In Russia, iPhone sents you.
In Soviet Russia you are actually funny
In Soviet Russia, a bad joke makes you! (and me)
In Russian, the lame joke you typed would have made "sents" grammatically.
USA! USA!
Best comment:
'I think your marriage has a glitch' - Handling the complex issue at hand with tact and decorum.
"Well, if you must know ... it was a close-up shot of him pleasuring himself taken at the exact moment of maximum pleasure."
i say, wtf?!
"why would someone take a raunchy picture of themselves with an iPhone without having the intention of sending it to someone?"
"Its a glitch, but only happens if the pic is sufficiently raunchy."
I like the part when people posted helpful comments, like those above (although the first one is pretty helpful).
Can with have a rating option for news posts too (like the comments)
so I can Low Rank this one?
WTF was that nonsense about?
Slow news day,?
Oh well..can't rate you down but can AD-Block you....
Oh, no, you wouldn't!
...
OH MAN! You're so naughty! ;)
Since when do you come to a *blog* to read *news*?
I got a chain e-mail saying that if I don't send this to 50 people in 10 minutes a monster is going to come kill me and harvest my body for Stem Cell Research....
That lie is just as qualified to be a story on here as the first lie... I demand "media" attention.
Seriously? This is the funniest thing I've seen on engadget in days. Granted, it's not news, but it is funny.
Yeah... just laugh as you like. You're not the one with your genitals all over the Internets...
that poor soul
Why didn't he just say the picture and e-mail was work-related. He could have told her it was a picture of a cow's udder squirting milk. The iPhone camera is so bad she probably would have fell for it.
I love the T-Mobile iPhone...fight the power!
Wait...you're probably in Europe....my bad.
Defintely Europe. USA T-mobile doesn't get the ... after it. That's because Germany's would show up as T-Mobile DT which puts it over.
That would probably be T-mobile DE, not DT. The TLD for Deutschland is also .de
I am not sure what is worse...the man's pathetic lie or the woman's ignorance that she had to consult an Apple discussion board.
So how about them Greenjeans???
This guy must imagine that the woman is a complete moron? Or maybe he is...
The woman is a complete moron... she bought it enough to go online, subscribe to forums, and ask... pretty funny if you ask me
The only thing that has a glitch now is her marriage.
I dont see how this is a big deal. What did he gain or lost by telling her this. OK OK.. it PRETENDS to send the mail, but dosnt.. maybe hes just an idiot. ADMIT NOTHING... and don't pose for stupid photos!
Best story to wake up to, ever.

"Buddy, we hope you get what you deserve."
...a medal?
Good news or not, this is just funny.
Choppy Choppy Pee Pee.
I know some girls who are so stupid that when their boyfriend tells them an excuse for evidence even MORE damning and obvious than this they actually believe it.
I'm going to give Susan credit for not being as dumb as many people.
Reminds me if Eddie Murphy in Raw.

A friend of mine had a fling with an English girl while on vacation. They had lots of fun with each other. He then sent a very detailed email back to his homeboys in Japan. Only he accidentally sent it to his girlfriend back home. So far so bad. I kind of thought he was doomed but later, I learned that he had told her he made all this stuff up in order to impress his friends; she believed him; they were still together. Pretty incredible.
Just to play devil's advocate here, but we only have a small part of the woman's side of the story. Maybe she is crazy? Maybe she cheated on him? Maybe there are things happening there that none of us know about? I love how everyone is so quick to pass judgment without knowing any of the back story.
Wow, whats he got his auto check to? I can hardly get it to check the inbox much less the sent folder.
this should be on failblog.org, not here in engadget.
yes but it involved an iPhone so of course it would be on engadget....
Genius Bar? WTF?
No, by no means will the iPhone be able to send anything without your previous concent. Just look here:

[evil grin]
So this is what it takes to be featured in Engadget? lol
If she is for real, she should go viral with his pic and send it to everyone he knows and not.
I wasted my time reading this blog.

Yes, I can click the Read link too.
a simple "that link is the 'read' button" would suffice. but thanks for comin' out.
These apple people are so creative in their denial about stuff.
I for one thought the "glitch" was a pretty funny and desperate bit of hokum. The fact that the wife had to go online to ask means they are both tards...
eh, not really. compared to the readers of this blog maybe, but i'm sure a few of my older family members would have bought it.
If she's 'tarded then hopefully she can be a pilot someday.
Ha ha ha ha!
I do feel bad for the woman... but that is one of the most hilarious stories I've read on here in a while! Her husband must REALLY think she's an idiot.
What a great way to start my day. =P
i just have to post my bad joke, apologies in advance...
this is what happens when your iphone is not touched enough, it wants you to look at it's iballs
People are this dumb? Really? Why can't I find a woman this naive?!
