I'm rocking a blackberry that I found in an old car of mine. No sim card in it though as Apple make sims stupid sizes.

I used a blackberry while I was waiting, managed to get my micro sim working in it by just lining it up in the slot with the sim pins, should work with nano sim you'll just struggle getting it back out

Pay for this repair £ 152.27 +tax
Since your product is outside of coverage, you'll need to pay for the repair.
Have Apple return the product to you unrepaired
If you choose not to pay for the repair, Apple can send your product back to you.
Talk to Apple about your options
You can talk to someone in Apple Support to learn more about your options.

Useless cunts. Never getting another iphone, ever again.

Apple are in process of sending a new one as it stopped charging, may have been due to dropping it a few times

That's why.

I don't think many manufacturers replace products damaged by user error tbh.

Should have taken them up on the £30 exchange.

Still pissed me off, they're sending it back. I've just asked for a new charger too, they said no

Useless.

I thought you just walk into apple store, they give you a reacharound and a new phone no questions asked? I'm disappointed. Disappointed and upset for Whittie

They wanted credit card details too incase there was damage to the phone.

Probably better with a 3310 than the BlackBerry

True, i'm unsure why I took it with me today, not only does it have no sim card, it wasn't even charged

Whittie - What's the plan now, see if you can get it repaired somewhere or you just going to jump ship?

Only if its faulty, not if it's damaged.

Was it the camera that's nackered? Or other stuff to?

It's more of a cross between a 'to do' app like 'Clear' and an email app, more for people who use their inbox like a to-do list I guess. The idea is that you keep your inbox at zero.

Plus it's really nice to look at and use IMO.

Has downfalls though, like you have to join a queue to get it due to high demand (they route everything through their servers) and only works with Gmail currently.

Essentially allows you to take an email and attach a schedule/'timer'/alert to it so you will be notified of that email at a later point. Apart from that and its nice UI (ie - typical GMail/other mail app swipe gestures), it's no real different to any other decent email app.
Potentially useful if you use your emails as a job-list, as Ash pointed out, but you can already do something similar with labels/tags.

It's a niche app though and i'm surprised Dropbox stumped up the cash for it, especially when email providers can easily add that functionality into their own apps.
