iPhone...to be or not to be? ..for me

Certainly the question for me today! Let's see, I bought the first iPhone released, loved it from the start. It is a slick gadget that has lots of fun features, decent camera and can entertain me for hours! So, being the gadget lover I am, when the new 3G iPhone was released, I HAD to have! Off to Apple, purchased, (giving my old one to my dear friend Annie..who needed it...her phone was held together by TAPE!!).

With my new 3G in hand, I was in heaven with all the new applications I downloaded. As I am entertaining myself, standing in line at the DMV...(YOU HAVE TOO!!!), I dropped my phone and the entire front face shattered! So, with my shattered phone (and heart) and a few hours without a phone, I managed to get a new one. So..with phone #3, I am off and running again.

A couple weeks into having my new phone, well..I dropped it .....(I had to play with Larry ...you have seen him on my blog, right?)...but it only cracked the face..so I continued using the phone. No problems....

That is until I decided to go against Ed's suggestion of having Mr. Larry on the bed...and well..he peed on the bed ..so in my haste to remove the sheets, comforter and wash ...(to try and hide from Ed the fact I had put him on the bed!!)...I left my phone ...in that pile of sheets, comforter ....when I put them into the washing machine....and let's just say...no matter how CLEAN the iPhone is..if it gets wet..IT DOESN'T WORK!!

...off to the Apple store to shell out more money to purchase another device (#4).....and that brings us to today. I have had the phone less than 2 weeks..and it has worked fine (other than the AT&T rep left off my data plan...which meant my voicemail didn't work for a week).....all was going fine......until today!!! Now I am not sure what has happened....I haven't dropped, washed, etc.....I synced it with iTunes and it stopped working!! It continues to say searching...for signal. On hold with AT&T for over an hour ....transferred to Apple support, over 45 minutes and ....was JUST HUNG UP ON........so ...is it meant for me to have an iPhone..or not....off the Apple store for help......

iPhone ...to be or not to be? ..for me

....thoughts?


(YAY, it is for me (for now!) ...it was an AT&T 3G network issue)
