I still dont think that naming your product after something people use to start fires is a great choice...

@iScrewFanbois: Im confused... your tone seems to indicate that you are unhappy with Apple, but your screen name seems to indicate that you ARE Apple.

When I saw the pic, I assumed it was a photographer-centric Bird Flu protective mask.

@FlawedHero: @MotorboatJones: People (generally) root for the underdog. Apple "used" to be just that, but they’ve evolved into the Deathstar-inhabiting Empire.

While the concept of simply returning the phone may seem obvious enough, its not clear to everyone. By issuing a statement that attempts to imply that the problems are software-based, they’ll get a LOT of people to hang on to the device. Apple can (and very likely will) string its consumers along with promises of…

@Yinzers Are People Too: Did it work if she touched it?

@Arggh! there goes a...snake a snake!: As proven by this release, this simply isnt true. In this case, they denied it. That act alone validates the other exchanges.

@Kaiser-Machead: Pretty neat! I was hoping that it would continue on into full-on frogdom, but I suppose it wouldnt be that feasible

@Emperor_was_a_jerk: I dont hate Apple. I dont hate any company. Leaders sometimes make bad decisions. Steve Jobs makes a lot of them and he's created a dangerous culture inside his company and in it's consumers.

@Fusion: Have you explored Scientology? Might be worth while to fill the void :)

Jesus,

They suck and this press release is the cloesest that we are likely to see of them / Steve Jobs admitting that they aren't perfect.

@Habs: To be fair, we dont know everything that was on the phone. Certainly possible that there are things that she REALLY doesnt want out

No.

Apple,

@id8: No doubt, he has very clearly lost the ability to think and act like the CEO of a multi-billion dollar company. Seriously, it wouldnt surprise me if I saw him on tv this afternoon declaring to the world that he's a sea otter or that he's being called back to his home planet.

@LegacyCrono: His ego will prevent this from ending well for him or Apple. Why somebody at Apple hasnt created a mail rule that captures all of his replies before they reach customers is beyond me... Funny as hell.

So Steve replied to an email sent to one of his engineers? Or did I miss something?

@webdevmike: You know Steve want to make a statement SOOOO bad. Its coming, but for entertainment value, I want it now/today.

@Murdermonkey: As the owner of the only unicorn ranch in the US, I can say that there are no super models that work here. You sir, are a liar.
