A pox on you, Apple Marketing!

Uh, Steve & Co, you have other customers in addition to the no job having or independently wealthy mobs who have nothing better to do than stand in line for 24+ hours to get their hands on the iPhone 3G. How about helping out the other fans-of-the-iPhone, those of us work-at-home or stay-at-home moms who can’t possibly stand in line with the other schmucks since we’re mothering and working and reading about all the cool features of the new iPhone! I’ve been waiting to get one since I heard the first buzz about the dropped price and the 3G features (not to mention the Apps!). I understand you want to cut out the hacking and keep the contracts streamlined, but why not let me buy the phone online, sign the freakin’ two year contract (heck, I’ll sign a 10 year contract!) and set up my phone from the comfort of my home-office chair? From what I’ve heard, many people had to go home yesterday anyway and finish the phone setup from home. Umm - I could already be a proud iPhone 3G owner/user, Steve, but NO, now, I’m going to have figure out how to get back in a stinky line three days after the launch date. Great. If I don’t get a phone, man. My patience is wearing thin! Help out us tech geek mothers who aren’t able or willing to torture our children by camping out in front of a store. There’s got to be a better way! :)

Still a fan,
iMother
