or maybe thats the latest app - The Call Failed (No Service) App - it is designed so that you don't just pick up the phone and call someone, you need time to formulate your thoughts - here's how it works...
Oh, I need to call Stephen (not a real person), Go to favorites, call - boom Call Failed - full 3g goes down to No Service - now is the time to put your thoughts together, decide WHAT you want to tell Stephen, wait another 30 seconds, and NOW you can place your call.

I believe you misunderstood his comment. His comment was intended to point out your grammatical error of using an apostrophe to indicate a plural. Your use of an apostrophe actually indicates possession, which is the incorrect usage there.

So instead of "CD's" it should be "CDs."

Wrong. It was a huge deal for bloggers who needed something to write about, and it was a huge deal for the haters who didn't / couldn't own iphones as it gave them a stick to use against those more fortunate.

You think lack of copy / paste is on a par with lack or multitouch? Hardly.
