Upgraded to iPhone 3G

So less than 2 weeks after I proudly proclaimed my reluctance to upgrade to iPhone 3G (see comments here), I went out and bought an iPhone 3G, the 8GB version.

Extra iPhone charge not over yet

(This is a follow up to my other post titled "Extra iPhone charge".)

Extra iPhone charge

For the past 2 weeks I had been ticked off at my iPhone. Well, not directly at the device but for the trouble it had caused me.
