Scare story from Big Brother Apple?

The next time you think Symbian Signed is a major problem on your otherwise wide-open smartphone, consider the world of Apple's iPhone. This scare story tells how even one unauthorised ringtone was enough for Apple to refuse honouring the device's warranty. Gulp. Hey, Apple, remember that famous Big Brother video you wanted to smash up? Careful you don't turn into the same character...

Read on in the full article.

They'll be punishing people for using third party carrying cases next...

Talking

There's a reason why people hate Steve Jobs, this is it.

But I'm sure there's something more to this story than meets the eye. I know one guy who killed his s60 while upgrading firmware via phoenix, he simply went to Nokia Care and told them the phone died while downloading wallpapers via data cable. Got that sorted easily.

I am surprised that more people haven't noticed that Apple turned into a cororate ogre long ago.

um.. sony..

that ps3 didn't have dust on it. It had a layer of dust so thick it couldn't be removed from it! what's more, the guy who 'reported' the problem and was interviewed on a news channel was later revealed to be an actor, and made a number of comments, such as 'wiggled the eject button' which showed he had never used one. Should look carefully, this story may just be FUD as well.

Steve Jobs is a sneaky scumbag, and Maczealots are like Jehovah's Witnesses.
