I have huge battery problems- really frustrating having to charge it 3x per day.

I actually had a genius bar appointment today to replace the phone but I think I'm gonna cancel just because I don't think there is anything really wrong with the phone.
Ok look, I understand the concept of subsidy and all that, but AT&T is making a huge mistake.

Let's look at the raw numbers.

Assuming you bought an 8GB iPhone for $199- let's say you have some type of texting plan, so let's say your plan averages at about $100 per month.
AT&T pays Apple for each iPhone:

Even if you went with the guy that says ATT pays apple 700 for each phone, ATT has made plenty more than the subsidized cost. (and assuming you have a $20 texting plan, they made $240 of basically pure profit.)

Since last June, when the phone launched, you have paid AT&T over $1200.

AT&T is making a killing on the iPhone, and their investment has paid off tenfold from all the new customers.

If they want to keep that up, they would give existing iPhone users a break.

I hope they'll buckle from all this pressure.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a solid state drive, around 32 to 64GB, for use in my web server. The drive will contain my web sites and the operating system, either Windows Server 2008 R2 or Ubuntu. Large storage is handled by a separate RAID array, so capacity is not an issue. Rather, I am looking for the fastest, longest-lasting, and most reliable drive under $150 that is suitable to my application. Any thoughts? Thanks!"
