- Network Lock-in
AT&T or nothing? In a lot of places, it's hard to tell the difference.
- Walled Garden
Only Jobs-approved apps, and only via the App Store. How un-Internetty.
- Bum Battery
Many 3GS owners have to charge their devices every day, spurring the Los Angeles Times to dub the 3GS' disappointing battery the "iDrain." Ouch.
- Weak Camera
One would expect the iPhone to have the most advanced cell-phone camera around. One would be very wrong. Better now than before, but still not great.
- Dock Incompatibility
3G models don't fit in the older iPhone's dock. This is like coming home with a new baseball glove and discovering it only has room for four fingers.
- Overheating Handsets
Some iPhone 3GS users have reported white casings on their phones developing brown burn marks. Apple's response? It cautioned users against operating the 3GS on hot days.
- Buggy Visual Voice Mail
Users report not being alerted to messages for days, inability to access voice mails by clicking from voice mail lists.
- Uneven Apps
Many useful, many less so. Example: a gardening app fails to tap the GPS to provide regionally-appropriate planting tips.
- So-so Phone
Maybe one of those app developers should write something to improve call quality.
- Smug Users
You bought a cool phone, people, you didn't build it. Get over yourselves.
