11. Putting the correct one would earn lpbk2713 a quick FBI visit.
So the inaccuracy is understandable.

4. Does any one else find it hard to believe
that El-Rusbo calls businesses directly and seeks their advertising dollars?


"Hi, this is Rush. Have you considered broadening the appeal of you product the the racist and mindless hoards over whom I hold sway? Can you really afford to turn your back on this pliant army of ditto-zombies who'll buy whatever I say?"

10. I dont have a 4, but i would still own one with that problem
To me, its a perfectly designed device. If the 4 has that one flaw, i would take it. My contract doesn't expire until next year though so im sure ill get the next whatever.
