Okay, I've already gone through 4 iPhone 3Gs. The first one had a dead pixel, the second one had a crack hear the headphone jack, the third one had a dead pixel, and the fourth one had a dead pixel. I brought the fourth one in to the Apple Store today to get a "new" iPhone and this time I inspected the iPhone that they guy pulled out. The one he pulled out had a big red pixel that was stuck, the second one had a barely visible dead pixel and the third one had quite a few dead pixels. I know the guy, since I've been there so many times so I told him that I'd take the second one. I got it, signed the paperwork for the "new" iPhone and I left, when I got home tonight though, I saw the crack, near the headphone jack. I was about to scream! It's a 30 minute drive to the nearest Apple Store. And I've been there way too many times for my iPods and iPhone. So I tried to fill in the crack with white toothpaste and it didn't work. I was so pissed because I had an invisibleSHIELD with me too because I thought that this would be the "perfect" iPhone. So now, I want to know, is there one iPhone 3G without a dead pixel or a crack!? I really want to just get that one perfect iPhone and put it in this invisibleSHIELD. I know that I'm going to have to go to the Apple Store soon and get yet another "new" iPhone 3G. I would like to know why they took the second iPhone I ever had out of the little white box when the iPhone had only been out for 3 days, all they all refurbs? The guy at the store told me that they weren't because they haven't been out long enough, I wonder if the ones in white boxes are all of the iPhones that had a defect and are sent to Apple Stores as replacements. Well anyways, if anyone of you guys, or girls have a perfect iPhone 3G, let me know.

  1. apart from everything you have said i'm not quite sure whether i'm gonna answer your question or not.However, your best bet is not to buy the iphone 3G this PDA is having massive problems an apple has done an excellent job to lure customers into  buying it.In fact the only difference between the first generation iphone and the 3G is the GPS system and that the 3G is 20% faster the the 2G for which apple charges customer an extra $10 bucks excluding taxes.Overall iphone 3G not worth it.  


  2. My old iphone 3g's sleep/wake button was starting to sink in, so i got it replaced. They gave me a new one and I haven't had a problem yet.
