Got iPhone 4 and send some complains to apple right away…

iphone4where2

Hello all,

I was happy user of old iPhone 3G for very very long time. But finally it died on me, well no wonder after drop into toilet… case also started to crack, display was flickering. I told my self its time for new phone.

Went to my local service provider, and asked for new iPhone… all went fine, I got it and went happy back home..

BUT ! there is couple of issues I have for now and basically this is what I send to apple as feedback:

Hello Apple Team,

I guess you are getting this a lot ( or maybe not as it is still there after a year as I read on forums ).

I got my iPhone 4 today ( before I had 3G iPhone ) and I have couple applications there that I have no idea why they are there ?

Nike + iPhone: Why on earth it is there ? I didn’t ask for it, it is not essential app and I’m also not big fan of forcing advertisement for Nike on me, would it help if I say that it is against my religion or something to get it out of the phone ? I mean why not give us I choice to get rid of it ? ( “get rid of it” read as remove completely, not hide )

Game Center: exactly the same issue as with the app above, if I want games I buy them, do not force this on us.

Stocks: this is kind of special case ( I guess added just for Steve J. ) how many people checks daily what the stocks are ? its not even accurate and with delay so what is the point here ? I can’t imagine student or young person who got new iphone running to his friends ans saying: “Hey check this out, stock of apple goes up today by half a point !” rely ?!? If I want to check stocks I download apps for it…

I don’t want to jailbreak my phone to get rid of the useless ballast that should have been optional in first place…

Please send this mail ( in red preferably ) to your OS planing or developers or whoever who can get rid of this apps.

Many Thanks

Updating iPhone old generation to FW 4+ ?

apple-iphone-in-hand-thumb Bad Idea !

My iPhone is I think second generation, that one before 3GS version come out, and update to new

version of firmware made it half way slower… I think little to late to advice this, like we had the choice anyway…

If you experience similar issues let me know in comments…

Yours,

Modo and Snow Leopard OS / MacBook

modo It works ! Now thats out of my system… I can give short article for all of you.

As all MacBook users with GMA X3100 had to get used to to the fact that nothing even smelling 3D would not runn or if it would it would crash all the time… along came OS 10.6 Snow Leopard and changed all.
