If you are in the market for an iPhone, you may want to wait a little longer. There is no doubt this is one of the most innovative products delivered in a long time, but as with anything new, you can have issues. Apple Hound has compiled a list of about 70 current bugs/issues with the iPhone. They even documented how to reproduce the issues (This should save Apple some time). I’ve owned an iPhone since day one and have only come across a few of these issues. Some I didn’t even realize until I read the list. They are so minor, I don’t even care to notice them.

The point is, now that 500,000+ iPhones have been placed in users hands, I’m sure Apple is scrambling to address most of these bugs. In fact, they released press today to address the battery report issues (which I didn’t notice?). Should you wait buy an iPhone? My answer would be… Hell No!

If you’re upset about the bugs, price or the AT&T monopoly… Well, I guess you’ll have to pick up an iWipe and wait a little longer…

Now that the iPhone is launched and you’re lucky to own this gorgeous mobile phone. At the heart of the iPhone, it has a functionality of an iPod. So, if you’re planning to use your iPhone while jogging or a work out at the gym. You’ll need a carrying device like the Belkin’s Sport Armband for iPhone.
