Goodbye iPhone…
Recently my iPhone’s home button has stopped working so I decided to call Apple. The man on the other end of the phone was kind and made me reservations at my nearest Apple Store’s Genius Bar for the next day.
The next day when I went to visit the Genius Bar, a red-shirted Apple employee quickly took a look at my iPhone while I told him what was wrong and that I don’t have AppleCare. He then took my iPhone into the back and looked at it. When he walked back to where I was standing, he told me that the only thing they could do to fix it would be to replace the screen and that Apple would charge me $200 for that. He also told me that I could just buy a new iPhone 3G for $500 or a 3G S for $600!! NO WAY am I paying that much money for a phone!
So now I am using a Samsung a177 as my primary phone. I plan on getting a new iphone around next June/July when Apple is probably going to come out with a new iPhone.
What kind of phone do you use? Have you ever broken a phone?
