just read this on the news here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/8223005.stm
and after googling apparently apple have been trying to cover this up for a long time.
good bye to apple dominating the smart phone industry
and good luck to those who owns iphones or other apple products
*waits for an exploding macbook* |

Apple replaces iPhones for issues much less severe than this. This isn't going to change the market share.
Enjoy your exploding Sony laptop batteries though (Dell, et. al. circa 2006). ![Wink Wink](http://compsci.ca/v3/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif) |

Windows mobile, Android, and RIM phones are getting better and better. Just wait till this holiday season and u will see. In a year or two I dont think Apple will have as much of the smart phone market as they currently do. |

here's the real side of the stories.
http://gizmodo.com/5348444/iphone-explosions-the-inside-story
what actually happens is that 1/500 calls for problems with iphones are legitimate (all from battery over-heating), and all the others are from french people trying to get a free replacement for there own mistake like dropping it and the screen cracking.
"Seems like the French iPhone "explosion" plague is just a stupid summer media craze fed by some stupid French people."
*i do not condone the criticism of french people. |
