and here we are. I found some other people online who had done the exact same thing and some of their phones worked again after they dried out for a couple days so, who knows, I may have 2 iPhones soon.
Almost made it a year! Where does this rank on the list of phones you’ve had the longest?
Probably, but more importantly, did you get a new cork case or did you buy something else?
Because Steve Jobs is the occasional anti-christ, I had to get a different case. God forbid they left the form factor exactly the same between the 2 phones. Unfortunately they don’t make the cork case for the 3G. Fortunately they did have an orange silicone case so I’m still relatively happy
but no cork, so you suck.
Is Matt calling Todd a corksucker?!? Settle down guys!
Luckily, cork floats so the iPhone never actually got submerged. It can also be used as a personal flotation device.
He can do that with the new phone though, right?
I think this is probably one of the phones you have had the longest.
Which means Todd will have the 3g for about 2 weeks and then get a new phone to balance out the universe.
So that means the shorts Todd was washing aren’t clean?
And to think in all that time Todd never sent me an MMS…
that’s what? lika a .5?
.6
Shut it. I only get 1 shot at the $200 3G. If this one dies in a non-warranty covered situation it’s like $600 to replace it.
