Agh, forgot to mention my iPhone 3G )))
I’ve updated it with the new 3.0 firmware and after that A-GPS is kind of mmm… well you name it. Even Maps keeps showing me Chambery as my location )))
which is some hundreds of kilometers from there.

Now thinking about Nokia and stuff too )))

1) battery 37cycles – 576Mah. would be replaced by apple? dream on dear!
do you have Apple Care? no? then you’ll need to buy the new battery…

2) now my PowerBook starts with sleep mode indicator lighted up. No video neither on the build in monitor nor on attached monitor. Everything else seems to be working just fine. Chimes, backligting of the keyboard, DVD, hard drive etc. Can start up in target mode pressing “T” key. Can even shut down through pushing briefly the power key and then pushing Enter key. The one strange thing – combination Command+Cntrl+Power have an about 20 seconds delay before restart take place.
Resetting SMC/starting from the System DVD/ changing RAM modules/turning off bluetooth card does not change anything. Computer starts in sleep mode despite all of my efforts.
I must precise that nothing particular happened with my PowerBook Pro. It went to sleep as normal as always and never came back from this state again.
And now I am in search for the magic solution apart of the famous “Care”

Should I also precise that I am not a nut even though I am really upset? ))

@Paul, I submitted a slew of Leopard bugs from launch some of which are still open. I think you experience less as you don’t install much software on your mac, maybe it’s that with the 10.5.0 that was causing me issues.

Dead pixels and yellowing screens was a massive issue on launch UK iPhones, i believe you got yours well after the US launch?

Thanks for visiting and leaving a comment – it’s appreciated

1) Never had any dead pixels on any of my iPhones
2) I bought Leopard at launch and never ran into any bug issues that made me go wtf.
3) Not sure what issue this is.
4) Mine is perfectly flush.
5) Aside from having single applications crash, I’ve never had the iphone itself crash much less need to ever restore it entirely.
6) No comment, Air user here.
7) No comment, not a MobileMe user.
No comment, not a MBP user. They will replace your battery if its over 300 cycles though, regardless of issue. Good to keep in mind for aging batteries, which I know is not your issue.
9) ditto
