Advertising, ad campaigns, ad agencies, and the people that make it happen

Since the iPhone went on sale in the UK a couple of weeks ago British iPhone buyers are in an online uproar over reception problems they're experiencing on the network of O2, Apple's exclusive service provider in England. The issue has come to light on Apple's own discussions forum, in a thread entitled, "UK 02 (poor signal strength/reception problems)." You can read the thread here. This is the same discussion forum where Apple's iBricking escapade -- customers who'd downloaded third-party apps found their phones locked up -- first came to light in late September. The O2 reception thread began on Nov. 11, and is still going strong, with 103 messages posted as of Nov. 25. That's an indication that, at least for the affected users, this isn't a one-off glitch but a problem in search of an as-yet-unavailable solution. Best get GodJobs onto it.

And I waited all night for it. Good job it was a typical Summer's evening!
