I love how everyone assumes we have all the information, but for some reason we stay so tight lipped.  Look, us at the store usually are the biggest fans for Apple Inc. and we read every blog about Apple (its kinda sick with the amount of stuff we read), and we are frustrated that we have no info.  But just like our company, we get info at the same time as the rest of the world!!!!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Red Delicious Apple]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 30th 2008 11:38PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Apple sends iPhone 3G FAQ to retail employees: play dumb over activation]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/30/apple-sends-iphone-3g-faq-to-retail-employees-play-dumb-over-ac/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/30/apple-sends-iphone-3g-faq-to-retail-employees-play-dumb-over-ac/</guid><description><![CDATA[Sales of the 3G are going to be disappointing. Lots of us who bought the original iPhone feel screwed by the price drops...who knows what goodies Apple will announce in 60 days.<br>Also, if you already have an iPhone, is double the data speed on 3G worth re-buying the same device? Edge is so slow, even at double the speed it's not good enough. I enjoy my Wi-Fi connections and won't usually wait for a web page on Edge....tooo slow.<br>Apple has proven this year that it can build a great product and at the same time, piss off all the customers who ran out and bought it at 3 times the price of the next gen one less than 1 year later.<br>Also, if you are forced to use AT&T, even worse. I have 2 iPhones, 1 on T-Mobile (ziphone.org hacked) and the other is with AT&T. Guess which one I use more....]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[socalfrank]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 1st 2008 12:40PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
