The oldest daughter has had 3 galaxy s2's in the last two months her first 2 kept overheating and switching themselves off then she had to wait about 30 mins before she could switch it back on

Brace for a rant

I had a friend who modded on a forum with over 20k active users.. they found a guy who seems to be working for apple doing something known as shilling http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shill
Turned out he was doing the same on loads of other forums.. almost the same thread titles and asking "what laptop should I get my girlfriend" etc.. then he would finish it by saying "we decided to get a macbook because it's the best...blah blah, we're so happy with it blah.. glad we didn't get *competitor brands* and so on..

Just saying if guys take a step back and look at what you're actually buying.. have a play with other devices before getting an iphone..

I might go as far to say I think the reason people feel underwhelmed with the 4S is because it was rushed to coincide with Steve Jobs death for double or even triple the headlines..

It's a shame Steve jobs died.He was so close to inventing the ultimate single man app that would eliminate the need for a woman...the dish washing and cooking app.Guess he died in vain knowing the iPhone had everything but the kitchen sync.

Good point, in fact are you even sure he's dead, or maybe it wasn't the cancer that killed him, maybe Apple assassinated him in order to get more headlines?

Or maybe as suggested above, the 4S is a logical evolution of the iPhone, in line with the approach they have taken in recent years, and although some of us may have wished for a new exterior, it appears to be a very substantial evolution at that!

The main things it needs to do is work as a phone (i.e. battery life and antenna, which both seem to be massively improved), work as a pda, which seems to be massively improved, and work as a camera, which seems to be massively improved.  Range Rover-less at the moment - Pining!

LOL@ MICK!

Also , wrt shilling/marketing etc TBF these things are so subjective but as Boz alluded to; it's pretty cynical to align recent events so in the spirit of link slinging: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troll_(Internet)

Ordered mine yesterday  If you have nothing nice to say,say nothing at all.

Me too. Ordered a 32GB white through Vodafone. I wanted to go onto 3 for the unlimited data plan but it was more expensive and leaving 3 (if you ever have to) is really painful.

Vodafone and O2 turned out to be the cheapest in that order. Both are still offering 12 month contracts . Vodafone offering £59 credit on first bill until the 16th + £40 Quidco. The only thing I am sad about is loosing my unlimited data plan with O2 (it's an old plan) Paul

A guy from Apple promised me a pre-release of a new product if I sucked his dick this morning. As if I would compromise my values for such a materialistic item!
