Major pain in my ass. after 90 minutes with the rep at the store, and getting the AT&T side of it squared away, he gave up on the iTunes process of activation and asked me to just go plug it in at home.

When I synch the thing to my new version of iTunes, it can't get a connection. Probably the same problem we had at the store, and due to volume ... but can anyone else show me some light at the end of the tunnel?

i suspected there was going to be some major fuckups today. hopefully you can get things sorted out in a timely manner

Yeah, this is pissing me off. I have to go run some errands, and I guess it looks like I'm leaving the phone at home.

replying to this from my newly activated iPhone

good stuff.

i was talking to a guy today who still isn't able to get his activated. apparently there were huge lineups at the Rogers store in the mall, and there was actually a fucking cop there watching over things.

jesus christ people...it's a PHONE!!!!!!!!!

Don't buy stuff on the first day it's out! Have you learned nothing? I can't wait 'til they all start spontaneously combusting and get recalled.

Standing in line since 3am to buy what? Something that you can already get?

Internet and cellular phone service.


If it was a ticket to a one-time concert or sporting event, then I could understand standing in line that long.

Also, 2 months down the road, this phone will drop to $100. You just wait and watch.

and 6 months from now there will be a yet another newer version...

I would buy one but the plans are fucking ridiculous

psst... $30/month for 6 gigs.

now that is enticing,I've already got a plan with Fido I wonder what just the phone would cost me.

if you aren't tied up with a contract, you can get one for $199. 3years, but I figured I've been with rogers for 10 already, so why not ?
