Completely satisfied apple fans please post here!

So I upgraded me and my wife from our iPhone 3G 16gb's to 16gb iPhone 4's on Tuesday. First we upgraded both of our 3G's to iOS 4.0 using a PC with iTunes 9.2 with no issues and loved the new features (at least the few that were available on the 3G).
She's in PA right now and I'm in SC so we tried FaceTime right away. She used it outside the house in PA and I used it upstairs in SC (router is downstairs) and I don't think I could have been more blown away by the quality. We've been using it ever since.
I can't say enough about the speed of iPhone 4 too. I use it to track my finances, having to switch between apps like pocket money, docs to go and calc multiple times and iPhone 4 made it work with ease.
I'm truly sorry to hear anyone is having problems and maybe grateful that I am not, but to Apple: keep putting out these great products! I love seeing all the other smartphones 2nd rate attempts at trying to replicate the features.
Good luck everyone and try to appreciate the craftsmanship and engineering behind this handset rather than bashing it.
There has to be more satisfied and maybe even impressed customers out there, right?!?

iPhone 4, iPhone 3g and iMac, iOS 4

We have two IPhone4s that we got through UPS from AT&T. No problems so far.

I just don't get what all the fuss is about. Put a case on it and the problem is solved. A case will also give you better odds from damage if you accidentally drop your phone.

helps people feel good about their purchase instead of bashing it by finding any little fault to complain about. True, there's no real problem to be solved here, but really are there any REAL problems out there?

I'll tell you what it helps, it helps people know that all the iPhones aren't faulty. So that means you may be able to exchange when stock of iPhone are up in stores and get one that works correctly. There will always be manufacturing problems and with all the press it makes it seem like everyone is having reception problems.

My only beef has been the incompatibility of the iPhone 4 with the Magellan Car Kit. But that's not Apple's fault. Otherwise, I couldn't be happier with the new phone.

I wanted to get an iphone 4 and was looking forward to my first iphone.

I even had my order ready to buy online but I just can't pull the trigger.

The thing is Sprint and Verizon are making great phones now that do give Apple real competition.

I am a Mac user so the iphone makes sense.

I wonder if the iphone 4 problems are being overblown or if its really more widespread and will require a recall.

I have a iPhone 4 and I use bluetooth to connect with my 2006 BMW330i. I have had no problems at all. None of the antenna problems that have been so exhaustively described here. The web sites all work in Safari (except Flash!!) as they should and some special software I use for work operates as it should The wifi is fast, the proximity sensor works as it should. No freezes or stops of any kind. Am I just lucky or are there lots of people like me with a perfectly fine iPhone4 out there? I think the latter is true.

Steve
