Soft landing... How lucky was that.

Theres only 1 thing I think is rubbish on my Iphone, and that is not being able to use custom sms alert tones.
The rest of the phone has been great with no issues what so ever. And this is coming from someone who isnt an Apple fan at all.

I watched one get run over by a car last night after some drunk idiot had it fall out of his pocket whilst crossing the road. We tried to tell him that he dropped his phone, but he just flipped us the bird.
It wasn't in a good state afterwards.

I love my iPhone 4, but I agree with the SMS tones, have a great app that let's me use a 30 second clip of any song on my phone for a ring tone tho

No so much tough but lucky to have a soft landing
