Apple - will they ever learn? Not, it seems.
I have a solution to solve all the problems of the iphone battery life!
"mini petrol engine"
Run's on petrol (gas) for 2 years without refilling. And run as many apps in the background you want.
Problem SOLVED!!!
Now only if Apple integrates this engine into the next iPhone and iPod Touch and wins the many lawsuits that will come from the environmentalists who will come down on apple's throat and go against Al Gore who will oppose this technology.

Hmmm...
Device with no overheating and promo picture with dirty fingernails -yep, that's definitely not Apple.
This whole affair is so typical of them. I've had a white 'CrackBook', it was running hot all the time and noisy. As mine was the 2nd generation, discolouration was not an issue. When the unibody MacBooks came out, I was not so wise, so I bought a first-gen Apple product. Big mistake! The display got upgraded, Firewire came back and the battery is now better. Of course, apart from the misaligned keys, I have to put up with constant fan noise, CPU whine and clicking HDD. Oh, and it's running hot, so the battery runtime is not very good either. On my girlfriend's MB Pro, the NVIDIA card is faulty - Apple actually admitted that problem.
Then you have the iPhone cracking problem from day 1...
WHEN WILL APPLE TAKE THE TIME TO TEST A PRODUCT PROPERLY, BEFORE RELEASE?! The profound clash between advertisements and reality is pathetic.
I've had five or six Apple computers in the last few years and I've always felt that they were just prototypes. This is especially true about the unibody MacBook - shame on Apple, releasing a fancy advert that focuses on finish, then providing me with this crap! I am looking forward to the day when we can have OS X or something newer on any hardware, we want. Or at least, on more than one manufacturer's offerings. It's awful being overcharged all the time for the privilege of owning the software.
