iPhone = Potato

Potato

I’m getting a lot of feedback both from my readers, on twitter, on forums and around the web, that iPhone coverage is too much. What can I say? I’m a part of it. If you’re tired of iPhone news, here’s a suggestion: Replace the word “iPhone” with “potato” in every story you read from here on out. Here, let me help you out. Here’s TUAW’s story on the iPhone battery replacement plan, remixed:

Apple released information on the potato battery’s warranty today, as well as the cost of a replacement.

Out of the box, your potato battery is covered for 1 year. Apple intends to release Apple Care for potato sometime this summer (allegedly). Customers of Apple Care for potato will be entitled to a new battery IF the one they’re using drops to below 50% of capacity before their Apple Care runs out.

Otherwise, a new one will cost you $79US. One other note: Apple states that they get rid of dead batteries in “…an environmentally-friendly manner.” So don’t get all excited, Greenpeace.

That should give you a little chuckle. Here’s another to tickle your fancy. Here’s Engadget’s story regarding a smashed ~~iPhone~~ potato:

What happens when a shiny new potato meets the edge of a table? You guessed it — that nasty piece of business up above. Fans, we know it looks painful, and haters, we know you’re loving it, but we should all have a little sympathy for the unlucky guy who made this mess completely by accident when he tried to answer his potato while it was still plugged in, causing the short cable to whip Apple’s glass-screened device right out of his hands. Don’t fret too much though, because the kind folks at Apple apparently replaced the smashed potato for free, and as far as we know, the gentleman learned several valuable lessons.

So I added a few more potatoes, so what. So people, please, relax. It’s just a phone. It’s just a stupid phone. Not a religion, not global warming, not health care, but a stupid phone. Go out, get some fresh air, and realize that life’s priorities shouldn’t involve condemning what other people buy. kthnx. buh-bye now.
