Totally unrelated to the topic, but where did you get the blue water drops background on that one? It's fantastic.
Soooooooooo....let me get this straight you honestly believe that Best Buy will have the WHITE iPhone 4 on launch AFTER even though Apple have said differently
Honestly it's all up in the air I haven't got a call yet saying my pre-order is cancelled and I'm number 32 if they do send 10 of each model so I see from that dude that works at a best buy then that's stupid 10 each per store that's bs don't beleive that for a second if they are going to only send that many thy might as well not send them it's just crazy if they do that but like I said all stores are diffrent. It's all pretty crazy apple should have had there **** together on this one. I hope BB comes thro in the clutch tho.
of course this is an blog bc BB told me it was a blog and if they said that there right and it wud be stupid if thy were lying bout it because i dont like to use the period key ever and all in all thats all i have
That was really mean on my part and, one day, I'll be judged.
Lol that's funny. The word Blog is short for web log. Basically a Blog is just an area set aside to write articles that can easily be accessed. Also periods are stupid personally when I am typing from my iPhone just a waste of time for me if people can't understand it without periods then that sucks. Period
Ok I'm new at this blogging thing but this is my personal thought on the matter. I recently called my local BestBuy Store where in fact I did pre-order a 32g white iPhone 4 on the 15th of June when I called they told me the same thing they told me the day I went in to pre-order. That yes they will have the white models but there are only going to be a limited amount in stock on launch day if anything changes then they will call you and let you know I hear people have started getting calls already happy I haven't yet
first off that is a wall of text
hit return once in a while
it soothes my eyes
also, you are waaaaaaay too trusting of your local BB and you are also missing some vital news so prepared to be disappointed
BB stopped taking preorders for white because they realized Apple wasnt taking them, if you already preordered for white bfore that they either switched you to black, or, in your case, haven't said anything and will give you the 32nd white iPhone they get, it just won't be on June 24th
I really don't see how people believe places like Best Buy will have a white iPhone and Apple will not, there's a small chance they will be available by launch, but just because BB didn't read a memo that said no white preorders and they messed up, that doesnt mean they confirmed that the white is available on June 24th, it means they f***ed up, another reason not to trust them
Sir, periods are effortless on your iPhone. Just double tap [SPACE] at the end of your sentence to add a period. If you haven't set it up this way, go into Settings > General > Keyboard and turn "." Shortcut on.
This is VERY easy to do. So is a [Return] once in a while to separate your paragraphs. You can do it!
Haha. Yeah, but that's an easily understood wall of text I don't mind reading. AND your message is clear!
Ok well first didn't say I trusted them said they may have it, if they don't they don't whatev but like I said I called today my pre-order is still in they haven't changed my model because they cant. To may black pre-orders to merge.
Anyway I think, I hope they do have them on launch that's why I said I hope they come in clutch. This is how I see it BestBuy is a Hugh company if apple didn't want them to do pre-orders for the white models wouldn't you think someone would have called from apple or something to like BestBuys's HQ and told them stop and cancel all white pre-orders buy now I'm pretty sure they have the right to do that so like did they? If so then why haven't they call me or my friends in diffrent states. Communication can't be that hard.
They did, Best Buy stopped preorders for white a long time before black, before it was plausible for them to have run out, because, here's where i take an educated guess and not fact, Apple did send out a letter that said "do not allow white iPhone preorders yet", yet Best Buy did not read this letter at the start of the day, and then Apple saw that they were allowing white iPhone preorders and so they called them up and told them to stop.
Many people in your situation have gone up and asked and gotten similar responses as to "You have preordered a white iPhone and you will get that white iPhone, however we are unaware at this point as to which date these iPhones will come in" hinting towards a later than June 24th date, but they really have no more of an idea than we do right now.
Awesome wall of text sir lol ok I know it's a wall of text but I don't care. Its the Internet on a site that means nothing but random posts and rumors. I can see if I was doing a term paper but I'm not. You can read it and you can understand it that's all I'm going for lol everyone can do whatever they like have periods or don't have any but to get upset about it is stupid.
That's just the problem. You can't understand run on sentences and garbled language. If you want to be an effective communicator, you don't have to have perfect grammar and punctuation, but at least break up your thoughts with periods and paragraphs.
Understandable I knew that's what happened but all I am saying is that I haven't gotten a call yet nor has my friends in another state they said there 5th, 6th,& 7th in line to pre-order a 32g white model if it's here on the 24th cool if not that's cool too but like I said I hope they do. Its all In the air until we get there on the 24th.
I bet 99% of the people on this DIDN'T even bother to read it because it is a wall of text. I skipped right over it and read all the other replies. I want people to read what I write, don't you?
There is nothing stupid about punctuation. Nothing. It makes the world go 'round.
Me too. Began to read the first "sentence" that went on, and on... then gave up. See how succinct statements are catchier to the eye, Karmaguy?
