Apple not to blame for iPhone problems

Great. Jobs uses cheap crap in his hardware now.

I have 6 iPhone in my family and 3 more of friends. In Spain the 3G network is quite Mature and no one of us has any problems. The download speed is 3Mbits average, 5 máximum of the theorical 7.2 in Spain.



FFS it doesnt stop um selling it when they know fine well its not goin to work as it should in certain areas does it ??

when are the dumb furkers that buy these shiny toys going to get the message !!!!!

Orange has actually employed actors to wait in line outside their shops in poland for the iminant release of the itoy in poland, talk about spin, it oughta be illegal for taking advantage of the ishinytoy buying retards, it probably is :O)

For the benefit of those on the pond's western shores, would someone please translate:

"...dodgier than a Leeds 'its turnip not chicken' korma purchased after 2am on a Saturday."

Thanks,

Simply put. Problems with the iPhone ARE Apple's fault. It's their product.
Blaming the problems on a chip in the phone tells me their QC stinks the big one.
In the rush to get these devices on the streets, they are either didn't catch the problem at the factory, or are ignoring it. 
Software you can do the release now patch later bit to some extent. Hardware? Now you have a major problem thousands of faulty devices with no easy fix except to replace them at company expense.

I'm pretty sure Apple knew of the problems with this "immature" chip. Anyway you look at it, it's still their fault these chips made it in to the iPhone.

Your product, Your design, Your choice of components. Step up Apple!! Say "Ooops" And tell your customers what you are going to do to correct the problem. It's not like you got a bad shipment of chips, you got what you ordered.

I for one expect better from your company.
(Mainly cause I'm used to seeing better)

LoCatus...

Seems Nick Farrell needs to take a little more time before posting anything at all on matters related to Apple...

Very suspect. Here's an example (worksafe)

Sorry, Nick, but you are simply wrong on this call. The problem is in the network, not the device, which works perfectly well in areas with a mature 3G infrastructure capable of handling all the traffic you can throw at it. Do a little more research and you will see that the consensus is shaping up that no-one was prepared for the huge spike in 3G traffic generated by these phones. Add to that mix the very late AT&T 3G intro here in the States (it takes way more than three months to tune a 3G network) and you have instant disaster.

"...dodgier than a Leeds 'its turnip not chicken' korma purchased after 2am on a Saturday." 

dodgy [colloq.] meaning: Chiefly British. risky; hazardous; chancy Evasive; shifty. 
Unsound, unstable, and unreliable. 
So risky as to require very deft handling. ripe. rotten in the state of Denmark

Leeds: a city in West Yorkshire in North England. During the Industrial Revolution, Leeds developed into a major industrial centre for the production and trade of wool which can be used to pull over ones eyes. Leeds notably hosts the Help the Aged Abbey Dash, though it is not entirely clear where to or why. 

A Turnip in the UK, is not a Swede to be tossed. Turnips are members of the mustard family with large root heads. They should never be confused with a rutabaga, which should only be used on an inhabitant of Sweden. 
That is, of course, if one is not chicken, or may make a swift getaway in a courgette. Turnip meringue may often draw flies, but so does sugar swedes.

Indian cuisine is quite popular in Britain; many restaurants prepare and hold food from lunch, perhaps buffet, until dinner/supper. Korma: a mixture of spices, including ground coriander and cumin, combined with yoghurt or coconut milk kept below curdling temperature; temperature heterogeneity is difficult if the mixture is left to stand.

2pm on Saturday maybe anybody's holiday. 

Ergot:
the logic of using average download speeds to measure phone faults is 
[Chiefly British]+[wooley-dash]+[swede-tossing]+[yoghurt choking to chicken].

Well, I tried this once, but something run a foul, or fowl. Oh cobblers! I cocked something up, and now it tastes like codswallop!


Well, it's hit the main stream internet media site, Slate:

"This seems to point to the dodgy Infineon chipset". This does not appear to be true... AT&T Blackberry's on the same bandwagon.

Scott, here is the translation:

"...dodgier than a Leeds 'its turnip not chicken' korma purchased after 2am on a Saturday." 

Roughly translates to:
"... not the product I asked for, in a major city, at an Indian restaurant, after 2am on a Friday night / Saturday morning, probably the staff were trying to take advantage of my drunken state"

Something like that.

He should have gotten a pigeon kebab with rat burger in Donnie down the road.
