Only in America

Seriously....I wish you attorneys, and anyone who signs up all the worst. Thank you for ruining the moral fiber of America. People, this is the cost of being an early adopter. Besides, more than likely, Apple will have a software upgrade in short order that will eliminate this problem. And those of you that think you will "get something" out of this, please; you will get a $20 iTunes store credit and the attorneys will make millions.

So if you sign up, you should be ashamed. Before you flame me for this post, take a minute and think about the true ramification and end result of this class-action lawsuit.
 
man screw them

if yall dont have any respect for apple and dont care then dont buy the dam iphone ...its just that simple..for me steve jobs is god and he know wat he is doing....just shut up and do your work cz yall aint going to get nothig out if it and apple is not a small compnay where a lawsuit is going to cause them to shut it dwn...u poor people bloody KCR aint no one gonna support yall because we love our iphones to death...yall bloody poor people firm dont have nything better to do...just look at the sales figueres 1.7 mill in 3 days...no body gonna support u or ur lawsuit...get the eff outta here before steve jobs shows his color and personally kill yall
 
Really?

How is this lawsuit worthy? Apple aren't refusing returns or anything! If you don't like it, return it! Where is the injustice?
 
I think this is a bit premature. Give them a few weeks, if they don't fix it, then by all means sue them and get us all a free bumper.
 
You're missing the point, it's not just to get the free $5, it's to get Apple to admit there's a problem after seeing that a good 100% of us have issues. I don't care about getting free stuff, it's just like being a witness. That's why I sent them my information with my experience. They just need us to back it up. Yeah, they get money, but they're the one who opened the case in the first place, they're paying the legal fees, not you.

Read the post above yours. This will have the opposite effect of getting Apple to admit there is a problem.
 
This is whats wrong with this country. Sue first mentality. Who did Apple damage with this? If the consumer is unhappy, they can return for a full refund.
 
I like it when SJ responds to emails, but I know his lawyers probably cringe every time he sends out a jerky 1-line response.

I do think it's too soon to start a class action lawsuit, but if Apple cannot or will not fix the problem for the many people that seem to have it then a lawsuit may be the only way to force the issue.
 
And then Apple will pass on that "success" to the consumer with the next product they sell. Yay for us. :rolleyes:

Agreed aggie- some posters have never had dealings with lawyers.

Bad. The people who BOUGHT iPhones should be rewarded. Not lawyers.

Sounds reasonable and accurate.

Sweet, we can all get twenty bucks and be nearly on our way to affording a bumper!

I suppose it would be about < 8.00 Just got a check in the mail this week on an expedia lawsuit I had no idea about. $1.34.

I'm pretty sure the class action suit typically works out more for the lawyers than it does for the people with the problems.

You are correct.

Why? So the lawyers get rich off of Apple's stockholders? Those costs will ultimately come down to the consumers.

Yep
 
Just sent an email to them with explanation of my problem. I don't want money I just want Apple to fix this and for them to realize this is a serious issue and most if not all people are affected...I think some don't want to admit Apple made a mistake.

Then you should be putting preasure on Apple (the people who can actually fix the problem).

Trying to help someone else get rich is not a great use of your time.
 
Damn ambulance chasers

People like that are just a disgrace to their professions.:(
 
LOL more people with nothing better to do.

You couldn't a single lawyer in the US to go after Apple on privacy issues, but less than a week after iPhone launch they want to go after Apple for signal issues?

GTFOOH.
 
Apple brought this upon themselves. The quiet attitude coupled with the snide "hold it a different way" emails just dug the hole deeper.

I have contacted Apple thru the MyApple # and was told they haven't heard about this and I could just exchange it. I Tried that and they had no replacements last night, but I guess thats not going to help anyway...

Now Im at a loss what to do, I love the phone just want it to work correctly.
 
It's not even 1 week yet. Perhaps wait a few days to see if there's a solution?

Anticipated this. :(
Obviously Apple's effort to cloak the new handsets with cases that resembled prior versions kept it from discovering the alleged signal issue. Now's the time to step up and begin handing out free bumpers.

Free 3Gs cloak for all iPhone 4!!! I would take one.

This IS putting pressure on them by bringing it back in the news. This can even effect the stock and then maybe they will SAY SOMETHING!?>?!?!

Contributing to the embarrassment of Apple is all I seek. If I get a bumper too, that's just gravy. Steve brought this on with his infantile responses.
 
This is such BS. Like how stupid are people? This is a relatively minor issue with a remarkable device. You can't sue Apple for something like this. It would be like trying to sue nVidia because Dragon Age isn't running as fast as you had hoped! With a given graphics card, you're either going to have better graphics, or slower speeds. Thats just the reality of the world.

Like, wow. I have never heard so much complaining in my life. Something's got to give somewhere. If they didn't put the antenna on the sides of the phone, then that would mean less features in the phone. Why do so many people not understand this?!?!?

It actually pains me to read all these articles about how Apple pulled a fast one on them. NO PRODUCT IS PERFECT. All that is going to happen is this law firm is going to lose a lot of money and have a ton of angry clients.
 
The phone just barely came out. If someone is unhappy then they should return it already.
