IPhone Glitch
gadgets March 14th, 2008I’m sure my poor mother is worried sick not having talked to her son in months. The dialing function on the phone works and I’m able to make calls but I’ve just been too busy playing Bejeweled on my I phone to call my mother. But we will get to that.
First let me start by saying that I was incredibly excited when the I phone came out. I was always a big fan of Apple products since the very first incarnation of the I pod. I even disassembled and then reassembled the original I-pod in under a half hour. For three days straight I camped out in front of the nearest Apple store waiting in glorious anticipation for the legendary I phone. Those frigid nights of sleeping on hard pavement were well worth it. The features literally blew my mind, and the touch screen made accessing the internet incredibly easy. I was able to get old episodes of Star Trek from Youtube and watch them whenever I wanted to. I could even use the GPS feature to track where I was going for my job on Geek Squad. It was a pretty sweet deal.
I recently parted ways with my old I phone, I gave it to my younger brother Sam. I have since moved on to bigger and better things. That’s right, I upgraded to the brand new 16 gig I phone. It works just as good if not better than the old version. On this one I can store even more TV theme songs from the 70’s. The only problem that I can think of is that I believe that the phone part of the I phone is broken. I think the ringer must have been damaged in shipping because nobody seems to be calling me. I could try to disassemble this one as well but the I phone’s sleeker design makes it much more difficult. I wonder if it’s a defect in all the new models. Perhaps some of your readers are experiencing the same type of problem with these new I phones. I pay the phone bill regularly and can’t imagine what the problem might be. I’m afraid that one of my many girlfriends have been trying to call me but are not able to reach me because of this ringer malfunction. I even tried to fiddle with the settings but nothings seems to work. My many years of technical experience from the AV club haven’t prepared me for this.
Perhaps after I beat Bejeweled I will give my mother a call. I really should get that glitch sorted out first. I’m going into the Apple store first thing in the morning. I just can’t risk missing any more important phone calls. So please if anyone out there has any other information about this let me know ASAP.
Over and out.
