My iPhone has been acting a fool recently. For about the last 2 months I had been dropping calls, and the phone was locking up just acting like a total duchebag. I had placed a call to att who assured me much to my surprise that it was there fault. that 3g service in NYC was assy and that was causing all of my problems. They actually cut my phone bill to 30 dollars for like 2 months which was nice. Im actually suprised that it was that easy. Call complain they say turn 3G off and i say well i need it they say its free. I say ok. It was actually quite painless and after the horror stories i had heard about there customer service i was pleasantly surprised.

I took my phone to the apple store and they pretty much blamed it on att as well after running diagnostics they found nothing wrong with my phone and basically told me tough luck. SO for the last month i have been working with a shoddy ass connection on a phone i love, (when it works. I had stopped answering calls, i used text messages i basically would do anything to avoid answering the phone. Then my symptoms got worse. The phone started locking up all the time. I went back to the apple store and was actually helped in no time. I told the genius dude My phone was actin a fool he said well we can restore it but thats about it. i said whatever lets try it. We ran a restore and chatted about work. His job is great jeans and a t-shirt my job blows suit and tie. I basically agree.

After the restore I was dreading that the phone would magically work for him and the second i get out of the store it would be back to its old assy behavior. Well for once the moons aligned and great Zeus’s beard (or zombie jesus whoever you prefer) was shining on me. He tried to activate and the screen wouldn’t work. I walked out of there with a new phone. So to sum up the story here are the stats:

Phone calls to AT&T: 2
Visits to the Apple Store: 2

I just wanted to post this because well for once I dont actually have anything to complain about. Have a nice day, and see you all at the wing and beerfest!!!

Those tears of joy shed by iPhone loyalists are turning into cries of grief with the announcement by AT&T that it will impose a $200 fee to upgrade to the next-generation iPhone, which lands in stores Friday.

For iPhone 3G users who are not eligible for subsidized pricing, the upgrade “tax” brings the grand total to not $200 or $300 — but a hefty $400 or $500 for the iPhone 3GS, depending on the model (16GB or 32GB, respectively).

But tech geeks and criminal masterminds share one philosophy: They understand there’s a way around everything. You don’t have to pay that extra fee, iPhone 3G customers. Here are a few quick, painless methods to shave off that $200.

Can someone make the week go buy faster? I know what could make the week go faster. Peggle on the iphone!!! That is right your life is over give in to your evil overlord now. Peggle is on your crackiest of game companions. I don’t know if I’m gonna be able to do anything but charge my battery and play peggle all the time. That game is pretty much the equivalent of showing shiner a BUTT (NSFW) magazine.

Keeping with the gay theme i started here I’m pretty sure the worst show of all time is gonna air tonight. The Real Housewives Of New Jersey I mean For real? This is on? Sweet Jesus i thought that flavor of love was a trainwreck, then they upped the ante with Rock of love, and now this? man I don’t see how we can get much more badder. this may be the baddest/worserest thing ever. You know whats sad, ill watch it, and wait for each episode like some kind of epileptic dog waiting for the flashing lights of the burglar. (I have no idea where I was going there) Its quite possible That I’m addicted to the worst TV on the planet, i just love the fucking horrible shows so much, i think its just the American hating side of me. The spectacle of what we have become is so fascinating, it is the trainwreck i cant look away from.
