The Epic iPhone Fail



Well, not to say I told you so-- actually, I told you so.

Oh, don't get me wrong: I completely understand how Apple's clusterfuck would blindside you. The original iPhone's release last year did have a hype machine in full swing, lines of sweaty-palmed nerds lined around the block in rapt anticipation, and eventual (inevitable) server overloads under their combined weight, but why would that happen again? Apple must have learned their lesson, right?

It's not your fault. You were duped, like you've been duped before, like you'll be duped again and again. In any case, I thank you for being good guinea pigs. Do let me know when your MobileMe account starts working, won't you?
