    Chill.



    I requested that he stop being nasty. I offered no threat as to consequences if he continues. Your question and my answer are both off-topic. I usually try to ignore trolls so as not to multiply their posts with responses, but sometimes I make a exception.



    Please stay on-topic.

    NEW RESULTS: I surveyed 4 people in my office - 100% prefer iPhone!!! Amazing!

    It would help to learn something about basic 'margin of error' calculations given sample size (it is not a command, just a wish).



    310 is a decent number.

    Meh, I erased that post. It wasn't too constructive.

    Can't wait for Extreme and Harly to show up.

    Based on the tone, some of us believe they already have.



    (That is, shown up and/or poisoned the well)

    Saying nasty stuff about other posters makes this place less welcoming to newcomers.

    I wonder why AI didn't do an article on the 1/2 million iPhones S. Korea sold in 4 months and the records it broke with those sales numbers.

    Right?! They like to pretend they are new to the forum but this is just iGenius and MacTripper, respectively, derailing thread after thread. They can't attention with civil discourse so they'll get negative attention.

    Apparently enough to warrant press and Apple issuing a support document.



    The low signal wifi issue could be a problem when one roams with the device, as Apple blames the router for the trouble.

    The heat issue has to do a lot with the sun and warm climates.

    Anyway my point was that unless we see some new higher capacity batteries and cooler, more powerful processors, I suspect the iPad and iPhone have reached their technical limits in their present form factor. If they scale up in size, perhaps it will allow room for better cooling and more features.



    Oh, and welcome to the forums BTW, a bit of a zoo unfortunately, even some long time posters can't seem to behave themselves.

    These sorts of remarks, insulting other posters, are totally off-topic. Unless you can cite examples of uncivil discourse by me, please stop with the accusations.



    Or even better, please just don't respond to me or mention me. We'll both be happier that way. Thanks.

    Well, Josh B. seems a bit tekstudian. I like the way he's tried to innoculate himself against being labeled a troll with his signature and yesterday when he was calling everyone else a troll. Note to JB: it's not working.

    I wasn't aware of the overheating issue. Thanks for the information.



    NYC at 70 degrees is hardly a "warm climate" however. If it overheats on a balmy spring day, what will happen in mid-summer?



    OT: I wonder if any of the nasty accusations pointed at you will be retracted or if there will be any apologies. You were accused of lying.
