Yesterday I posted a comment re: crappy Verizon service for my Q that bit the dust in San Francisco on the Destination Q post. The tale of Q woe continues...

After spending an hour on the phone with a VZW agent trying to figure out why the new device that was swapped out won't ring with my number, he determined that the in store agent had given me a Q that was already activated on someone else's account.

I don't know how a shiny, new, out of the box device could already be activated, just call me lucky. When asked if the Q seemed to be generating a lot of problems, the agent said that they seemed to be giving out quite a few activated Qs. I have to go back to the store to get another device because the ESN code from my Q in Atlanta is the same as the Q that was swapped out in SF. To be continued...

I would imagine that I would have received better customer service at Destination Q for my newborn Q that decided to die than at the Verizon store in San Francisco.

I hit the power button on Bart after landing at SFO this morning. After hanging on the VZW startup screen for five minutes, the screen started to flicker. I yanked the battery and tried again with the same results three more times before heading to the nearest store.

45 minutes later, they finally gave me a new Q after intimating that I should wait until I flew back home on Friday. Bet the Moto XPRT would have helped me recover my data...
Happy Birthday! Keep up the outstanding work. Let me know when the Dharma, sorry, I mean, Darpa sharks get their laser attachments...
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I own an iPhone 3G and I'm looking for a decent speaker / alarm clock for it. I am going to listen music in a mid-sized room, so I want nice quality speakers with solid bass. I also want to use it as an alarm clock, so it would be great if there is such a feature. The price can be low-mid to mid-high range. I was looking at the Klipsch iGroove SXT; it's powerful, slick and the reviews are good, but it doesn't have an alarm clock feature. It's no deal breaker if I can set it up from the iPhone, but I'm not sure. Thanks!"
