I have had little issue with my new 3GS. Other than the battery being a lot shorter than expected. And a couple of hangups with the screen becoming unresponsive. But I have not wanted to post my problems because I didnt know how far it would go.

I do believe that Apple should resolve our issues shortly. Either with a fix, or a speedy return for our purchase. I do not believe that these issues should be negated to the bottom of the list, because its just a simple few that report anything.

I am from the mindset that you get what you pay for. And if we are paying a hefty premium, it should work they way it is stated. Anything other than that in my book, is false advertisement.

And if we become a member of a community, than it should be a community. If someone has issues, then its our responsibility to take their concerns seriously, and give a listening ear. Not attack them because we might feel that they are somehow belittling our precious devices, and their parent company.

We each have something that we believe in. Let it be something more than a thing....

Always speak your mind whether people debate you or not. You will feel better knowing that you have said what you wanted to say. Who cares if anyone agrees we all have different opinions about different things.
