my macbook breaks all the time and unlike a window or Linux machine I usually can't fix it myself.

It has power issues. Sometimes the battery won't charge others it won't turn off. The DVD has broken twice and now the mouse pad button is stuck.

I travel a lot but the Macbook has handled it worse than any other portable I have owned. Thankfully I have about 18 months left on applecare and I will probably want a new computer by then anyway.

I have had zero problems out of my iphone4 and I get better reception. Places my 3Gs would get no service I'm able to now make calls.

Facetime is awesome! If you don't want to use wifi you can use Fring and make video calls over 3G.

I've tried to drop calls by holding/covering the lower left hand corner and have been unable to do so. I can get the bars to drop (soemtimes), but have not been able to drop a call this way.

I haven't heard any of my friends/family complain about any of the issues that are swarming the internet.

I have had zero problems with my phone. If anything, this version is far better than the 3G I had been using for the past 2 years.
Battery life is way better, no dropped calls, and the load time on my apps has been cut in half.

I am waiting to use facetime, but once my bf gets his white iphone we will be using it all of the time.
