iPhone Problems

The recent launch of the new Apple iPhones was widely anticipated by consumers. However probably due to a mass activation process, most of the phones are unable to be activated. The new phone comes with 3G and requires the telco to activate the phone before you can use. Something like registering your Windows XP with the software code on the sticker that stuck on your computer. So with more than thousands of registrations at the same time, I am not surprise the network will be unable to take it. As usual the blame game is there. Some Apple employees claims the telco involved was the cause while the telco claims the problem started at Apple. So does that mean getting the older model of iPhone will be safe? No. The older model was affected too since it uses the same way to register. The best solution is to wait until the craze for iPhone died off. Else you just purchased a useless phone that you are unable to use and the parties involved can't or won't do anything further to help you.
